Guild Wars 2

Here’s my problem. Thieves have no native access to stability, other than a 90 seconds cooldown daggerstorm and rune access via Lyssa.

A 0.5 seconds cooldown in a WvW environment, that would be nearly lethal to any low HP players. Is it really so overwhelming good that IR has to be changed from 0 seconds to a 0.5 seconds ability in WvW?

Yes it is

Lol, learn to actually deal with some risk in your gameplay for once in your life.

In the words of thieves everywhere, “L2P”

Also, -5 points for not just using D/P like 99% of the rest of thief players.

I don’t understand why they had to add an awkward animation with an aftercast to it to force it to queue up. A simple .25 second delay would have sufficed just fine IMO.

I can clearly see why the “whirling axe is op” gets so many thumbs up. Too many players here jumping on the “nerf thief everything” bandwagon.

If I wanted cheese I could have gone DP. Here I am, trying to give WvW thieves another option WITHOUT stealth gets shot down.

Well done.

It really just doesn’t feel good to use now. The animation is really awkward. Before, it really felt like you were dancing around the battlefield with S/D.

I guess it was too powerful to have a stunbreak on a weaponskill, but I’m not sure why they had to give it such an incredibly long cast time.

Also, this applies to more than just wvw. I’m fairly sure TPvP is what got it nerfed in the first place.

Yes, it was and still remains to be MASSSSIVELY OP.
Clearly needs more nerfing.

Needs to be reverted back to instant cast but have the return range reduced to 600 (on par with the leap) and/or have the rollover time reduced to compensate.
