It all depends on how you envision your thief playing as.

I saw a lot of videos and I saw that a lot of ppl using D/P that base all the time on stealth, that build I looking for. also if there is build for D/D i will be happy to hear. also i want to use short bow as my 2nd weapon, in short i want build with more chance to survive in WvWvW and PVE. BTW which armor set is good for survive Knight or Valkyrie
The gear ( rings, back arrows, Accessory and Amulet) will be zerker cuz i want to do more damage.

my opinion for PVE:
1.delete thief
2.create warrior (highest hp pool, best armor, banners with double buffs, best dps etc.)
3.enjoy the most OP class

for wvw you can use d/p or p/d as most trolls.

Here is the build I’m currently running with. It’s a very strong 1v1 build (although it’s stronger when you carry sword/dagger as your weapon swap). The build works great on small group scenarios. It had lots or initiative regen, stealth, blinds, gap closers, and decent damage output.

How to play: throw down black powder and heart seeker through it 3 times. Your traits will regen enough initiative during this time for you to be back to full and you can precast backstab and steal to your target for some big hits.

I run it in fractals whenever I do them, but I’m only at level 7 (I don’t like PVE). From what I’ve to experienced the instant condition clear when you stealth is extremely valuable and easy access to blinds is immensely helpful.

Opened a similar thread a few days ago. Although I m unsure as to whether you ll find a leveling build there, the guys/gals offered quite a nice variety. Check it.

I take it, it is a work in progress. My intentions are to collect all the PvE builds there so that we can finally differentiate them from those with a mindset of “rogue is for pvp only”.

Hi everyone,

I’ve had fun with Lowell’s Venom Share thief even outside of sPvP; see http://www.gw2db.com/skill-builds/982-lowells-venom-share-thief.

For the last couple of months, I’ve been using a dual-dagger build based on http://www.gw2db.com/skill-builds/486-my-first-try-for-a-wvw-roming-build.

I’ve got both thief and warrior toons. Love ‘em both, but I have more fun with the thief. And for what it’s worth, in sPvP the thief has a huge advantage over my warrior in games-won percentage.
