Guild Wars 2

Yes indeed,

Coming back just after what seems a nice patch for Thief. at least for PVE play

Just wondering guy if you can advise me for a good Solo build based on S/D as it seems to be now very relevant.

I mean by solo, PVE play making all maps and dungeons

Thanks for the support

I second this post. Also very interested

S/D won’t out-damage dagger or staff and thus won’t be taken for raids. I don’t think people do dungeons anymore. At least not nearly as much as before.

The changes didn’t really change anything for the thief in PvE aside from solo open-world, in which case the profession really never struggled to begin with. CS/DrD/Tr with most things going into stacking might and bonus damage would work fine. There’s not a big precedent for the other lines for open world PvE.

I hate elitist jerk responses like this. Let people play the way they want and stop telling people how they need to gear/spec for a raid. Its meant to be fun not an occupation

Sword pistol is fun with staff, deals good damage lol I’m partial to staff cause it’s my favorite weapon

This isn’t an elitist response. I don’t even do raids, but I’m simply stating what people are going to say if one tries on S/D. It does less damage with no gain elsewhere in respects to what raid groups want.

Don’t kill the messenger.

Anything works in open world PvE and always has. ANYTHING. If the OP left because S/D wasn’t good enough in open world PvE then he’s going to be no more satisfied now.

Thanks guys for your answers.

So i may understood that probably for what i plan to do S/P should be a good choice at least to test.

I will also make it a try (thanks for the build attached)
