Guild Wars 2

Hello,
I am looking for a good roaming build for WvW. Would like to take camps if possible if not scouting and harassing single and duel players works as well.

Hopefully something that does not rely on heartseaker through stealth…..I have a hard time doing this as I am injured and playing one handed atm.

You might wanna try P/D, that’s at least my pocket strategy if I only could play with one hand. There are many different setups, but carrion is pretty easy to setup just requires that you fill every slot with carrion.

And build, something like this might do the trick, I’ve seen many ppl going without any extra ini regen traits.

It’s simple to play, doesn’t requires any extra positioning it’s all about timing and it’s very tanky. Drop caltrops > CnD > Sneak attack and kite ppl over the caltrops.
Pick your favourite traits, utilities and weapon off set.

These venom builds works pretty well too.
20/0/30/20/0 – might on venom and venom cd reduction
20/0/30/0/20 – as above with buffs to steal.

Other options besides P/D
S/P or S/D might work too, but is much more difficult to play and take camps with. D/D is too squishy normally, unless you play a death blossom spam build which works good vs. camps and people without condition removal.
SB is too slow and initiative heavy on everything besides clusterbomb, but works pretty okay if you are good at timing, kiting, picking off mobs and aiming clusterbombs.

Hope you found my post helpfull. And good luck in the process of recovering your hand.

I have only got my thief to 80 (and in yellows) a couple of days ago and i am currently playing P/D + P/D build, similar to the above posters one which was linked, my experience is i cant escape much but this is completely my own fault (like 100%) its a very fun build and i love the bleed damage its refreshing from my mesmer, i can dodge / kite all day if i play well and/or not against an exceptional player in still learning the ropes but it seems like a very ‘’in, out, im over here!’’ build which is extremely fun effective at roaming too, i took a camp in my yellow gear yesterday packs a big punch!

This is my exact WvW build, I use it roaming either solo or with a friend. Yes it’s a tad squishy so soloing a camp isn’t possible. If you get the drop on someone, steal + cnd + backstab and they are almost down if not already down. It has plenty of escape tools. Elite can be swapped for dagger storm for group play, or basilisk venom for chasing down runners. Stealth for condi removal.

Thank you every one, I am going to play around with these and see if I can make any of them work for me in my kitten state.

Here is a perma stealth backstab build guide I wrote:
