Whats CS13? :P
critical strike 13, invigorating precision. I wouldn’t advice using that, though. Mostly, learn to dodges the animation/use blinds/ interrupts. A good thief is also a thief who knows what to do and when to stealth/ break defiance/ do thiefsploits. It all comes down to knowing the encounter. Try 5/6/0/3/0 for hard bosses if you need more breath.
If you’re on EU and need help to get into dungeons, pm me.
I would also recommend 3 in acrobatics for hard bosses (or in general ). S/P is great for trash mobs because of the high evasion uptime and cleave . D/D is typically used for single targets like bosses. SB (or P/P depending on your preference ) is usually kept as your swap so if you get hit down to about half health, you can back off and keep hitting them in the meantime.
Most of your survivability comes from complete avoidance of the damage, so if you’re used to tanking with blocks or armor stats that’s not going to work well on thief. You need to learn the hard hitting animations and not get hit by them.
I would recommend a tankier build to soak up a few mistakes and running with your guild until you learn the ropes. Running with mostly people you know is a lot less likely to get you kicked for not running optimal builds and stats while you learn.
Yeah so ive tried more dungeons, and i just keep sucking. Even with blinds and such if you let one hit through you get one hit or condition and bam you are dead. Thief really is unforgiving if you are bad.
I answered you in your old thread (a while ago) ;)
