What thief ability has not been reported as being OP? Maybe Dancing Dagger??

They’ve not started in on all the traits yet I see though

Dancing Dagger wasn’t reported but I think it was complained about…
Traps havent yet been called OP, probably because no one really uses them.
I think venoms were complained about as well (lost track of all the threads).

Some traits have been complained about, notably traits in the shadow line. But traits are hard to complain about since they dont visually appear for them to complain about, like they dont appear on the damage-chat and they aren’t visual like stealth – heard to deal with something that you can’t see… remember? (Plus that would require those that complain to read in on the class they’re complaining about, god forbid that happens – too much work)


I feel this is appropriate (left out the “main”, Java isn’t the best at short code…):

boolean stealth_exists = true;

while (stealth_exists){
System.out.println(“What: Stealth”);
System.out.println(“Why: OP, no counter, much heals, so damage, wow, unfair, can’t see, broken, silly, cheesy, too easy, invincibility”);
patch(); //Might remove stealth, might not….
}

Yeah I can probably start that within the next few days, if I don’t forget… Very busy times for me right now lol, despite my appearances on forums. If you start it (by all means), I will help keep it up…

So… originally, this thread was supposed to be really for actual nerf requests, and it is to a certain degree, especially those that are reposted (originally by…). Then to a certain degree it’s like a “Jester”-thread… Jesters would get away with saying a lot of things normal people wouldn’t be able to say to kings, bringing up possible issues with the current community/town… The joke requests made here, kind of reflect the thief community’s view on those that cry about them…. Then to a certain degree, it’s just a fun/funny thread… Make up the most brutal way to destroy the class… post here!
TBH some “nerf” requests that did occur on the forums, i didnt add on to here as… really the OP was diligent in what they wrote, and proposed change (I guess this is where what you’re asking would be usefull) as opposed to “nerf everything to make my life easier”…

There were a few other requests to make… “Warrior Buff Wish List” and “Thief Buff Wish List”… Which yeah would be like this thread…

The one problem i can foresee though trying to make a “Change List”, and trying to keep it serious… is that people will kitten random “nerfs” in it…. And I’m not exactly a mod to move that around (o.o actually i have a 1 hour flood control on me, due to my lashing out on people)… See rarely do people post actual changes… today I think two OPs were made in the balance forums (4 if you count the legit responses…)… which is like the blue moon being up or the stars aligning… Or a new market of consumers opened up for GW2… but yeah very strange…

Fair enough, if a thread like this can be joked with I don’t see how a collection of reworks can be taken serious. Still, seems like people are following a system here which you seem to of done better than the ranger CDI so kudos! People post what, a reason, small tale, and done while others seek outside posts and condense them to add to the list.

if a thief gets SR off before they go down, they are getting back up since their stealth lasts long enough to port out of danger and heal up lol

hi thief class, (no smile until your class is redesign/reworked)

A temp remedy: self inflicted anti-perma-stealth remedy?

Someone mentioned something quite interesting today, "thieves can have all the stealth they want but in return, if they remain more than 5-7 seconds in stealth, they will suffer with conditions in which will reset their stealth to 10-45 seconds.

In other word, if a thief remain more than 5-7 seconds in stealth, they will automatically suffer self inflicted conditions which will break them out of stelth and must wait 10-45 seconds to regain stealth.

This would prevent the thief from perma-stealthing.

Your thoughts????

(10 – 45 sec is very precisly btw)

Ehm the only "perma"stealth a thief uses is shadow refuge. The rest is like poppinh out for some milliseconds and regain stealth so: nope bad idea. Revealed-debuf lasts long enough.

Something else i noticed today: was doing some 1v1 in pvp. There was a warrior. He defeated 3 other thieves (was one of them) and they were not baddies. No chance to kill him….
And with the “ferocity balance patch” the thief class suffered the most burnfall.

But you are right: the thief class need a redesign (in a way, that we could do more then now)

Thread: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/balance/Conditions-are-killing-the-fun/first

I sense the next wave of QQ’s (along side the constant stealth and high backstab damage (probably QQ’s from up levels wearing blue gear at this point)) will be about how thieves can “perma” stack bleed, and spam conditions (while creating distance…)… P/D will be the weapon set in the up coming QQ’s…. And being so “tanky” too (dire gear for P/D condi spec)…. (not the perplexity build)

:/ Wonder how long till that wave comes in….

Well… I only partially got it right. TBH still expecting complaints about “perma-bleed” stacking with P/D.

