I barely see any P/D Thieves (in WvW). Mainly because Necro is overbuffed and people seem to run tons of condition cleansing and melandru/lemongrass, etc just to have a chance against them. Maybe its just the servers we’re competing against though.

Agreed. P/D thieves are very much the exception. Most roamers run a D/P set up. Zerg thieves use the set up that allows them to port back to the waypoint after they die.

D/P thieves were the flavor the month. I bet we will see a lot of P/D thieves once someone posts a great build using shadow strike. (MITY on youtube comes to mind…)

I have heard people talk about “conditions being the new meta” a lot lately – what’s that all about?

As wish, style, etc have posted above, it’s pretty rare that I encounter a D/P thief in T1 NA WvW.

Recently I’ve been running a S/D + D/P build that I’ve found to be very versatile.
