Guild Wars 2

Can this please be a thing? Is this a thing? Can someone make this a thing?

It was in the meta(battle) before the AA buff. It would probably still work, but now the damage is just too valuable to be used in a tank role.

It is a thing, and it’s good. You run the standard thief build but with Invigorating Precision over No Quarter, and take some toughness trinkets. You can also take toughness food or lifesteal food if you feel you need it. We have run it on both vale guardian and gorseval without any problems.

throw in some marauder’s gear if you need to not get one-shotted if people miss green circles

Are there any videos of it?

You don’t need marauders to survive the missed greens protection is enough to survive it with 1k health left. Go for the most toughness in your group (preferably as least as possible) and this is how it can look like https://youtu.be/x_NMqxVQLFs

If your team has a lot of downs and your healer isn’t at the boss you can easily self sustain this is making thief a really save choice for tanking.
