Class that deal massive dmg?
All classes can deal massive damage with the right build. This usually comes with a drawback of being fragile.
If you’re looking for an easy to play class I would suggest Warrior, Guardian or Ranger.
To be honest there aren’t any class can deal massive damg but there are classes with easy gameplay and thief is not one of them, thief is good and fun but hard to play it right also not recommended for new comer.

One shot capabilities are real and I think it fit the bill when we are talking “massive damage”. What more devastating damage can you do than downing in a single blow?
As for harder/easier profession I, like a broken record at this point, suggest a build approach rather than a profession approach to the topic. Thief can be super hard or super faceroll depending on build and context and so can all the other professions. PPL just assume everyone play cheese meta is the problem.
Thief is actually a very simplistic playstyle. It has its share of situational utilities like any class, but the major challenge with thief is speed and timing, not juggling a vast array of skills like engi or ele. Not all players are as active as you want to be to really do well with thief.
Once you unlock the elite spec (daredevil) you will be able to dodge more or less whenever you want. But because you don’t take hits well as a thief, you’ll need to abuse this ability to the maximum in order to survive. Constant movement in combat is recommended and you’ll also want to be quick on exploiting openings as you can’t afford to take a lot of damage.
But if that’s just your speed then thief actually becomes remarkably difficult to kill. They cover ground faster than any other class. They also hit the hardest (depending on the scenario). Where they are quite lacking is group utility, however. I would rank them dead last in that category.
So, if you like a lot of solo play (open world PvE, WvW roaming) I think thief is one of the strongest and most enjoyable classes (provided you don’t mind the speed of play). But I hear for a lot of the group-oriented content other classes are preferred as they bring both damage and group utility to the table.
GW2 Professions aren’t about extremes. No super tanks, no glass cannons. Doesn’t mean there aren’t tougher or more brittle professions.
