I’m too lazy to find builds so I’ve developed this bad habit of just throwing points into trait lines I like then hoping it all works out. Some go well, others… we don’t talk about. Last thing I tried was P/P+Sbow with Ricochet for AoE pressure and some…less than optimal traits/utilities while roaming around points. To clarify, I mostly to hotjoin because again, I’m lazy. So what do you guys find the most success with?

I am currently running D/P and Shortbow.

This is the build.

I am sometimes choosing Dagger Training over Improvisation, but that is rarely. I use eagle runes because the extra precision is pretty nice to have to keep pressure. Revealed Training is pretty sweet too. The extra power is quite noticable on both backstabs (precast backstab then steal) and auto attacks or heartseekers.

same old caed’s d/p build with executioner/crit haste/ air + fire sigils

apprently works fine considering that i get called names every day in matches now

maybe because of the flood of power rangers which are easy food for that build

Sounds like you need to roll an engineer. Enjoy the free wins

Your standart pre-patch S/D build just with D/P instead. Lots of evades, lots of blinds occasional backstabs and heart-seekers. My hardest fights are with medi guards which now every guard runs and condi burst engis, this build lacks any condi removals, but i still manage to screw up condi p/d thieves and rangers fairly easily.

I’ve tried engineer, sad to say two major things make me never want to bother with one. Ugly kit backpacks is one, the fact that grenades is pretty much the end all be all of utility, conditions and damage all in one is another, especially since I hate throwing them. I pretty much just jump back and forth between Thief, Mesmer and Ele.

Thanks for the build Deax, I’ll give it a shot. Atm I’m having the most success with a S/P build with lots of teleports and giving people the slip. I have to say that infiltrator’s strike is my favorite skill and has saved me countless times, running around a corner to escape a 2v1 then teleporting behind them to get away never gets old.
