Guild Wars 2

First off all, I use English Language as an secondary language. My grammar could be really terrible but I’ll try make it simple.

I’m main Engineer, I only play thief sometimes. Thief are really underpowered at some point in pvp. Thief could be really bursty glassy at the same time if they lose all initiative and escaping tools they are dead. Imop, thief uses dirty tricks, poison and anything to weakened the opponent before initiation begin. But thief has no real condition damage to weakened the enemy.

Back Stab should at least have 3 stacks of torment.
Throwing Dagger should has 1 bleeding.

Imop, dagger/dagger should focus more on bleeding and torment
While dagger/pistol focus on more CC and torment.

Trap utilities are terrible because of vertical line aoe it should be aoe in circle

Initiative arrow ! This is a joke. It uses 6 of initiatives but only inflict blinding !
give this skill of 2 confusion with 150 damage now its worth 6 initiatives

Pistol/dagger okay i get the concept. Pew pew ss away and pew pew more. No ! This is terrible. Change this mechanic it should be first shot 2 torments while ss to enemy face and 1/2 half sec cast fire another bullet or stab then ss away.

What do you guys think about this ?

Sure! Buff us!

But in all seriousness, I think you’re playing him wrong, look around in this section for builds/advice.

I started out as thief and still main him, with all my stealth/dodge and other tricks I can solo champs if I have a lot of time in pve. And do pretty amazing in sPvP, I guess thief is more pvp oriented anyway.

But thief has no real condition damage to weakened the enemy.

You fool!!!

imo, you’re not totally wrong about trap but that’s all.

i am sorry but thief is a training dummy for anet’s nerfbat; they would probably rather stab themself in the eye than give any meaningful buffs to the class or at least fix any issues that been plaguing the class since launch

Backstab dealing torment :0_ that’s actually a decent idea.

well if your w is on cooldown and you are completely out of energy you’d be dead with zed too now wouldn’t you
