Thief damage is OP
At this point it’s extremely obvious that people are hopping on the “thieves are overpowered” train for the hell of it. L2P, I have no problems obliterating thieves on my war and mesmer unless I’m already down to half health at which point, they should be able to burst because that’s all they got besides backstab crits.
I know may come as a surprise to many of you, but you can utilize cripple, teleports, invisibility, daze, endurance, and immob among other things. It may not be GW1, but it’s still Guild Wars. Build against the meta. Bring counters, you imbeciles.
Word.
I kinda love thieves ive heard ppl saying ranger and necros are the worst pvp classes and i rarely lose 1v1 on my ranger. Specialy vs thiefs…
Instead of wasting ur time on “nerf post” try use it to learn ur class.

Not all the classes have counters to thiefs, mesmers and warriors are really good against thiefs because mesmers can go invisible themselves while doing dmg through images and warriors have shield block endure pain along with nice damage.
Do you use the signet of stone for your ranger infuser? or the signet of renewal.

Funny I find warriors kind of easy. Maybe I didn’t run into any that got to learn their class, but I can kite a warrior for… ever with pistols. As for thieves being OP, I honestly don’t know, i’ve spent too little time in PVP to for an opinion and besides, most PVP in GW2 is swarm-based and it’s kind of difficult to appreciate. The only “OP” thing next to other classes is the fact that as a thief I can avoid dying most of the time thanks to the brief form of stealth in GW2.
@ mickers
None. I use short/long bow. “Guard me” skill is a must and i combine 2 pets with knock downs ( as soon as one use its knock own ability i swap to 2nd one ) Also knock down from longbow combined with slows from shortbow/traps and thief bearly touch u. Also i dodge alot and when im out of stamina i use Lightning reflexes which is another dodge + stamina refill. Also on short bow 3rd skills is also evade. I rly dont know how can any melee prof touch u with all that cc.
When they waste their invis use Quickening Zephyr with shortbow for max dmg burst.
I use rune with 60% chance of con removal on crit on my bows to remove bleeds/roots.

If a thief has a redicolously high damage he’s probably a glass canon, which is pretty easy to kill I you know how to.
Troll post?
So when are they getting nerfed Anet?
HAHAHA,
Maybe now is a good idea to going back where you came from? lets say wow? thats the place where they whined about rogues at first as well. GW2 profs are all pretty good balanced and YES 1 class is a counter of another. Im engineer myself and our worst nightmare is a thief, but I found ways to survive and kill them. So many options in all prof their builds just dont expect you to be able to defeat ALL classes on just 1 class that easely
I’d like to know how thieves are OP? I’m pretty good with my thief and get my share of kills but I’d hardly call them OP.
Hey come on! The Thief in it’s glory ist the definition of OP, unfair, exploiting, stealing,……
It’s the Thiefs nature to be as annoying as possible, so doing a lot of damage, going into stealth, having unfair skills is part of the class/gameplay.
And there are ways to kill a thief
Everyone wants any class that they’re not playing nerfed. True story.