Lol. Eventually they’ll cover everything possible, leading to the inevitable:
"Wtf perma-thief. So tired of all these perma-thief builds. Thief should be on 5min CD after 20-30secs, removing all thief weapon skills and utilities, leaving only gear, runes and sigils active."
And after a months of QQ and countless nerfs, ANet will release a balance patch in which "thief" will become an elite skill available to all classes once purchased from the gem store, which when slotted and activated will change your abilities to that of a thief for 20-30 seconds. Everyone with a thief character will have that character deleted and automatically awarded the elite skill.

Originally by: Arganthium.5638

What: Power of Inertia
Why:Honestly, X/X/X/30/30 S/D thieves have so many “natural” evades (evades that burn endurance) through Feline Grace, Vigorous Recovery and Bountiful Theft that the fact that you’re able to get might for 15 seconds at base per dodge is absolutely absurd. When you’re getting stacks of might for nearly half a minute from a single dodge, then that’s stepping way out of bounds. 10 stacks of might computes to more than a 16% damage boost in direct damage alone which lasts a period of almost half a minute and doesn’t require a lot of conditions to fulfill outside of dodging frequently, which you should be doing anyways (and this damage buff is to a build that’s pretty good already). Combined with Fluid Strikes, this is an extremely large buff to your overall damage, especially just for being an adept trait, and as a result this single Adept trait contributes to a very easy-to-play thief play style which is becoming increasingly frequent in today’s meta.

What: Basilisk venom
Why: almost every thief in PvP will choose this as their utility. Since it’s the mainstream choice, it must be OP. Nevermind the fact that Thieves’ Guild and Dancing Dagger are both too long of a cooldown to be reliable in short fights – that’s no excuse to favor an OP skill. Basilisk Venom should have a 30% chance of backfiring and stunning the thief while being applied. Logically, how is a thief supposed to get the venom on their weapon in the middle of dodging, running, being OP while stealthing, etc. and not get some on their own skin?

And while we’re at it, It should also add torment and confusion damage to the thief. It makes sense.

Why: Isn’t it obvious thieves move too much in combat and teleport and evade all over the place. This makes it hard for other classes to 1shot their health.

And what allow it? -> shadow refuge… I cant count the number of time I dueled Thief and they shadow refuge 5 to 10 times in a duel… And they finally get a lucky strike and win the duel… If the thief is playing badly he should be punished by not having a panic button ready to save his kitten every 45 sec.
Suggestion: You would say it would be the end of thief right? No, I would gladly revert lots of unneeded change for this. Thief should go in the line with all those zerker profession and not stay low risk high reward profession.

Side Note: This one is special. Firstly, notice that he is actually compenstating for the nerf. More importantly, notice with what. “Unneeded changes”. So if they were “unneeded”, why wouldn’t they just revert them with having to trade for them? I think this is a pretty clever attempt by the poster.

Also shows how (just like Vincent said) thieves are always OP, no matter how many nerfs have been applied.

Shows the ignorance or lack of skill from people requesting the nerfs… Yet some being listened to.

And hopefully instead of making a post requesting to nerf something, they could actually just post here… save me the trouble of having to repost…

There IS a “good” counterpart to this thread, and that is the Change Wishlist (link in my signature)… It never took off.

What: Dagger Storm
Why: It reflects rapid fire. Rangers have been on the receiving end of unwarranted hate for so long, and the obvious culprit must be thieves, since thieves are dangerously OP. So thieves shouldn’t be able to counter the new buff to rapid fire, and should just accept balance and die a horrible, horrible, death. Because everyone hates thieves.

^I feel like a hunted criminal in WvW nowadays since almost every roaming ranger pops rapid fire the very second they see me.

I miss fighting the graceful sword/x rangers in WvW. Where are they? They were so rare before, but now they’re like extinct…

What: Stealth
Why: ?
Suggestion: allow mesmers , thieves to stay in it for as long as they want to . the moment they are attacked or attack they can not re enter stealth for 5 mins . so no in combat stealth , other penalties towards stealth is movement speed reduction by 30 % so that you have to be smart when you do come out of stealth but cant just run up to anybody while in it , you have to decide when to be in stealth smartly for ambushes or getting behind enemy lines .
bonus damages for thief using skills in stealth would be raised 25% in effectiveness ,
as for mesmers their boons or ports duration last longer by 25% so everyone can be effective .
this is mainly towards wvw and pvp . as for pve keep it the way it is .
