Guild Wars 2

Finally had the time to make this vid after the mesmer one was well received. It’s a comprehensive guide covering counterplay possibilities from both thief and revenant perspectives & gameplay with commentary. If you got questions don’t hesitate to ask here or on youtube.

Very nice. As usual, you showcasing what to do/look out for on both sides of the matchup makes this truly informative.

That said, while you recommended Axe OH being useful for gap closing/Stealth interruption, you didn’t use it in those duels…

Sword offhand was specifically not reccomended but it was used the entire time. Axe was reccomended but it wasnt used at all. Axe is horrible when there are multiple enemies so taking it just because theres a thief isnt realistic

That being said, all were 1v1 situations which isnt realistic either. A thief can jump from one point to another quick enough to +1 unseen and leave whenever it wants. It would have been nice to see how a class that can’t leave whenever it wants handles something like that.

In any case the vid was really entertaining to watch

My axe and shield are usually on my warrior and I’m lazy to fetch them.

A 1v2 against good opponents will basically be cycling blocks and evades with occasional burst attempts and revealing. Not much point in commenting on such footage. It’s true that fair fights don’t always happen in spvp, but there is wvw and dueling servers as well. In any case it’s good to be prepared.
