its so sad there is a nerf wish list 4 the thief . u need a wish list telling u how to use your build against a thief lol thief’s r easy to kill if u do it right . the only class u should have trouble killing a thief with is like an element unless they r running a d/d regen element than the thief will have some trouble

You do realize this is just a joke thread, riiight?

(And please, use proper grammar and punctuation…I had to read your post 3-4 times to understand the gist of it.)

Not a joke, this is serious business. We can’t let a single game update without a Thief nerf…that would be an abomination!

This ^
Seriously, think about it… I think you WANT these changes…

Oh no, what have you done, you have summoned “he who should not be named”. He’ll be here in a few minutes telling you how decent thieves don’t use permastealth at least 50 times in the same thread now.

You cannot “summon” something that would -most likely- appear of its own volition.
Eh, I suppose I can’t give the guy too much crap, considering I run my own Thief stealthless. /shrug

what: Stomps
why: People must feel bad when they get stomped by a thief. Therefore, thieves should not be allowed to stomp. We should force them to desperately auto attack their opponent – no wait, people who get downed by thieves should have instant rally. Or even better, once the person rallies, the thief gets downed instead so they can be stomped.

What: nothing
Why: Thieves already got hit a thousand times by the nerd bat and are just starting to get buffed to being balanced.

This thread is a joke, you really expect people to WANT thief nerds unless they unskillfully play another profession? Let me reinforce the idea that if you complain about thieves, you are an UNSKILLFUL player of a different class because any good player can go toe to toe with a thief and it comes down to how well you play, not the profession.

ironically they already implemented it
you can’t do lv 44 fractal with any half decent thief build outside of condi and obviously people would rather take necro for that

34 Fleeting Precision Your critical chance is reduced
44 Overextended Take damage when you deal critical damage

i am still waiting for instability that makes you take extra dmg if you have high toughness or HP, but nope, let’s male a level that is specifically there to screw thieves

oh thieves survival is based on dodge? let’s fix it
42 Lethargic Reduced endurance regeneration
49 Stamina Outgoing damage is reduced when endurance is low

What: Heartseeker damage bonus
Why: The bonus should not be compounded with other bonuses like Executioner, Flanking Strike (trait) and Vulnerability. It should be harder to finish off someone desperately fighting for their lives. Besides, blood-soaked daggers becomes dull over time so the heartseeker bonus doesn’t make any sense.

first of all read this thief description from gw2 wiki : Thieves are expert in the shadow arts. They utilize stealth and shadowsteps to surprise and to get close to their target. They’re deadly in one-on-one combat using their agility, acrobatic fighting style, and the ability to steal to overcome their enemies. They have an affinity for setting traps and using venom. As an adventurer profession, thieves wear medium armor. 2. people complain about thief doing 10 to 16k crits so what we get killed in 2 hits by almost anyone besides some war hit for 10 to 20k crits 3. its not only the class that makes the difference but also the one playing , plz stop complaining about thieves saying they are to op , stealth is to op , op here op there op this op that , guys cmon just stop hating cuz you get killed by thieves , i mean we still get beaten and that is because the other guy is just better than us , learn to play before hating on thieves AND sorry for my english im french

I’m finally able to take some time to carefully examine thief class conditions, including the suggested nerfs in this thread.

So lately, I’ve resided in requesting thief overall class re-design, instead of nerfs.

Why so?

As i had already posted, nerfing thief class will not fix ‘break’ this class, not a bit because of 2 reasons; stealth and invincibility.

You can not separate them at all, and unfortunately, this is what i believe Arena.net is trying to do; and it will not work.. ever!

It’s like trying to separate your brain from your head and say that you’re alive".

Seriously,

who can live without a brain?

My wishlist for thief class, is to redesign the class from the ground up.

As the saying goes, “if you can not make something new, replace it with a new on”

(We are extremely, severely, miserably tired and frustrated of the broken, out-of-control, total-wreck thief; it is time to bring out the new, well-loved, humble, caring thief).
