Your main job in Conquest is to roam the map, de-capping the enemy teams home node if it is left undefended (or if it is a quick win), help your team turn team-fights in your favor or execute other thieves.
This is more like “one of your main job”. IMO it highly depends on your team’s strategy. With S/D, you can stay with a Guardian defending a point while you let a Warrior or Elementalist cap/de-cap points.
Nevertheless, this is a good L2P resource.
Full set of 5 unique skills for both dual-wield weapon sets: P/P and D/D – Make it happen
PvE – DD/CS/AC – If that didn’t work, roll a Reaper or Revenant.
I’m giving this a bump because of reasons
Great help!! Bumping..
Hi all! Thanks for the bumps, kind words and feedback!
I have been away from the game for a few months for personal reasons, but I am now back and will start working on this guide again. I also want to say that I am expecting a baby girl in early June, so my playing time (and updating this guide time) will be limited. I will do my best to keep the guide up to date at all times.
Just wanted to let you guys know what I’ve been doing and why it is such a long time since I have updated it.

Welcome back, but sadly, you might have to edit the whole thing after the expansion.
Congrats on the little one.

Yeah, which is also one of the reasons why I haven’t been super active trying to write new stuff for this guide. After Heart of Thorns are released I’ll play a lot and update the guide accordingly.
Thanks bro! Finally got my baby girl, so I have been almost 100% occupied the last weeks :p

Well, congratulation from my side, too. I would say thats one of the most beautiful gifts a man can receive. June… Nice month for birthday-partys. Barbecue! \o/
Mine is late Dezember. A lot of people always in holidays. At least I can spend my time with family most of the time :P
And nice to hear that you want to upgrade that hole thing

Thanks man! Yeah, June is Perfect! Definitely going to have some out door birthday parties for my little girl
Thank you all who have encouraged me to keep working on this guide!
Now that there have been some massive changes to all the professions I have to revamp this guide (which will take quite some time). I’ll post when the guide have been updated to the new patch again.
I am monitoring this thread for months now. I think the forum mods should take a look into this and make it sticky for two reasons:
1) Neophyte thieves are not aware that this forbidden book of knowledge exists.
2) Members of the thief community, albeit small (because others are rerolling to other profs) should try to contribute any creative ideas as much as possible so that every thief can play their full potential.

Woo, was looking for this one to link it to a thief asking for help…
Long search! Well, some info is probably outdated but it’s all still gold.
Bumping this thread makes me feel like a necromancer…
“Learning curve. Thief is a very hard profession to truly master. It’s easy to get the basics down and go to WvW and kill scrubs and bad players, but once you meet a player that know how to counter Thief you’ll be dead. Good thieves however are almost impossible to beat 1v1, and if you manage to get the better of that Thief it’ll probably run away and never be seen again. It is a steep learning curve, but very fun if you’re up for a challenge!”
Shame this is no longer true, We are the +1 champions now >.>
