Guild Wars 2

Anet wants a trixy, skirmishing class? So do I, this happens to be my favorite playstyle.

I hit on the perfect solution to fixing Thieves a minute ago:

They must be combined with the Ranger.

Where the Thief lacks in surviveability, can be made up with much of what the Ranger does – and where the Ranger lacks in trixy gimix, the Thief can provide.

These two professions can only survive if they become One.

The ranger brings almost nothing to this party. Good at zerging… nope. Good at skirmishing… nope. Good at 1v1… nope. Good at scouting… eh… sort of. Combining the two would make the thief less appealing most likely.

I like my ranger in general PvE, but that is where the current class belongs… out of WvW and out of dungeons. No idea how they do in sPvP.

I don’t support the OP idea, but rangers are very much effective in tPvP.
