Guild Wars 2

Hello,

This is my first post on this forum, and i’m quite new to the Thief class (level 30 when i’m writing this) but I am not really sure how my build should look like when I am 80. I have decided to NOT go full dps, because I like to be in a party and support my fellow members. Furthermore I use D/P as my main weapon and fall back to SB for the AoE & Range.

With D/P and my utility skills I focus around blinding my opponents so they won’t hit me or my party members. With my traits I focus on stealth and stealing, for increased damage and buffs. I will always (if possible) attack from behind, so that is why I have chosen for “Side Strike” and “Flanking Strikes”. I will of course be switching between signets for bosses and normal mobs. Such as “Executioner” and “Hidden Killer”.

My gear will be a mix of all kind of things, with precision and crit damage being the sole stats for dps. Furthermore I want to focus on condition duration to extend my blinds and maybe healing power to increase the healing of “Shadow Refuge”.

This is a link to my build:

I hope you all like my idea for building a thief and can give some good feedback and tips to maximize the effectiveness of the build.

Venom share is about the only support we have. I roll a venon/bleed spec with blind on stealth.

We also make really good tanks, if built right and use pistol offhand. Even if you have another tank you can support him with your perma-blind field.
