That build is almost a full berserker build. If what you want to achieve is maximum damage, change divinity runes for scholar; yet I don’t recomend them as you need to be 90% above your health to actually make a differnece.

I’ll be honest with you. Almost every thief has started with a full berserker backstab build. Yes, its definitely fun to see those 10k+ backstab hits but in the end you will start wanting something more than…just full damage.

In my case I stopped caring for pure damage, but to actually survive in 1vX battles as your build will only be good at 1v1 mainly.

So my suggestion to you is, instead of investing so much in those divinity runes, get ruby orbs and still enjoy that big backstab hits. Later on, if you get tired of being kitten d in 1vX battles, change to a 0/30/30/10/0 if using D/D.

Finally I recomend using valk set instead of berserker set.

You have some dumb choices for traits.

Dagger training should be Dual skills instead, you aren’t using a dagger anywhere.

What’s fleet shadow for? You are using S/P which has no access to stealth. That should go also.

If you want a S/P build for spvp use 10/30/0/0/30.

Just another noob thief…

This is a pve build and I have never made a thief before but how do you get stealth,I though all thieves could go stealth?
