Guild Wars 2

im dying all the time i cant seem to understand what im doing wrong im in the leveling process now im 60 level and so far the leveling was really really hard can you please give me some tips about what weapons to use now for leveling maybe a rotation and maybe what utility skills to use
thank you in advance

also i will but some armor now and would like to know what do you suggest for stats to use for faster leveling

For utilities: Shadow Refuge has a long cooldown, but is a really good “I’m going to lose this fight” button in PvE. You get the typical 3 seconds, then you can run around freely with the 9 seconds to get to somewhere far away and safe.
Shadowstep is also great, because it’s a stunbreak twice.

You could try a S/P build, they tend to be pretty safe / strong. Always go in with Infiltrator’s Strike so you have an easy out, then Pistol Whip your target to death (if 1v1) Against a group, try and round up the mobs and use blinding powder to render them all harmless while you just auto-attack cleave (or pistol whip, if you’ve got the initiative) them to death.

For the armor, maybe try a mix of valkyrie and knight’s? (Primaries of Power & Toughness, plus secondaries of vitality, crit %, precision and power) Your damage won’t be through the roof, but the extra survivability would do you good.

How r you dying exactly? What is your gear?

With x/P it’s really a faceroll lvling, I wouldn’t recommend that. It’s terribly boring.
I lvled up with 0 defensive stats on gear and everything was fine.

Try changing your traits to get defensive benefits from acrobatics or shadow arts.
Get out of fights early against multiple opponents, especially crossfires.
Keep initiative for defense (evade, shadowstep, daze, blind, stealth) and let auto attacks work.

Weapons: Dagger / Pistol
Rotation: 5-1-1-1-5-1-1-1-5 …

3 weeks ago I leveled up my 2nd thief from 1 to 80. Didn’t buy a single weapon or armor piece off TP. If you do buy, just buy the blue/green grade items, and like every 10lvls or 20lvls. If you go for map completions, you’ll be 80 before you finish all the 40-50lvl maps ^^

Anywho:
1) use dagger/dagger + shortbow.
2) Use caltrops with Signet of Malice. Each second anyone stands in your caltrops it applies one bleed and triggers signet of malice, making that skill your personal medic.
3) with your initiative use leaping deathblossom #3. Normal mobs will die by time they get 15bleeds. Veterans will fall down quite fast with 25 bleeds.
4) I’d even suggest you go get the 20% cd reduction to Tricks (Caltrops = trick skill) so you lower its downtime since it lasts pretty long already.
5) Use Ambush Trap. Low cooldown + great dps boost to you. That thief summon lasts 20sec and deals good dmg and tends to tank for you, plus they either interrupt on opening fight by using Scorpion Wire if they’re the melee type. If it’s the pistol pistol thief type, they open up with blackpowder so you can combo off blindness even more.
6) is just Signet of Shadows for faster mobility/kiting.
7) Thieves guild to take out any veterans/skill point challenges.
8) Trickery line is great for this, you get cond dmg, and +3max initiative pool and gain initiative on steal so you get more uses of Deathblossoms. Also get pts into the critical line so you gain 1 initiative on crits.

With this you can pull as much as you want. Have fun.
