Boon stealing is normal it is the class skill with 20 points Trickery in the trickery line. Getting your boons removed is not something you should whine about.

The heart seeker spammers are indeed annoying, but remember not al thief’s play that way.

Heartseeker spam is for noobs. I wish I got to fight against more of that.

My Thief is condition damage spec.

Love watching the numbers fly out above them as they try and run.

If you still lose to plain heartseeker spam you’re just bad to be honest. You can do 4 heartseekers max. It does pitiful damage to start and only gets decent below 50% hp. If you use 4, you can dodge 2 just using the roll, pop a utility and you have nullify 3 and if you have certain setups you can make useless all 4.

Meh, I’ve specced into conditions and survivability with a bit of support.. In my time in WvW (just to get exploration, which is done now) I only got defeated once.. Though, I didn’t play to get kills or anything, I DID participate in quite a few sieges to get some pois.

On the note of heart seeker.. It’s only viable to spam it in order to finish someone off, or as a gap closer. I usually use DB once, then finish an attack combo (poison) and db again. That makes for great overview of the battlefield, and lets me know if an escape is in order. I do not have problems with initiative, since I have focused on initiative regen in my spec. When melee isn’t viable. Cluster spam is my go to tool. It’s great for comboing, and keeping people off walls, and you can stack bleeds with it like a boss, if you’re smart!

You can do quite a few heartseekers with the right traits.
Up to 12 iirc.

You know what I’m sick of? Mesmers. You get 2 of them against 2 of your team and it suddenly becomes 2 v 10

Anet make Rev great again.

You know what grinds my gears? Guardians, who the hell do they think they are.

Trying to tank but not tanking, trying to heal but not healing, trying to dps but not dpsing, they need to make up their minds.

See I can complain too ;P oops sorry whine

I love thieves on my necro/ele, they’re quite easy to handle, but I agree having 4-5 thieves on each team in hotjoin matches is a bit ridiculous.

yup i agree in hotjoin spvp, thieves are always lurking in massive proportions,

maybe they are fedup of being instagibbed by a thief,

as the saying goes, “if you cant beat them, join them”

If you can’t beat them, join them.

That seems to be the mantra for WvW…why not also in sPvP.

Although I’m pretty sure you’ll return to your old class soon enough when you realize Thieves aren’t all they are cut out to be.

Your average thief player isn’t OP, but a good played thief, that is one OP mofo. People can deny all they want, but the numbers of them say it all. And even if you defeat thieves pretty regularely, since there is so many of them, I guess that max 10% of them are played exceptionally well.

Heartseeker spam? Still? Are people still that clueless?

You use heartseeker when the enemy’s dropped below 50% HP or to close the distance when steal is recharging. Otherwise it’s a waste of initiative.

You’re playing at low ranks, aka with bads.
Get better, get in higher ranks.

meanwhile, in PvE, almost no thieves to be found.
