Through countless minutes of research (honestly… I didn’t count them), I have come upon evidence of what we all suspected….

Thieves are actually Ninja!

Unfortunately, I fear that Thieves are lower ranking ninja. We are clearly missing many features we should have.


I give you the first piece of evidence…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yd_1HJbMngE&feature=youtu.be&t=143

Notice how they enter stealth, but it only lasts for a few moments. They are forced to fight while completely visible.

Sadly, we are missing the cool /maskon and /maskoff animations as well as hand symbols to get us into stealth. But we are clearly not missing the lag that was prevalent in the video.


The second piece of evidence can clearly show the result of Anet’s latest action…

Yes, the last few seconds were undoubtedly of a P/P Thief dominating with increased Unload power!


I hope I have given ample evidence to convince the naysayers that the Thief truly is a Ninja. And I’m sure there will be much more evidence to come. Please feel free to share your own!

Ps. Unfortunately, the Thief shall never reach its fullest Ninja potential until we are given MOUNTS. After all, what good is a Ninja without the capability to joust in style???

Jesus this movie looks absolutely terrible XD I love how on their headbands it literally says “Ninja” on it. Also, the yellow suits totally scream stealthy assassin to me hahaha.

This does seem pretty accurate to thief though. Rofl, I can’t believe they even went as far as to give them revolvers. My goodness. My day has been made.

I want to know why that guy’s weapons vanish when he drops them.

And also where I can get a boomerang that makes that noise.

You can mount some charr, but only available to asuras.

My charr engi is cool with this. But only if I get to hurl said asura thief at evildoers

I really want an asura thief backpack now.

Watching them use katana’s as if they were broadswords was extremely cring worthy. I get that that’s kinda the point… but omg… OP you’re killing me!

You never heard of cheesy awesome 80s action movies? They are cringe worthy in a good way.

When can I finally Ninja? Maybe it’s due to the same racism that destroyed Cantha. Hopefully it will all one day return and restore us to our former glory.
