Just hit 80 and fully unlocked Daredevil on my Thief, and wanted to run a Condi build, read up on Ghost Thief and D/D Condi builds, and was looking at the later to invest in. (I’m poor so multi-sets for multi-builds is a no-go atm…) I’ve always liked Condi builds better, so what is recommended?

I’ve run P/D condi in both and find it effective with venoms.

Basically Dire and trailblazer stats, krait runes, and digits for bleed and poison duration. You can run venoms or other condi utilities.

I will definitely look into using this build, I wanted a Condi build that I could invest into and not feel like, it was a waste. (Because I am poor, and this is my only toon after returning to GW2.) Your build video looks very fun, and you had great detail in it.

Thanks for the reply!

Here is the dagger/dagger setup I use. You can also use the same basic armor/gear setup from saerni’s build above to run it for a more tanky, survivable build that works well for PvE. Replace the number 8 utility with whatever you need for the area you are in, like an extra venom, or a stealth field, etc. Happy trails!

I use this build, you can apply 50 stacks of bleeds on bosses and have incredible survivability, the damage comes from your dodges, and with this build you should have a perma dodge that does not run out and you should have perma high heal regeneration during fights. Not the best for fights in tight areas where you could fall off something, but works in any other situation.

This is the build I use. Pretty fun and love seeing the Bleed and Poison ticks. However, its pretty squishy. Your dodges and Death Blossom (#3 skill) must be used as a source damage as well as your ability to survive.
