The Proto-Thorn is a weapon created by Enkaar, the Anointed as the prototype to a new line of Lighteater weapons the Hive could use to close off Guardians to the Light. After the destruction of its manufacturer by the The Guardian in a showdown in the depths of the Jetsam of Saturn, the weapon would be claimed by the Guardian and taken back to the Drifter for safe keeping.
Gameplay[edit]
Unlike its previous counterparts, the Proto-Thorn was a much more dangerous variant of the Soulfire Rifle that could instantly kill a Guardian in one shot. Its charge was much quicker, taking only a second to charge and instantly fire, making it harder to retaliate.
Trivia[edit]
- Despite the Proto-Thorn being a Void weapon, the tracer it fired was blue.
