I’m going to say this right away. I am a noob when it comes to being a thief, however I would like to change that.

I do have a build I threw together but a second opinion is always nice.

I basically just need to know what kind of armor, runes and sigil’s would be good for me.

Thanks in advance.

For what content? Anyway, having 4 points in CS without going for the full traitline is a big mistake. It’s the biggest dps gain you can get with traits. I’ll assume this is for pve as that’s what stated in gw2skills:
Shadow arts is, in pvp and pve, a bad traitline. Sitting on stealth during boss fights drop your dps to 0. The only moment where you will be in stealth for longer periods is trash runs, and the blind on stealth will put you in combat everytime you walk around a mob. If you want extra survivability, take 3 points in acrobatics for pve. You don’t have that much condi clear but remember signet of agility removes a condition, and it’s also a great passive for dps. Might stacking signet is fun to use, but ideally you want to keep them for the passive, especially assassin’s and agility; get a shortbow and blast fire fields instead. Speaking of shortbow, it’s a better ranged option than pistol pistol, except when you don’t want to aggro stuff with the bouncing auto attack.

For the stats, aim for berserker. Scholar runes, and force+ night sigil for all purpose dungeons. force+undead for arah, and the others doesn’t’ matter too much.

If you’re on EU and need help to get into dungeons, pm me.

Ok so I guess some revisions are needed. At least I know what armor, runes and sigil’s to go for now. So thanks oxtred.
