Wow, what a title, you can only guess what this is going to be about. Let me kick off with that reload time, I could fit a whole G7 summit meeting into the time frame that thing takes to reload a magazine. The first perk of the weapon is standard stuff, bonus damage for your last bullet in a clip, if that's what draws you to this Exotic, don't even bother, just save up and buy The Devil You Know or wait 'till it drops at some point. The DoT effect is even less of that than the lingering fire damage from a hunters incendiary grenade. We return to the sluggish reload (No optional perk for added reload speed, are you -blam!-ing serious Bungie?), don't even try to run this unless you're a master sharpshooter with the Chain of Woe Hunter perk. I shouldn't be too hard on that point, at least Bungie was kind enough to throw in an optional perk to super size that dirty stability and cut that ridiculous recoil down. But that point is mooted by the fact that just cause this gun has a gold background and is kind of a pain to acquire they need to set it up that endorsed purples like The Devil you Know or even god forbid The Chance are made better than this. Well, that's the end of that, if you have anything more to contribute to this entitled satirical act of shameless slandering, please do.
The question remains though, is Thorn the most useless Exotic ever and what could be done to improve it?

Its either Thorn or Bad Juju. I havent used Thorn since the day I finished the bounty. It was so underwhelming for my first completed bounty I was literally having cognitive dissonance- why did I spend so much time to get such a crappy gun?
