Guild Wars 2

Hi ANet, i must say that GW2 is the best game I’ve played so far.
I thought that the steal tool from thieves should have more variety of skills, i’m not saying that the ones that actually exist are poor, but…
For example in PvP when you steal from an elementalist you always get the same skill, i suggest adding a diferent skill per different tipe of element, or when you steal from an engineer that is using a flamethrower or a grenade kit, or any other kit you get a different skill for each kit that the engineer is using at the moment you steal from him.
That would be really awesome.
And regarding the EXP rewards… as i said before guild wars 2 is the best game I’ve played, and that’s why i don’t it to finish so quick, i feel like you give TOO much exp rewards, but that’s not a bad thing, the bad thing i believe is the AMOUNT, you lvl way to fast, i think that if you lower the amount of exp gained from everything you do, you can enjoy the game way better, anyway, it’s just my opinion, i hope it’s usefull for you.
See you

Steal used to be somewhat what you described it should be. It was unreliable and much worse as a profession specific skill. It’s a lot better now, and can be used strategically. However, it still has room for improvement…just not in the manner you’re looking for.

The point of GW/GW2 was never about leveling. Grinding is not how a game should be played. I think the EXP rewards are fine as they are.

I believe there should be either:

• Four separate steal skills you can use and keep as they change:
  • Using any of the Steals or Stolen Items would disable the other Steals and Stolen Items for 20 seconds.
  • Using an Stolen Item would recharge that slot for 60 seconds.
  • Traits would be rebalanced accordingly.
    This way you can strategically keep the ones you want for later.

or

• Stealing should get you 4 skills.
  1. The stolen item, right away, instantly, the same as now.
  2. A skill that stealths self for couple of seconds starting disabled by 2 seconds.
  3. A shadow step back to where you were before stealing, starting disabled for 5 seconds.
  4. An additional shadow step that starts disabled for 10 seconds.
     Using one would recharge all, but you’ll get choices after you steal once.

But stealing things like kits or actual weapons would be troublesome. It would be quite hard to balance in PvP (in PvE there’s already items that mimic profession kits and weapons, like the Healing kit some asura sells)
