Need PvE build for Fractals and Dungeons
Do you have much experience with Fractals and Dungeons? Because the “go-to” PvE builds are typically all about damage and not very forgiving to play for newer players.
Anyway, for your situation I’d recommend 5/6/0/3/0 while wielding Sword + Pistol most of the time. Remember that Black Powder is the single best asset a Thief brings to any party as it provides him and everyone near him with nigh impunity to melee damage against all but champion mobs.
The 15 points in Acrobatics are there for the added HP, which is a little more forgiving, and the generous dodges provided by Feline Grace. They aren’t really needed, strictly speaking, but they give you a lot of wiggle room if you’re less experienced.
Most of the time however you will just be using Black Powder every 4 seconds and auto-attacking.

I am have a good amount of exp with dungeons and fractals! I use me my s/d 2/0/0/6/6 spec in fractals and my team so far never had a prob with me but I just want to be more efficient
30/30/0/0/10 has stepped ahead, at least for single target fights with Revealed Training being added as a trait.
Basically, you’ll want to run S/P for trash (sword cleaves, pistol whip cleaves hard, and you can spam a blind field that trivializes anything that’s not a champion or greater) and D/D for single target fights (highest single target DPS).
Below is a great guide for meta PvE:

There are a number of different ways to go about the thief business, in fractals particularly. Find yourself weapons you can rely on for basic encounters and then experiment with utilities and weapons for the hard stuff.
