DeadEye is great and all, but lets talk about the underwater.

Anet you better have given us actual USEFUL utilities for this spec underwater.

It’s bad enough every other class has more utility options underwater, not to mention mesmer and engineer having more stealth and utility underwater. But i digress..

Not every other class, take a look at revenant underwater, they have no utilitys at all, it’s a joke really, but yeah I hope to not see that repeated with deadeye.

Yeah, Rev is pretty much a joke underwater, I actually didn’t really consider them. I forgot to think about them. But yes, nonetheless i really hope we get useful utilities !

I think our weapons and utilities are pretty strong underwater, especially scorpion wire and basilik. If you can keep getting to Shadow Assault after your burst and during theirs and have both rise and sink keys bound you should feel pretty safe down there. I still fear mesmers underwater though.

To be completely honest. I love underwater fights. And that’s solely due to spear 5 evasion, Roll for intiative, Withdraw heal, and Steal (With trickery line for 3 intiative on steal). I feel completely safe, and confident in the water, in terms of our 1-5 abilities. It’s DeadEye’s utilities that I hope to see reliability with.

Side note: I have a clip of me 2v1ing and engineer and necro underwater via spear 5, and successfully evading and swimming away from a group of 5-6 chasing me in water. DA/TR/DD

Ya you’re right about that, it will be a larger difference to DE than from other builds to each other, even just the core two dodges will be a big difference so it would be nice to have some new utilities that compliment how a rifle or DE build will play.

Underwater’ll probably just remain unfinished forever.

It’s a shame cuz I love swimming.

Underwater is kinda ridiculous as a Thief.

People think we can dodge for days on land? Boy, they haven’t even seen us swim have they? Hah!

I am at peace when I am in the water. Enemies always think they have the upper hand. But nope in the water is where a Thief excels with skills 1-5.

I really need to slow down when reading topic titles.

I thought you wanted to discuss DEADEYE UNDERWEAR.

I do remember a time once where I was playing WvW (which I rarely do) and encountered another player while swimming near their base, and ended up just dancing around him for like five minutes and he couldn’t get near me.

I find Thief works pretty well underwater and is competitive with most other builds, unless it a ranger.

Thief is one of the best underwater, when played correctly, but i still can’t shy away from the utility drought that Thief has been victim to for 4 years.
