Guild Wars 2

I am not extremely fond of being a glass cannon but I really love my thief. When I play my zerker thief I hate that if I screw up on a dodge I am toast or even imagining raids in HoT scares me too due to how squishy thiefs are. So instead of just re rolling I was extremely curious if I could build a competitive condition thief using say sinister armor, weapons and jewelry (power, condition and importantly some toughness) and be able to still get good results in dungeons, fractals and hopefully the raid?

If no, why?

If yes what weapons would be best and any other build info would be appreciated. Thanks.

I ran a Dire Armor/Sinister Weps and Accessories Venom Share Condi DrD throughout the beta and had an absolute blast with it, was nuking groups of mobs left and right with D/D Death Blossom spam and added bleeds from the condi dodge (forgetting the name atm)

During a raid i managed to get into was having a blast condi nuking the hell out of the guardian bosses, with poison/bleed ticks getting as high as 8k/4k respectively and with the chrono alacrity the uptime I had on the venoms was phenomenal!

Definitely think Condi thieves are in a good place, while I do wish we had better methods of damage mitigation (hopeful DD Grandmaster trait change?) but for now everything feels good
