Guild Wars 2

Been playing D/P for a while, and since HoT release I seem to have gone hugely downhill with my results from this. Would appreciate some tips on how to play it against the new builds, or whether there are simply too many reveals and other counters to make it viable any more. Thanks in advance!

It’s too weak from not being able to clear a simple blind with SE,passing through weak bleeds and CnD and ending having to choose between CiS and SREj p/d has been gutted. Add reveals and boost from other classes you got yourself a very weak set similar to d/d. Venom share seems to have a less terrible impact it requires good coordination I would recommend that but it’s situational.

My results went down since June 23…

P/D has been dead since the specialization patch. There is a reason most condi thieves out there don’t even use their weapons anymore, just traps and stealing in permastealth…

Thief pistols in general need a nice overhaul (particularly Pistol #2 attack, Sneak Attack, and the weak auto attack)

Sigh, just realised I wrote P/D instead of D/P. I’m smart.

Change your first post – I often only read the first when answering.

Still meta build with great dmg blind daze ability as before
The reveal skills aren’t being used yet much

Don’t think they need to lol. Herald and DH are always here anyway.

Let’s change the topic into is Thief/Daredevil viable, shall we?

Answer: Its SO viable, top 2 NA thieves switched from Thief to Revenant and Ranger.

I feel sad for my 3 year main class… RIP

i dont know why the switched. is it cause they want to experiment or they are bored with thief? or is it just the other class so better than thief atm….

bingo

I’ve been trying a D/P Daredevil SA Trickery build, taking the interrupt trait in master daredevil since we already have condi cleanse with SA, and it’s working decently well. Hitting key Headshot has a greater impact, which push the skillcap of it a bit higher.

Losing improv and mug hurts a bit, but the adept +7% damage trait makes up the damage of the DA minors.
