Honestly have grown to hate this weapon since I have benched it. Now it's all about the last word for small maps. And Hopscotch Pilgrim for ranged maps.
Anyone else finally bench the thorn? I hope the nerf kills it personally. Haha.
What's your load outs these days?
Edit: I appreciate all the replies guys. Thanks for keeping it respectful.
-
I've benched it a while ago. It's TLW and sniper all the way....
-
I actually scrapped the bounty because I wanted bad juju more and I don't like handcannons. Now wish I could get it just for collectors sake
-
Last Word and Thorn have been in the vault for months now... then again, so has the entire game. Lol
-
Yeah, not that it's any better but TLW
-
Yes im tired of the fuçking hatemail. Like honestly i used it one game last week and 3/6 people from the opposing team messaged me
-
Am I the only one that wants "Rose?" The Exotic that was Thorn before it was corrupted.

-
I use the last word or my sweet ass blue pulse rifle crackerjack.beta
-
I've moved over to my MIDA for PvP and now people don't hate my guts!
-
Unless you have to, don't use exotic handcannons. Start using pulses. I will be using Red Death when the patch comes out. HC's will be getting a heavy nerf.

I benched my Thorn in the Dark Below days. I mained The Last Word in HoW. Now. I am trying to play with skill and determination and actually trying to have lasting gun fights where i don't feel i'm cheating. My nornal setup today includes The Summoner Auto Rifle And the Queen's Breakers Bow. I also don't use my Jolder's Hammer or Proximity Full Blat Radius Rocket Launchers anymore. I use a middle tier LMG now. The 'MG18 Harm's Way'so I'm not too overpowered. I want them to kill The Last Word and Thorn. I love them dearly...a little too much, i have a longing to part ways with them and remember them in a state of nostalgia. The guns I love, are the guns i hate.
-
Benched my NLB.I slayed too much people with it.
-
So bench the thorn and use last word? Am I missing something? Was the point not to stop using glitchy op hand cannons?
-
Why did I think of this when I read your title?
-
I used mine and had fun with it. Ive done equally well with things like mida pilgrim nl shadow last word. Prolly use it a little after the patch to see the diff but put it back on the bench after that
-
Mine was aways benched from the day I got it. I maxed it and stored it pretty quickly. I've had it for quite some time now, but I had Hawkmoon way earlier than Thorn, and personally, Hawkmoon is just more ideal for my tastes. Thorn's ability was appealing, but Hawkmoon just felt better to me. Thorn just couldn't compare to the Hawkmoon for me. Burn or no burn, it was lackluster in comparison.
-
To be honest I use mine in the vault of glass at conflux part The op rounds go through targets and if you hit a critical shot on a hobgoblin the damage overtime kills it after the immune So works quite good especially when your the only one left alive on left or right
-
You. Are. A. -blam!-ing. Idiot. Thorn is still a great gun. In my opinion, it is one of the best guns in the game. People are just -blam!-ing retards. At first, Thorn wasn't a good gun because it was bad for both long range gunfights and CQB, being outmatched by Hawkmoon and Last Word, respectively. Then when they patched it, everybody was about this gun. When HoW came out, everyone used it in Trials. But when Bungie noticed this, they had to crack down on the gun to keep the playing field even. And not just Thorn was affected. A whole bunch of Exotics were toned down because of player abuse, including Hawkmoon, Ice Breaker, Gjallarhorn, etc. The thing people need to realize is that this isn't Halo anymore. If the community is plagued by something, Bungie will create a cure. They won't let something like you; a Thorn in their side, get in the way.

My Loadout most of the time is Red Death, Shadow of Veils or Party crasher and Tomorrows answer
-
Long time ago screw that gun.
-
I've been using Hopscotch Pilgrim for a few months. It has never left my primary slot in PVP since then.
-
I hope it doesn't die.. It was the only weapon I really wanted before launch.. I was so bummed when I could get it and so -blam!-ing happy when I did
-
Stranger's rifle ftw bro. Or I might switch it up with the scholar. Pulse and scout rifles are just more fun to at with to me
-
Once I got my first Messenger (Void) I use it as my main Primary. I love the messenger so much that I have all three burns and a Kinetic one for giggles. I stopped using thorn almost two months ago.
-
I go assault rifle/ sniper

A loooooong time ago
