Guild Wars 2

Hi there,

I noticed that you can steal without a target and still get, if traited, stealth, from Hidden Thief, and fury, might and swiftness from Thrill of the Crime, but you don’t get the vigor from Bountiful Theft.

I understand that the two boons that are ripped from the target obviously won’t be there, but shouldn’t it work with the vigor?

It should work but apparently doesn’t (:P) because I think the Bountiful Theft working without a target wasn’t really intended either~

Also the vigor is not that important because you use the steal outside of combat (or else there would be a target) obviously

i steal often without an target in pvp just for the 2 seconds instant stealth ^^

Well, It would be useful to move faster when not in a fight. I would have lots of swiftness because of dodging and Signet of Shadows would be necessary if you have Bountiful Theft and Expeditious Dodge.

You could swap out your 10 Acrobatics trait (I assume you didn’t just go in to 5 points for the swiftness) for Vigor on heal and use Withdraw/SoM. Turn your back to the direction you want to go and hit Withdraw – cover more distance AND get Vigor for your swiftness dodges, then you can use Infiltrator’s Arrow on swiftness downtime.
