Guild Wars 2

Just looking for some input here as I am leveling my thief and trying to figure out the best way to deal with Conditions.

I’m running S/P and SB for my weapons, currently only level 50 so obviously some room to grow and change traits.

At the moment it seems the only thing I have is Infiltrator’s Strike to remove one (which usually is not the one I want immediately removed). I also see a lot of late PvE 80 Builds without Condition Removal slot skills so I’m a bit confused

There certain traits that help with this or is it just casualty of playing a more damage orientated roll?

• Hide in Shadows removes most damaging conditions
• An Acrobatics trait can remove cripple on dodge
• Signet of Agility removes conditions based on nearby allies

I use HiS and SoA in my D/P build (PvP) and often in my PvE build (S/P). In a dungeon or WvW scenario, SoA is almost guaranteed to remove all conditions as you are nearly always near allies.

Shadow Step then Shadow Return to remove conditions.
