Guild Wars 2

I’ve recently been working on a burst s\p build. it can 1shot light classes and even bunker guards, cleave down ressing/finishing opponents in seconds and get out of almost any situation. http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vZAQNAsaVnsMBlOhFOBWOBkmiFYCzLMcGaDzfwSYLULBEAyAA-TpBFwACOEAPeAAI3fYxRAoaZAAnAAA

Burst combo: before jumping in a group launch a cluster and precast pistolwhip then steal. your attacks should land at the same time and Soletimes even 1 shot 1 or more targets

Pro’s and con’s :

Pro’s: you are great at bringing targets down and keeping them down, the aoe of pistol whip can bring down a downed target and a ressing one or greatly Punisch them.
Unhindered combatant can get you out of any situation and make you unbelievably mobile combined With driven fortitude and escapist Absolution you get rid of condition and takes away Some of the squichyness of berserk amulet.
Your job is to roam between ongoing fights finish off a target or 2 and move on to the next fight.

Con’s : heavy stun: 1 Large stun in a bad spot means death
1v1: don’t even try to face an opponent that gets the first hit on you the best way to counter this is to use your mobility and Bail you can always return when You are ready for a Nice burst
Dragonhunter : the heavy dmg traps are abig counter but With Some Nice plays it should be possible .

I hope Some of you Will try this out and give me Some feedback / alterations to make this build truly great. Or atleast Just have Some fun With it

Hmm, the cluster into steal + PW sounds interesting. Wouldn’t have thought to try that. I’ll give it a shot and see what I think. Sorry to nitpick, but what’s with the random capitalization?

I wrote this on my tablet and that stupid thing keeps autocorrecting every single english word and then it puts capital letters and stuff. Didn’t really feel like correcting it since you got the message.

Precasting cluster bomb is something I’ve been doing for almost a year, first with S/D and now with D/P. It really is quite an obvious thing to do, yet hardly anyone does it. In fact, I don’t think I’ve seen any other thief do it - especially not as part of a burst combo.

DA/Trick/DD works, but D/P still out shines S/P and can burst much better.
