“Please stop complaining about stuff you don’t even know about.” ~Nocta
Just a joke…
Poking fun at the Thief’s already lack of range with…
Well if it has to be explained I guess you are right.
I thought it was highlarious XD
Let’s open it up. And have some fun.
What are your (creative) guesses for some skills for the thief’s new rifle specialization?
Rifle skill: Batter up!
Stand rooted and block all incoming attacks for 3 secs. all Projectiles are reflected during this skills duration.
The world could use more S/x Thief

Suprise shot – 5 initiative.
4 second cast
applies stealth for 2 seconds 2x damage modifier, 1200 range
hotfix within a month
“We feel stealth is too powerful on this skill, so we changed it instead to a 2s blind field with 1s pulse interval instead.”
First patch (6 months down the road)
“We feel this skill offers too much in 1 package. Initiative cost increased to 6, blind field now pulses once every 2s”
Second patch (12 months down the road)
“We feel this skill is still too strong. Range reduced to 900, multiplier reduced to 1.5 in PvP.”
Third patch
No changes, because rifle thief is dead.
Fourth patch
“Thieves don’t seem to be using rifle at all, so we added 1 stack of 3s confusion to Surprise shot. "
pre-ordered HOT at this point,
save yourself the money and don’t bother.

After careful study of the Longbow, trapping Guardian “Dragonhunter”; I believe thieves will get a scepter in the off hand and be named Jester!
All skills will revolve around new channeled condition, hilarious laughter.
Which places target’s skills on recharge, slowly reduces stamina all while the Jester is dancing poorly and unable to do any real damage.

I doubt it because that makes so much sense.
Following the Guardian trend, we’ll get the Warhorn. Every Thief needs a Warhorn.
Full set of 5 unique skills for both dual-wield weapon sets: P/P and D/D – Make it happen
PvE – DD/CS/AC – If that didn’t work, roll a Reaper or Revenant.
Which would result in Bards. Hmmm, Banner or Consecration skills for that one, Sir Vincent?
Other 80s: Any but Warrior

No, we’ll be using the Warhorn as Blowpipe that shoots poison dart so that we have a 1200 range weapon —albeit the shape of the Warhorn is bended upward, it’s perfect for Thieves. It’s a 1200 ranged weapon that cannot harm anyone other than the Thief.

Man. I can see this one hitting the Nerf List on Day 1.
“Thief makes self into Lootbag with blowdart, News at 11.”
