SoS worse then other speed signets.
Agreed. It’s stupid especially when “fleet shadow” is not working as intended which was meant as our compensation for the other class’ agility buffs.

Elementalists get a trait that lets them use the active AND keep the passive signet bonuses…

Well that doesnt really bother me.. Its kinda imba but.. That our Signet was nerfed when we got 25% speed and the other classes is kept as is, kinda bothers me..
How about we trade you? You can have the worthless signet of the hunt and we’ll take the AOE blind that is very useful? k?

Give thief a pet and then maybe :P
Thiefs sig should give it a passive 35% you know i thought were meant to be agile
Permanent swiftness? I don’t mind…
Permanent swiftness? I don’t mind…
If eles and engis can have it so should we
not many eles run signet of air because u can chain up to 2 minutes of swiftness fairly easily so its kinda useless. if anything mesmer need a signet passive speed effect thats the only class that i would give it too because they have the lowest in all of the game of ways to get swiftness and if they do its a verry low amount. plus for sure u have to carry focus with you at all times not my favorite weapon..
Couldn’t agree more with Lordryux. mesmer was my 2nd 80, and my first for WVW. Thief was my 3rd 80, and Guardian my 4th.
The lack of movement on the mesmer after being spoiled as a thief basically keeps me from playing the mesmer as much as I enjoy it. To be honest though thief is my main for life in gw2 regardless. But mesmer could really use some movement love.
You’re complaining about your speed, which is fastest in the game, when classes like Guardian, and Mesmers run slow as dirt?
Neither the Thief, or the Elementalist need to be faster.
Come on guys.
80 Thief – 80 Warrior – 80 Guardian – 80 Ranger
80 Mesmer – 80 Necromancer
We don’t need any more mobility.
We’re already the only class in the that can have a hope in hell of catching D/D Ele’s.
We don’t need to be passively faster than they are.
I would love the Active Immobilize back, though.

I don’t want our mobility to change at all. Neither buffs nor nerfs. I think thief is perfect right where it is. Swirmy and slippery, just as the devs intended, but not speed hax fast.
Plus, SoS active is one of my favorite tools again glass cannons and especially when downing rangers, warriors, guardians, engis, basically any class that can interupt you in downed mode is blinded so it misses and you finish them. Quite a useful tool if I say so myself.
I think Signet of Shadows itself is fine, it’s just that we don’t have access to as much swiftness as easily as something like a D/D ele, who can stack it to ridiculous durations and make it hard to catch people for melee range.
Again, as someone said, Fleet Shadow should be fixed and then I think our mobility would be perfectly fitting: Fast all the time, can go full on sanic speeds if you can get stealth.
