Guild Wars 2

I made a similar thread a few months ago – and here again. Part of the problem being a thief is that one is reliant on the game mechanics. I have just been in a zerg fight, was immobilized and tried to evade the traps with withdraw and diabeling shot, but the best I could do was to get myself right into the traps as I couldn’t change the position of my character as I was immobilized. I have no idea who wanted this but I’d like to be able to get into the direction I’m sitting again.
Also the channeling of npcs and also other classes is a pain – I think that has been better back in the day, but I can imagine that players new to thief redeem backstab to be impossible to land.
Then the camera changes – I can’t twist and turn like I used to and am actually tired of trying to adjust my mouse which became pretty impossible.
Also, the Chinese New Years event patch February 2015 led to CnD missing more often than it hits as the enemy just has to cough to “evade”.

So, anet, if you intend to buff thief in a few years, please don’t forget that a lot of what’s bringing thief down is the wonky game mechanics.

Isnt thief dead and abandoned?
Stop beating the dead horse

Skills across the game have been acting weird. We play asura ball in GH the other day and because 1 guy was slightly of center of the ball, instead of banish missing it actually knocked back the rat backwords instead. Just 1 example.

Ok – then I hope other people will bicker as well.
But SB #3 was changed to what it is a few months ago – so it behaves like it should “always away from your opponent” question is who and where the opponent is in a blob fight.
Maybe it’s the same with asura ball.

Btw: I was just commander leading the zerg against a bigger group and we won WOOHOO HOOO – not saying that the guys carried me, no they didn’t!
