Guild Wars 2

Yep, thief got indeed buffed like hell.
Yep, it seems to be good and helpfull for PvE. So now thief can autoattack and be afk.
Same for WvW, just go on tight, autoattack, dodge, pistol4…4…4… … … 444444444444. Yea, since I’m playing herald, I just get perma slowed, p4… 4… 4444444.
This cant be, yes thief wasnt that nice for PvE before, that doesnt mean that WvW should be completly ignored.
Yea I’m honest, it’s a whine-thread. I lost all the joy, you just cant go roaming anymore without having 80% thieves around.

The damage buffs require the thief to visible to use on the majority, exposing their weakness realistically so I wouldn’t say it was “buffed like hell” the Thief numbers in SPVP Died down fast tbh. maybe WvW is taking longer rofl.

If he’s spamming 4 and you keep using abilities the problem is obviously you, just bait it out and let him waste initiative.

Also I don’t see many thieves around in WvW, reapers and guardians seem to have the bigger numbers.

I wont say what the build is, but recently a youtuber released a build that allows thiefs to spam 4 and a utility and basically win every fight. It only works because of how a certain trait and new set of sigils work. It is really cheesy.

Well then unless you link the build I have no idea what you’re talking about, never seen any thief doing that. The ability does no damage, you can counter it with either stability or just stare at the thief spamming 200 damage.

This is what he’s talking about. The damage is from Pulmonary Impact and Runes of Perplexity. It’s not quite that cheesy, but you will get some easy wins against people that don’t understand PI and/or are just low skill and don’t know how to counter head shot spam. =P

That’s not even chessy. What’s cheesy is the Endless Dodge Reborn.

Yeah that build takes a bit of skill and timing an punishes Bads that spam their abilities, I am impressed

So let me see if I got it right, the build consists on dealing damage in fights where there’s a lot of confusion and people spamming their skills? I doubt this works in 1v1’s, unless the opponent isn’t very smart. If so I can do the same with d/p, but instantly, with a burst build. I guess this one just makes it more fun by watching the enemy kill himself by spamming abilities.

AAing a player instead of doing other things is dangerous. :O

The guy that made that build is an kitten -hole

Yea, he was supposed to make a bad build, but he screwed that up and made something viable! What the hell?!?! He can’t even do a good job of making a bad build???
