My Personal Issues since Update 1.0.3

Hey everyone. vVvDARK WOLFvVv here. I take no pleasure in having to post about this, so I will make it quick. [u][i][b]Map Issues[/b][/i][/u] For starters, The map Blind Watch, I feel like was completely ruined in the worst way possible when the points were moved in control, In my first 3 games since patch (all of which were on blind watch) it quickly becam apparent that it had turned into a grenade heavy map, in of which the only answer was grenades due to the fact that the control points are now located in either a very narrow path or in a corner where there is limited options for tactics. the way it was set up before, it felt like these points being in defensible areas made team coordination that much more important. now its who ever can throw 3 grenades in to a white circle and count the kills for the team. Also originally the map felt like it particularly stood apart because while mostly it was close quarters oriented, you could still find very specific sight lines to snipe with based on map movement. and moving the points disrupted that map movement making using a short range sniper rifle ineffective at most points on the map. I WOULD talk more about the other maps, but the only two maps i was able to play on today were Blind Watch and Last Light, and nothing too severe happened to Last Light. I will edit in more as i get exposure to other maps. [u][i][b]Weapon Balancing[/b][/i][/u] Ok, whether they were intentional or not, the fact remains that The Last Word and Thorn are now weaker as a result of this update. The Last Word, at least in my experience, went from 3-4sk to what feels like a 6-7sk. And that is just rediculous! It shouldnt take more than half my clip to get a kill! The Thorn. My hand cannon baby. The gun that i worked my ass off to get through the exotic bounty. and worked even harder to level up. is now COMLPLETELY useless in pvp. more specifically the poison damage going from 7 damage per tic, to 3! of ALL of the weapons that DIDN'T need a nerf, the thorn was number one on that list! In fact i seem to recall hearing about the thorn getting a BUFF, It shouldn't take me more than THREE shots to get a kill with that weapon. Period. and today it took me FIVE. that's almost the ENTIRE MAGAZINE! Sorry, that got a bit ranty there, but seriously Bungie, as much as i want to see blind watch reverted to its original state, the hand cannons that were nerfed need to be rebuffed IMMEDIATELY! And if this nerf was indeed unintentional, it ESPECIALLY needs to be fixed before the iron banner event tomorrow! I am sure that i am not the only one who thinks this, and I heed the community to support me on this issue and help me get it resolved as quickly as possible! As always, any and all feedback from anyone is appreciated, the more the better if it can get this in the eyes of those who need to see it! Post your own quarrels about the update as well, get it all out there! See Y'all Starside! Also, still no TL;DR's
