Guild Wars 2

For listening this time Anet, if you did.

Thief—Steal: Removed this ability’s target requirement. This skill will no longer attempt to fire (and go on cooldown) on enemies outside of its maximum distance.

Reading it carefully, they usually add “Fixed a bug” lol so it was an intended change I bet, but the heat got real.

Thief’s backkkkk \m/

This makes the “fix” stand out, out of everything to backtrack on mmm I guess that is their limit.

I really appreciate the wording of it. Its acknowledges that it was an unfortunate move and that they listened.

Thank You.

It’s a great step!

Thanks for not waiting to fix this. Now get to fix’n our other ‘bugs’ pweez. Flanking Strikes with trickster, withdrawl’s missing 10%, Sword delay <3.

Thank you ArenaNet

Thank you, devs.

It’s appreciated.

Thank you, ANet!
Now back to robbing the jungle blind!

Thank you Anet!
I feel as though we, the community, could make some needed changes and balances to the class if Anet paid more attention to our outcries.

this is certainly appreciated.

now if we could continue this with an updated implementation of withdraw…

Thank you Anet! You saved a lot of dropped thief classes and potentially gw2 players

Hazzah! Time to go back to robbing oxygen, one bond at a time

Thanks! We appreciate the quick fix!

Thank You! We really do appreciate it.

This is so weird…
First there were three occurrences of devs on thief characters…
Now they’ve reverted a change based on the outcry….

Wtf is happening…?

This just shows that they are indeed listening! Thank you Anet for this reversion! Had me scared for a bit there!

Thank you for reverting said unfortunate change, ANet.

accept my thank you too

Thank you Anet!<3

I actually cheered when I saw this update… for once… and I’m sure I’ll regret this in the next patch…thank you anet.

Coo! Quaggan thanks you! good job on the quick response, Anet. It’s really appreciated!

Warrior is sitting somewhere crying in a corner with the 1000 suggestions being made and ignored.

One small step in the right direction. Not enough to get me to log in though. Soon… maybe? Nah… there’s probably more nerfs in the pipeline.

to be fair, thief is still in the same position it was in a week ago (minus the CD on out-of-range steal)

while I’m happy at this change, people shouldn’t forget that it’s a small change in the grand scheme of things, and thief still needs a whole lot of work.

IMO, it’s too soon for “thank you”. I rather not see them pull stupid stuff like this in the first place.

They went into a new league season without fixing Withdraw and no Pro-players are complaining about it. Figures.

Thank you for listening to us!

Yeah thanks for fix. But i think we should thank all the people spamming reddit about this issue or it would probably end up just like 10% withdraw.

We should let them wait 3yrs for a thank you.

Thank you

Nevermind improving the class with buffs etc… More of this IE Bug fixes and small quality of life improvements would be a huge start in getting people back onto the class.

10% Withdraw missing – Cmon ANet, this is long overdue and isn’t exactly world changing so why are we still waiting? Please just get it done…

FS cooldown with Trickster – Again, this is small overall, but would make a huge difference for a lot of people…

Just two examples of relatively small bug fixes that would make a huge difference to a lot of players, and would go some way to restoring some faith!

why is everyone saying thank you like they saved thief but in another thread everyone says thief is still garbage

Saying “thank you” never killed anyone…
if i recall correctly. :>

We’re used to get nerfs, not fixes- that’s why.
