Guild Wars 2

Hey all.

My name is Sepreh and I have been playing a power necromancer for a while now. I love the berserker build that I am running and like the high risk/reward gameplay of the power build. Some people have told me that I am playing my necromancer like a thief and I have finally decided to level up a thief and try it out for a while.

In general, I have enjoyed playing slightly harder to play builds in order to learn how to play the class and hopefully grow as a player. I plan to primarily roam in WvW and play PvP.

What is the most MANMODE thief build out there that I can learn to play the class on?

Thanks ahead of time guys

S/D, D/P, D/D(any + SB)
full zerker gear.
4 signets, elite venom.

But I’m telling you this build is only for real men.

There are no man mode specs for us thieves unforunatly, D/D = escape/burst
S/D = Substain/evade and teleport escapes. P/D = Escape/Condidmg
D/P = a bit more escape than D/D and less damage. Shortbow = Evade/AOE.

That was all our viable weaponsets as P/P is the most obsolete weaponset in the whole game. if i could play like S/S i would have done it haha :P the closest you can get would be a useless D/D deathblossom spam spec hahaha but that has no skillcap at all. We’re totally useless for spvp just that you know. Try out the ranger S/WH. thats prolly the closest you get while sticking in a close archetype. But i feel bad for you i do. Gl anyway.

10/30/0/0/30 D/D + SB. If you want to claim manmode on thief you need to not put any points in SA or Acro. This one still has some utility and a slight (slight) amount of sustain.

30/30/0/0/10 (25/30/0/0/15) signets is manmode, but it’s definitely burst or die.

Awesome, thanks guys. Appreciate the suggestions. Now back to leveling up…. :/

S/P no-stealth. Nothing will teach you to respect your positioning and dodges better, and ripping 40 seconds of stability from a Rampage warrior/ranger is also hilarious.

4 signets is definitely cheese mode not man mode lol. Even a man thief keeps a shadowstep handy to really kitten with his opponents

IMO 25/30/0/0/15 sword/dagger with assassin signet for max power is the most manly to play. No blindness safety net just an evade every other #3 and dodges. Hits like a truck because you can get an instant auto attack after every #3 press. Just ride em til they die and skill dodge anything important.

No stealth P/P. We don’t have any condition removal like those sissy sword thieves use.

You also waste initiative and have no cleave, and positioning doesn’t matter as much!

Cleave, initiative, and positioning are also for sissies.

quiet you, your just a bad ranger with no stealth

That’s a low blow.
I’d never call anyone a ranger… not even my worst enemies.
