Hey all,
I’m new to this game and have been messing around with thief recently. I’m kinda liking the feel of it so far, but was wondering what are decent builds, weapon choices for PVP?

I’ve been told dagger/dagger, sword/dagger, dagger/pistol… it’s all really confusing. I know we took a nerf recently, but it honestly doesn’t phase me at all. If anyone knows either a good site I can see for advice, has a build that works well, or knows of a youtube channel I’d really appreciate it.

Oh and since I’m new to GW2, the more simplistic the explanations are the better. I’m still getting my head around all the abbreviations here.

Thanks!

D/D and S/D are still viable though S/D was nerfed hard …
The most common build is D/D Backstab : http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fYAQNAoYVlUmKO3eS6E95Ex2je6Ti6fgs6MopNB;TsAg0Cno4ywlgLLXOukctKYAx0CA (sigils and some traits can be changed on your own preference)

“My” build is a S/D one, less burst, more sustain, mobility, remove condition and a blind to secure stomps : http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fYAQNAsYVlUmaO3eS6E95Ex2jeqTey9wpGtpaFoJA;TsAg0Cno4ywlgLLXOukctKYgw0CA

The 10 points in deadly arts can be moved on your own preference. Also you can replace the sigil of force for sigil of rage or bloodlust, i didn’t do the maths.

(sorry about my english, i probably did some mistakes ^^)

Edit : I forgot about S/P builds but i don’t play it so i won’t give you advice about it.
