Guild Wars 2

Ok so ive been playing rogue classes since the first mmo i played and the thief in gw2 is the worst rogue class i played well now it is it use to be fun and quite viable b4 all those nerfs. I usualy dont complain but this time is different . I mean i put so much time and money and my thief and anet keeps nerfing them to the ground. its like if all those hours of gameplay we a waste of time . So i was wondering is it still worth my time to play thief ? or should i just give up on him . Tell me what you think about thieves now ( let it all out ) thanks and srry for my english im a frenchy -_-

if you think those nerfs will make the profession unplayable, or not fun to play, then the door is that way.

nerfs aren’t fun, people would obviously want to see new, fun ways to do stuff through buffs, but it’s not like well placed nerfs ruin the class.

Like i said if its not worth my time to play and if those nerf do affect my gameplay for sure ill quit thief . But if its still viable and fun to then no , like i said im not happy with all the nerf thiefs has been getting yet i still play it but we all have a limit .

the only thing thief is good for is running away
i say go play something else, you’ll discover many new things that you’ll come to
enjoy
heck there might be other games you’d like better
i found mesmer to be a good replacement, lots of dmg and stealth
if u want BIG BIG burst, warrior definitely. power necro and burst ele’s have
good burst dps too.
power guardians have strong burst and solid survivability…takes forever to
kill them. They hit like a tank and tank…well like a tank. it’s ridiculous.

mmm…just about every class and do everything you do…but better with more options lol.

For PvP it doesn’t matter as you can always make a character of another profession in a few minutes.
None of the chances will have a noticeable impact on PvE.
WvW isn’t balanced around single players.

roaming thieves will be much harder to play with the blind powder nerf

Now the Problem what i see is that the thief gained nerv after nerv and that since realese.P/P is since realese crap, traps are since realese crap, venom share will be also after patch still crap.So we had many nervs but nothing back.

Thief is only good in roaming, in all other aspects he lacks hard but also here, he got wrecked more and more from other classes because condi meta in roaming becoming stronger and stronger and with his low HP pool…..

My bigger conern is not that thieves get nerfed every patch but the fact that anet never bothered to fix any issues that plagued thief class for years now. Probably 30% of my deathes in pvp come from port bug, around 10% from perma immob bug, sb bug etc etc.

I don’t think anything we say really matters since anet seems to be set on nerfing the class every patch w/o any meaningful buffs somewhere else while buffing every other class.

Just roll w/e is max cheese right now and enjoy the game. Unless you are amazing player or hipster, it won’t be worth playing thief looking at the trend of the past 2 years heh.

I love thief moblity, but every time i play my necro, warrior, mesmer i notice how much thieves are lacking in every other aspect.
In pve i would rather play my warrior since she brings more to team and more dmg in generall.
In wvw i almost always play my zerg support necro unless i roam.
PvP is only place where i play thief mostly but i feel like replacing her with guardian due to effectivness :/

after reading these comments and getting my butt kicked over and over again i decided to just give up on my thief and tried other class and got bored… so gonna try finding an other game to fill in my gaming needs lol
