This is really frustrating and annoying to know that you will die and can’t even defend yourself. Anyone feels the same? this bug/glitch should be fixed?

The subject of the thread is clipped, I guess your trying to say that thieves are abusing the ability to hide whilst using F, but I can’t be sure due to the clipping. Perhaps editing your post to explain what you mean may help.

Finishing Move? Unless you have support most of the time you are going to die in PvP anyway when you are downed.

if its an exploit it needs to be handled though,no matter if your “supposed” to die or not in pvp,i dont think thats really the issue.

It’s a tactic, I would rather not get cheesed by your “lolinterrupt” and waste 3 more seconds of my time but instead go stealth and kill you. You’re gonna die either way.

Not an exploit.

In PvP, to finish off an enemy you press F and wait for an animation.
The animation gives you time for an ally to CC them to stop the animation (or you, depending on your class).

Thieves can stealth (mesmers can’t, even though they have a stealth) and finish without being seen.

Ahaha Rukia Put it Perfectly. “You are going to die anyway”

A thief going stealth to stomp a player is not an exploit. It costs a thief a utility skill, or his heal, or his initiative to go stealth.

Thiefs aren’t the only ones that can/are doing it. Mesmers are doing it, anyone with a stealth ability. This is a tactic.

it is a normal application of a thief ability, why should they have this power against standing opponents, but not downed ones?
