When it comes to classic Destiny Exotic weapons it doesn\u2019t get much more iconic than Thorn. First introduced in the original Destiny it has remained a key figure in PvP ever since. However, Thorn has struggled to perform in PvE with it not offering much over its competitors. Even the Hand Cannon buff in Season of the Deep didn\u2019t elevate it much. Looking to improve its performance in PvE, Bungie has announced the following Thorn Buff. Picking up a Remnant can overflow the magazine, up to 40 rounds max. &#8211; This is in addition to its new catalyst also coming in Season 23 which provides +20 Range, +10 Stability, and buffs Remnants making them provide additional Range, Handling, and Mobility. Huge Thorn PvE buffs are coming in Destiny 2 Season 23 After announcing the Thorn buffs coming in Season 23, Destiny 2 players couldn\u2019t help but get excited at the prospect of a Thorn PvE meta. Caught off guard by the buffs one fan posted on Reddit: \u201cI\u2019m sorry\u2026 what?! This is going to be insane.\u201d Others were quick to rejoice with them replying \u201cThat\u2019s crazy pulls Thorn out of vault,\u201d and \u201c\u2018You\u2019ve yee\u2019d your last haw, bucko\u2019 said the hunter, unloading the 32nd bullet from his 9 bullet magazine.\u201d \u201cThorn is probably gunna be a PvE monster. Never having to reload because you keep picking up remnants instead,\u201d another Guardian responded looking forward to Season 23. By far the most common response revolved around a certain Warlock Exotic with replies including: \u201cNecrotic Grip mains are eating GOOD,\u201d and \u201c\u2026I\u2019m more excited to use Thorn with Necrotic Grips. Doesn\u2019t require a weapon swap and the added poison damage is gonna be nice.\u201d With Osteo Striga set for a sizable nerf, Necrotic Grip users need to find a replacement. The alternatives looked underwhelming beforehand but this Thorn buff might be the saving grace Warlock mains needed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Destiny 2 fans thrilled by Thorn buffs that will make it a \u201cPvE monster\u201d Despite Thorn being a PvP-focused weapon the upcoming buffs for the Exotic Hand Cannon in Season 23 will see it rise to the top of Destiny 2\u2019s PvE meta too and Guardians are excited.
