I honestly have to say Thief’s are the best forward scouts for WvW, but I don’t understand why people don’t do it. I operate deep in the enemies rear all the time, calling out packs of zergs I see moving around the map, or I stay a sizable distance ahead of our zerg or stand guard watching flanks and call out any enemies trying to hit our flank. It’s invaluable information to commanders on VOIP who can setup counter attacks or reposition their troops.

If I’m under attack or spotted 99% of the time I can escape. Withdraw, short bow, and shadow refuge — you aren’t going to get me unless I’m not paying attention and I’m going to brag on that fact.

So if you’re a Thief in WvW, do some scouting and join the action when the two bulls collide.
