Guild Wars 2

Yo guys,

here’s a highlight from my previous stream.

Daredevil vs 2 Daredevils

Here’s the build I was using

I’m really enjoying Daredevil. It has its ups, downs and some decent flaws but overall it’s pretty good in 1vX fights – Not just against 2 other Daredevils.

I like the build, but what is the point of CiS when both sets have blind access? SRej would be so much more useful.

You don’t really spend too long in stealth. It just gives steal an extra blind in case they’ve got stability going. You can use both – it doesn’t make a massive difference.

This is proof that daredevil is OP.

Srej is generally more useful. But you should never underestimate CiS on D/P. Like meepeY said it triggers blind when you gain stealth through hidden thief. Furthermore when you get the pulses in refuge and, what is very interesting, with black powder + heartseeker – combo.
Lets say you lay down your black powder and blind the enemy the first time. He tries to stay out of the field and attacks you —> getting rid of the first blind. Now you heartseeker through it into him to make damage AND blind him again. Amazing if used correctly.
While its strong I think it definitly should go back to master ^^

Isn’t there a 40 sec cooldown on the proc for blind on stealth??

That was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo sweet, dude. Incredible play!

I would play a Daredevil build with Acro/Trick/DrD, probably something like 2-3-3 or 2-3-1 in Acro. I just love the feeling Acrobatics gives to Thief, even though it’s not as good as it used to be.

Regardless of cooldowns, It’s saved my kitten many times. Specifically vs Rifle Warriors who are kill shotting with Stability.

How did you kill the first thief so fast when he was in the downed state? It looks like you just cleaved him a couple of times and then he just instant died as if you stomped.

The new Daredevil Elite skill is a 3-part chain combo. The last part of the chain will stomp downed players – If “Finishing Blow” knocks an enemy into the downed state, it will stomp them instantly as well.

Very, very useful in 1vX fights.

The new action combat mode makes Finishing Blow and Fist Flurry feel really rewarding just watching it all land.
