I also hope they feel fresh to you @daerksiea. We often start the characters with a gameplay concept in mind (elven archer, laser samurai katana vampire, gentleman robot sniper, etc), but we often keep tuning the character until they really come to be their own thing.

Again, I has the faith that it will be an awesome game. I hope I have a PS4 by the time of release.
By the way, check out this Thorn Cosplay in progress!
Looks good so far. Be interesting to see how she makes the pauldrons and the bow.

Yeah I know, but you always seem to be 2 steps ahead in finding info.
Who else would have the audacity to check the official site? 
In that video Ghostrobo said he’s played that section 3 times at e3 and 7 at Comic Con. So I rushed to his YouTube channel hoping he had vids of all 10.
Sadly he did not.
He also seems to be the only youtube person to record their own footage, all the others just use the stock footage from 2K.

does anyone know if Thorn has a Russian accent or not?
I highly doubt it.
Why are you asking about that accent for Thorn specifically?
Actually… from the gameplay footage, I’ve been delving in, she does sound russian.

If you watch this video, the Battleborn do talk to each other and she’s the only female on the team. (comprised of Rath, Montana, Oscar Mike and Miko.) Adding to this, her real name is Teshka (via the Battleborn site), the Eldrid could be based on Eastern Europe and Asian countries. Look at Mellka, Miko and Boldur.

Did you guys know thorn used to be a pet class character. her ultimate ability used to be her pet dog/wolf ‘Scalewolf’, “a lightning fast canine companion that hones in on and devastates targets.” (from Game Informer Arcticle)
I wonder why they ditched it, it was probably op.
I asked a very similar question in another thread. It was ditched, I’m conflicted about it. As much as I hate pets in game, it seemed really cool.
Updated the OP, I need to add comentary
Now its really updated, apparently I didn’t save last time
I must agree with you i am not a fan of Zer0 but i am really excited about thorn personally i dont think she is a sniper class i feel like you must stay back a little but she will be more effective running around and causing havoc than just sniping away.
Zer0 never really peaked my interests because every time i tried using him i never found any abilities that i found really fit my playing style
Ah, the Scalewolf.
One of those things that we just ran out of time to land at the quality bar we wanted. I think even as late as last fall in the first Story mission demo, you could see Thorn release her ult burst as a spirit version of the wolf. We pulled that back to it’s current state due to technical reasons.
Pets are awesome, but technically a pain in the ass. Doesn’t mean we won’t ever try them again, but for now…Thorn has to be awesome in other ways.

Thanks for the explanation, Randy. I had a feeling that was the reason.
New Thorn gameplay =)
