Guild Wars 2

which is better for pvp, thief or elementalist?

btw i only care about 1vs1 pvp, idc about team battles XD

idk the recent metas for both since I’ve shelved my thief since the crit nerf. But its pretty much play style. do you want to dance around and cycle through attunment’s. or rouge around at the speed of sound with stealth..and for cry in out loud please don’t do the whole pistol dagger bs. a thief is supposed to play daggers

Afaik, the ‘crit nerf’ is a pve/wvw thing, and the thief is in a good spot atm.

For 1v1s I’d say thief is superior on average. However since the last patch, ele meta builds feature some pretty good sustain for most duels.

both can be great and both are pretty similar
(in that they are squishier damage dealers that need more practice than EZmode classes like warrior.)

i’d say thief is a bit easier to learn to play.

i think thief.

thief with offhand pistol 5 black powder is very good melee defense.
