Sigh cant edit the topic….build not buold
Hello,
I just hit 80 on my thief, and have the mats and or gold to buy gear. Was wondering if some one could help me get my feet wet with some advice for WvW.
Should I go with condition armor or zerker or knights armor? Will be making a full set of the exotic armor and exotic jewelry just not sure what to make….or weapon combos and traits.
Will be running solo mainly in wvw or with small groups, will not be doing perma stealth as I can not master it
EDIT:
Was wondering what the lettering means, p for pistol and the others?
I heard someone say in another thread that thieves do well in WvW to run P/T/H (rather than the traditional P/V/T)
Hey! I dont have that much experience with the Thief but this is what I know:
The most common (or at least what I gather from forums and what I see in WvW) Thief builds are:
D/D (dagger/dagger) burst damage and P/D condition damage.
In the case of D/D burst damage builds full berserkers or a hybrid that mixes in valkyries or knights is good. It focuses on killing fast with high damage skills like BS (backstab) and HS (heartseeker).
As for P/D most go for full carrion sets. The builds focuses on stealthing with CnD (cloak and dagger) and stacking bleeds with Sneak Attack.
There are other less common builds such as P/P burst damage, S/D (sword/dagger) daze lock, S/P pistol whip burst, D/P stealth build and even D/D condition build.
Generally going for full berserkers (or hybrids) is good for any direct damage build while full carrion is good for condition stacking builds.
