Guild Wars 2

So I haven’t tested Thief in a while. Been using other classes and lately, been doing lazy dailies with said classes to get them maxed.
What can I do on Thief? Looks like we only have 3/7 weapon sets- d/d, p/d, and sb. Am I wrong? They nerfed s/d and I don’t know how much. Any suggestions would be much appreciated, I am old school and still use Backstab build of 25/30/0/15/0 d/d sb berserker full. Also any tips on getting legendaries for this class? Still seems to be most fun class despite being consistently nerf bombed =(

Your title was exactly what I was thinking when I read your post…

You’re asking so many random half-questions, that I don’t know where to start, but honestly most of this stuff is being discussed in threads right next to this one. =P

Well, P/D isn’t really that usable. If anything, it’s only usable because it’s not unusable- i.e. weaponsets like S/D are unusable because they have only two decent skills, one of which has almost been nerfed into oblivion anyways. Either way, P/D builds have always kinda sucked IMO (at least, compared to other options), but right now it’s looking to be a better weaponset than most of the others.

D/D (as well as D/P) are still both viable sets, but with the amount of conditions in the current meta and the fact that dagger has no cleaving ability (meaning that you’re going purely single-target in a meta where AoE wins), Dagger builds have been suffering recently.

As for SB… I mean, it’s still usable… It’s just that SB has always been more of a utility weapon than anything else; it’s a filler for when you’re at range or have run out of initiative.

Anyways, as a result, I’d stay away from devoting too much time/money into thief, and I especially wouldn’t suggest getting a legendary for thief right now. Hopefully we’ll be able to ride out the storm.
