Guild Wars 2

You will see alot of condition builds running this armor now, especially us thieves, and necro’s. Prepare yourself. My build is still viable for this new era.

This build now uses Dire armor with x6 Perplexity runes. And ascended condi trinkets

Thiefsmer build: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/thief/Thiefsmer-Build-Video/first#post2745036

they didn’t nerf perplexity runes?

They have not Nerfed the runes. Yet.

Precision/Toughness/Condition damage

Why that instead of power vitality condition damage?

actually the Dire stats are Condition dmg/toughness/vitality

this would make for a pretty tanky p/d thief.

carrion sneak attack is 900-1200 dmg. how is it on dire?

Where I can get dire armor? Can somebody finally answer? I was asking everywhere and nobody knows.

Extremely loose build I just threw together just to mainly show the stats of the armor.

personaly i consider this build an total waste ( on thief), specialy for wvwvw :
reasons :
this build will lack burst, all damage comes from conditions, an glass cannon (thief /warrior / mesmer ) will not stay and fight against you, because they cannot burst you , and your only chance to kill them, is if they stay and fight.
. Against other tanky builds , an duel will take few minutes, so some ppls will consider an waste of time to fight against you ( like some warriors nowdays, that cannot harm you, but they regen 1000 hp /sec and have 3400 armor)
P/D // P/P builds are poor in chasing opponents, so most of ppls can leave combat before they lose, V/T/cond armor, will have very low direct damage, you will have totaly 1000 attack – 1300 ? , and the tactic is to stack conditions with CnD /sneak atack ? (vennoms included)

- Please read my 1st post. I said replace that armor with Dire armor.

Which build are you talking about, The post above yours or mine. because if you are speaking on about my build 1st get the burst out of your head. This isn’t a burst build. It’s a condition build. I don’t use venom’s. And I chase fairly well if not great with my short bow. It all comes down to skill. If you watched my videos on my Thiefsmer build you would realize the fights finish rather quickly. I fought a Guardian, Mesmer, and thief. I will give honesty in saying that the new Meta warrior is a bit trickier to fight.

My condition damage base is 1600+ for Dire armor. Add the ascended rings Vassar band and ralena’s band (travelers rings) and the ascended earring plague idol, and exotic vallog’s demise, with exotic travelers amulet. You achieve pretty good condi damage.
