The Quickness attrition mechanics were designed to take away the one MOST IMPORTANT survivability element of that class. Warriors rely on natural mitigation so their penalty was a damage intake increase, Rangers rely on healing so their penalty was a healing mitigation, we rely on dodging so our attrition mechanic is Endurance.

I honestly hope we’ve all figured this out by now.

God this one makes me rage and lol at the same time. Thanks for putting this one up. The silliest comments as far as i`m concerned come from players, and good ones i might add, that pilot powerhouses (necro, mesmer etc). They steamroll you even when you double team them and they are STILL the ones complaining about how broken our class is. I mean they may be good but they`re not THAT good.

Warrior do lack disengage, that’s the thing. They can easily be Crippled/Chilled/Immobilized forever, even after all the traits that exist to prevent them from being so.

I play a Warrior too xD so knowing that I can’t teleport out is definitely difficult. Then again, that’s why I play Warrior at all, because I like the challenge of committing to a fight.

I remember that warrior crying about thief quickness! That was pretty funny. Best part is how he brought up invis. If he had any common sense he’d know invis = not attacking.

My favorite is this one necro complained how this thief was perma invisible and there was absolutely no way he could retaliate against this thief. He showed a combat log of the thief landing 3-4 cnd+backstabs along with several auto attacks. What did the necro land? Nothing but the passive mark he gets when he dodges.

On every other profession forum out there:

“And yet, Thieves are allowed to never be seen and still hit us for 10-12k backstabs!”

Seriously. Look anywhere. The only problem with Thief right now is that on certain sets, he’ll never die unless he wants to die. 10-12k backstabs are rare, and under extreme circumstances.

Aww the thread was closed b/c the op kept calling people dumb for not saying thief is op everywhere all the time and should have 8-10s revealed and stealth should drop on any damage intake and ignoring/insulting any advice given to be helpful. Wait, why don’t I feel surprised?

Because it is not a acceptable avenue of a counter. No other profession needs a in game item sold at a vender to be countered. Every other profession can be countered with decent play (most of the time minus a few builds), except Thief.

Thief has the highest skill ceiling. You absolutely cannot do rotations or facerolls with this profession. Thieves have the highest risk vs. reward if you plan on doing glassy stealth builds. Thieves are squishy and require abusing one of their two survivability mechanics to even last in a fight.

Secondly, the best way to kill a (really) good thief is to play a thief and learn their stratagems (if listening to direct advice fails).

Any thief can be a stealth-humping coward. What separates them from good thieves is all dependent on how they execute and adapt. A great thief, however, will win regardless.

lmao. no way, dude.

Use stealth-heal at full HP. Press Dagger 1 on someone.

Then heal again if youre going to die.

A thief can use his summon skill to completely obliterate an entire army in half a second, so there’s no competition there. I completely agree with the op on this one.

Another silly comment.,

OP posts on thieves forums because he is too scared to post on other forums and be called out and ridiculed as bad players carried by their class tend to be.

Whom is better to compliment a baddie than another baddie, hmm?

I have a silly comment:

People will wipe the floor with you with your current ‘skill’ if you play another class..say a warrior. You won’t though..because you are too scared to do so.

What do people do when they know they are in the wrong and don’t have a valid counter argument? They make fun of the person pointing out their flaws.

Because a thief should be overwhelmingly better than warrior 1v1, not struggle at all. Warrior is already one of the best at PvE, ZvZ, GvG (where the thief sucks), it stands to reason the thief should crush the warrior no questions asked.

Last couple of patches overtuned warrior mobility, sustainability, and CC, so now they are too good at everything and needs to be brought down a couple of nothces.

i think it’s an underserved nerf. now we have to slot a stun breaker??

Berserker Stance removes ZERO conditions. It is preventative only. You cannot pop it after the conditions are already on you to make them fall off.

Should learn your class then it reduces duration by 100% that means they are removed.

best one (both in the same thread):

I am in ebg jp where alot of dueling takes place and this one war is camping 4 level 80s (we got no mesmers or engineers so no flavor of the month proffessions to help)

He uses sword/shield and then greatsword. He stuns someone for about 7 seconds and he does this almost every 15-20 seconds. In that stun you get bursted about 13k if you are in pvt gear but not running a tank build.
This war is running pvt gear and a tanky build as no one is hitting high on him at all yet hes dealing 13k dmg burst and stunning someone for about 7 seconds every 15-20 seconds.
His greatsword is am amazing gap closer of course and amazing at running away with low cooldown gap closing abilities.

The stun is melee range so just don’t let him get close.

lol they can just use a gap closer then use the stun. besides most of them pack a long range weapon too.

So what, sword and mace main hand with shield offhand, a greatsword for HB and gap closer and a range weapon as once, so OP!

Okay, I honestly have nothing against last refuge, but to call it sweet is something else entirely :P

Flanking Strike Gives you perma dodge.

It’s Really a shame that S/d never caught on before they added larcenous strike. Don’t get me wrong it wasn’t a perma dodge back then either (3/4 second evade. 1 second animation) but it was alot more efficient for dodging then it is now.

After dropping a ranger, he cried “Spam 3 more”.
I poisoned him with SHbow 4 to neuter his healing, weakened him with SHbow 2 (in Choking gas) to neuter his DPS. He ran, and I used steal/inf sig/Inf strike to keep on him/pin him down, and used FS/LS to drop him.

But he lost to a thief, so obviously it was “3 spam”, and he just had to cry about it to “save face”.

That is partially true if I’m taking this the way I think the poster meant it to be taken and that would be “only stupid thieves die.”

@ The Jokester

You try too hard.

Explain I mean I don’t get why you’re so hurt that ur op class is finally getting a balance cant wait for some of the other classes to be able to take u noobs out of stealth

I’m hurt? Wow.

You are you cry about the stealth it isnt even something that can be done more than once a minute after the fight has started seriously cry less develop some skill

Interesting. Please, keep contradicting yourself.

Contradicting myself eh? all i’ve done is continue to point out how u cry revealed ends a traitline as i said b4 it doesnt just gives u guys a cool down so to speak and you are kitten and I continue to say so I think u just like seeing your name so you sir troll will be ignored following this coment as in you are a complete dope to the update 6-8 seconds revealed 40 sec cooldown might even get increased who knows making at most 32 seconds free time for you before u get put on overpowered cooldown and kite evade teleport around then back to op

Well I think your opinion is stupid too.

I’ve seen a few bewildering things from one individual, who claims to run exclusively S/D evasion. I’m sure that he is probably a familiar sight to a few people in this thread. These are some of his gems, all from one thread:

I can back stab >10K routinely. I’ve even talked to the people i’ve killed that way in chat after I’ve invited them. several have armor >3K.

I can spam 8k+ hits on my thief. pretty easily.

i play a thief and I agree that stealth is poorly designed. it’s op’d to be able to remain stealthed the entire time while attacking. that’s while I don’t spec permastealth. it’s for easymode scrubs.
