+1 fire damage to a thorn is a massive increase, and takes the place of a ridiculous amount of attack bonus'. If you are going to use level 1 units, whip of fire and poisoned dagger are definitely the way to go.
I think the most ridiculous was my warrior with Astral bow, whip/dagger, and bowmen. 6-8 damage base damage (covering a myriad of damage types). Yowza.
Edit: So let me be more specific on the +1 fire damage. This increases your average damage from 1.5 to 2.5 for thorn hunters. This is a 67% increase in damage. That is about 20 points of attacks worth (From equal attack to defense).
