Guild Wars 2

> this<

This was a good build 2 months ago, but after taking a break from the game i log in to see some nerfs so i figured i’l just post here to get some opinions.

This was’t a meta wvw thief build but it had good results, being resistant to conditions and having blinds lots of evades and ages on demand.. sort of.
I don’t know how well will it hold out now when from what i can tell more ppl are running tanky codition specs.

So opinions, what would you change and why.

also the new map is sick for roaming when everyone is not zerging all over the place, which is to say almost never.

I’d take Practiced Tolerance, but I just like having a high health pool. Seems like a nice build to me.. But I think going 30 into acro is a bit much. Instead, take 5 out of it and 5-10 out of deadly arts and try out trickery. Initiative on steal will almost make up for the loss of quick recovery (but more useful imo because you can control when you get said initiative) and Thrill of the Crime is nice for swiftness/fury.

Trying to remember when the nerf was, but thieves gained higher passive initiative regen (1/sec) but our ini gaining traits were nerfed. Check them out

Yep but i prefer S/P with 0/10/0/30/30

My 2c

30 trickery is way better that 30 crit strikes, trait steal at mastery and grand mastery, bountyful theft and slight of hand it makes for strong boon removal and a guaranteed and next to uncounerable ranged interrupt.

The daze will also let you land PW more often. With those 2 traits you will always steal stability and get the daze.

Passive initiative regeneration has been increased you can skip all initiative regeneration traits now if you are not a spammer and understand how to pool your initiative.

Generally the crit-trait line is not really good for swords, the crit chance and crit damage from the gear is enough, you should do better with the increased utility gained in other trait lines.
