Guild Wars 2

Upload a video of how you play thief and show me how you managed to 1vs1 someone by, and im quoting this, spamming headshot . I literally want to see you smash that number 4 button and kill someone while doing it. Because thats what you think thief playstyle is about. So prove me wrong by providing evidence of how broken PI trait is.
Ofc in plat 3 + only, even though i doubt you will find success with that tactic even in lower gold.

l love facing Thieves on my necro. I’ve lost to only one or two this season 1v1. But in middle of gold not many people can interrupt well it seems.

Not necro main. I main ele that is usualy seen as thief fodder …. Was that pile of ash a thief ? I am in silver ….

Yeah because the ones that would win don’t engage you 1v1. Only bad thieves really do that, since 1v1 is the last place you want to be as a thief. Aside from a teamfight.

Exactly thief players learnt their position in sPvP matches they wont have the biggest impact by 1vs1-ing. Why cant necros do the same? They are insanely good usually in mid fights or in 2vs2 situations where they have ele or druid to support them. The game was never balanced around 1vs1 and never will be and i dont know why so many triggered necros are trying to achieve that.

Idk what you want to acomplish with the high MMR point.

The higher you go, the more necro becomes free food and the more perfectly invicible thiefs get. The argument should be more in lines of how close to perfection can you get and if the matchups are balanced at that level.

As for the headshot spam,
given this is a thief vs necro whine post, bith sides are right.
Necro has zero sustain so it literally does to headshot spam. 411-411-doge-doge-31-done.
However all other classes have ctazy sustain, so you need a crazy good played thief and that 10k extra dmg to even kill them 2v1 in reasonable time.

As a former PvP necro main I have to agree. Although necro isn’t the worst 1v1 class, there are some very good match-ups for necro, such as warriors or mesmers. But I choose to focus on the positive!

Necro literally has 40k hp when im counting death shroud and in death shroud they got access to stability so if this is the zero sustain you are talking about i would like to have some of it on thief.

Necros are the worst duel class I don’t know what some of you are talking about. Imagine starting a duel with no lifeforce your toast. Necros are group fight class that takes time to get rolling. Thats exactly opposite of what makes a strong dueler. Its an attrition class. Nobody cares about what happens in silver and bronze. Thats mouth breather level.

Thats a best case scenario there are a lot of times when you basically have zero lifeforce or very low lifeforce. You act like you just come out of the gate with a full life force bar. In actuality you are well below half lifeforce more often then not and you start the match with zero life force. Necro is probably the hardest class to play well on and survive at the higher levels of play. You sound clueless. The vast majority of necros are free food by the time you get to a modest level of play like upper tier gold.

Yeah, I would like to know why either of you are in a 1v1. Is this in a dueling arena?

I see an open point I go for it. Usually when my team is holding mid. Which then as I cap far for a 3 cap I hold it,… Leading to a 1v1. Been working for 65ish games so far.

The only scenario where i can think of that to happen is if necro went far/close at start and thief is coming right at him which is obviously super bad decision making of the necromancer since his full potential is achieved in teamfights with ele/druid to support him.

See I haven’t ever felt impactful in teamfights =/ I don’t know… Maybe it’s my build but I usually just get dumpstered in team fights, I much prefer the 1v1 for a contested point. I can keep track of everything one opponent does better than 3 or 4.

well, necro usually excels in teamfights (needs support though)

I can see it. But So far my play style has worked pretty well, I’m slowly climbing at least.

Generally speaking I don’t engage as a thief unless I know they are low on or out of cool downs, low on health, or someone else has their attention engaged. Then I’ll pop in, thump them, and pop back out.

I don’t think I really “main” anything though. I play ele, necro, guard, and thief this season. Still haven’t gotten comfortable with druid.

It’s easier to respawn with 0 life force than 100%..

I engage 1v1 but only if necro attempts to decap our point and i know help will come eventually.

It’s one thing to get +1 by a thief, it’s another to have one kick back and daze spam you from afar. I’m no spvp nor reaper expert, this just from random roaming in wvw where thieves do this. Maybe the complaints in spvp are mainly between wvwers getting their loot from season?
