I wish more classes worked like the Thief
When I started playing GW2 I immediately fell in love with the thief, mostly because I’ve only ever played Stealth/assassin type classes in other mmos and rpgs. I love the initiative system and playing and building your class how you enjoy playing. I also really love the dual weapon system, how your 3rd skill changes based on the weapon set.
However, when I try to play another class I become bored incredibly easy. The cooldowns are not fun to play with and you can’t really customize your class to your playstyle. While other classes have simple builds, Thief has more complex one, thanks to being able to specialize more in depth, since skills don’t have cooldowns.
Am I doomed to a life of thief, or is there something I’m missing with other classes that make them more exciting?
I think the ele attunement system is far more creative and healthier for the game then the initiative system. Kinda wish they used something as creative as that for thief.
Try Engie. They’ve got a lot of really different ways to play with all their turrets, and kits. It’s not as fast paced as a thief, obviously, but there’s a lot to play around with.
I agree. I find all the other classes extremely boring because they don’t have to worry about managing any resource.
