The build looks boring to play, seems more of a troll build then anything, is what thief is becoming? Db bot? Pretty sad tbh.
Not watched the game play as yet as I am at work and there is poor signal in the loo ; (
Yeah. You’re right. 16s aoe bleeds, permaevade and permacripple is trolly. Sry to bother u.
Would use shadowstep on bandit’s defense slot, but you it is ok since you profit to cc people as much as possible on top of caltrops.
“fleet shadow”?. You chose this by mistake i suppose?
I chose it because when I looked at Feline Grace I was imagining how often evade would be popping up which would have meant near permavigor. This made Vigorous Recovery a bit redundant. Also with all of the evasion going on I couldn’t see Pain Response really helping much since Escapist’s Absolution, tricks and SoA handling conditions.
So I looked at Fleet Shadow and was like “Why not? lol”
Pain response helps a lot on my experience, think you should take it unless you plan on going for d/p on a weapon set.
Pain respons also gives regeneration… and somehow Escapist is not enough cleanse to completely negate cond pressure. (Idk why, 1 cleanse per sec makes us think it would)

Well condition pressure only happens if you let it hit you. Since DB spam is all about evasion I figured that, assuming you rarely get hit, the evasion will help keep the attacks from landing while the cleanse per second would keep them off you. It’s actually much better than what we used to have.
While I agree there is no need of even more cond cleanse Pain response would be better than Fleet Shadow.
1: It gives regeneration on every fight, cond or not.
2: Even if it only cleanses one stack of bleed, its still helping you survive.
3: You have no stealth besides dagger 5… that you won`t probabily even use because you are cond build and etc…
Why are we even discussing this? Fleet shadow is useless for you and you know that because you are an experienced thief…
o-o, so if you disagree I will assume you are trolling and stop falling for it.
That beeing said, good luck nice build btw. o/

I am not saying you are wrong, but I see use in fleet shadow. And I am experienced enough to see its uses. But again that’s just me.
The build would benefit more from PR, despite FS’s usefulness. Your stealth-chase/escape frequency is going to be low considering the amount of ranged/aoe cripple you have going on, the general susceptibility the build will have to burst condition application, and the lack of initiative you’re likely going to have, for any situation calling for FS is better fulfilled by shortbow 5, and your stealth access is determined by a skill costing just as much initiative with less escape/engage potential and overall bringing less utility to a given match.
If your utilities were stealth skills or you planned on using D/P and SA for decapping, I could see some potential for using it. Otherwise, PR’s going to likely be more useful for staying alive, and if you really need to close that gap, just use a heartseeker and your cripple/chill woes are over. Frankly, I’d drop trickster and use BT considering you’ve only got one trick on what’s still a relatively high cooldown that won’t be the real contributor to dealing damage, and stealing boons is probably going to up your reliability way more, likely offer more durability, and give your team a bigger advantage.

Yolo you even got Zacchary playing this now. Well done on spreading the bleeds
