Guild Wars 2

Im talking about PvE.

I want to ask some pro thiefs what they think about soloing Dungeons,
mostly Arah (p1-p3)
I heard a lot of players saying that warriors do this better…
and my friend told me that thief is easyer but a little bit longer (like +1min at Lupi)
I can belive it becuz skipping trash with stealth is really fast..
How well we deal the other bosses untill Lupi?

(without exploits)

Arah P1 is not soloable by any class.
Arah P2 is doable.
Arah P3 is not soloable by any class other than mesmer , necro, or thief. (corrupted light)

In terms of Lupi kill times, it’s mesmer/warrior duking it out at the top followed closely by guardian. All are around 5 minutes. Fastest thief is 8 min. Not sure about other classes.

Thieves are awesome for arah, especially pugs because you can help everyone skip the content, not just blast through it on a warrior leaving everyone else to deal with the aggro/poison clouds. Some of the top guilds have run arah very quickly with a thief in their group.

In terms of the content itself being “easier”, well warriors win hands down. The extra HP alone makes lupi a lot easier.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kPSbpONmjjE this isnt even the fastest ive seen, a quick youtube search should pull up one thats about 5:50 but im lazy go do it yourself

edit: thanks for bringing correct information to the thread http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kPSbpONmjjE, id like to see a warrior beat that

edit2: why would extra hp make lupi easier? why are you even getting hit at lupi? his attacks have tells on them larger than the sun

You linked the same thing twice. You’d like to see a warrior beat 6:47? Uhh, take your own advice and use google bro

Okay, a thief is 6:47 (or 5:50, w/e). Still way behind a mesmer/guard. I pulled the 8 min number from reddi a while ago, the last time I bothered to check.

Dropping the elitism: the OP is new to the thief, so let’s assume for a second that he’ll probably get hit a few times when he tries this out.

Lupi’s kick in P1 will down a zerk thief but not a zerk warrior. Yes, it has a pretty easy tell, but when learning the encounter the extra HP a warrior provides will make the fight easier.

And forgetting lupi for a second, Zacchary is still right. A warrior can do nearly everything a thief does, but do it without stealth and survive just the same. I’m just putting into perspective for the OP.

Having said all that, I’ll never make a warrior for arah or any other reason. Thief ftw.

that was my bad meant to link an LH ele with a 4:07 kill time, cant link right now to hard to copy and paste on phone

Warriors can do everything a thief can… even without stealth.
