Guild Wars 2

Hey guys, just logged on my thief, i just want to point out that something has been “changed” that is not in the patch notes.

Before the patch u were able to cast infiltrator strike and then immediatly swap weapons so the toggle skill “Shadow Return” wouldnt pop up. You were then able to cast Infiltrator Strike again and so and so on, basicly you were able to travel very very fast as long as you had a target and werent in combat.

I’m sad It was beautiful especialy on double S/D.

lots of things are nerfed not in notes….they are tricky buggers :P

That sounds like a horrible bug that got fixed. Weird it isn’t in the patch note though.

You dagger players continue to get S/P players nerfed. DIAF

It was only really useful to travel or to hunt someone in WvW. It was a bit strong tho i agree because you were able to travel really really fast (Shortbow 5 or Dagger 2 dont even come close), but had it’s limits because you needed a target and you were required to be out of combat otherwise 9 sec CD. It was really nice on double S/D because you were able to decide between “do i want that shadow return or not?”.

Didn’t they talk about “we want to push thief mobility” a month ago or so?

d/p skill 3 ….. therefore it’s not “a bit strong”

Oh, so that’s how that loophole worked.

Edit: Although I was given to understand before you could do it in combat to spam immobilizes or something. Must have read that incorrectly.
