Guild Wars 2

just hit 80 with thief planning on using the 10/30/0/0/30 shortbow and D/P http://intothemists.com/calc/?build=-c3RV;1Rwk0-7-FOFd0;9;49T;0T2;025A;446B5NW4;2Ewk2Ewk25By

anyone want to explain how to use this build? when do we use shortbow and what skills? whats the main rotation when using D/P? openers? etc.

ps. this is for WvW

Don’t use the 10/30/0/0/30 for WvW. Use 0/30/30/10/0

Its actually really difficult to straight up “explain,” how to use the build, and much faster for you to go into PvP and just play it to learn it that way.

Generally you want to use Shortbow when playing defensively, and daggers only when you’re sure you can attack with impunity.

10/30/0/0/30 works really well in WvW also. But if you’re new to d/p I would say it’s better to start with 10/30/30/0/0 or 0/30/30/10/0 until you have learnt how to play it.

Also get Lyssa runes for condi clear and boons for when ever you need. I think using shortbow is enough mobility for not going travler runes as some thiefs do
