Guild Wars 2

There is an anti-stealth this and that….
So where is my anti-armor trap?
Where is my block images.
Where is by magic suppression?
Where is my pet killer trap?

Its not like stealth is OP…unless of course you run into people using “enhanced” stealth….with an external enhancing program.

I’d rather have built in evasion than stealth.

It was never intended to be a perma stealth crutch. Don’t rely on it so much, and you will be fine.

Youre argument isn’t based very well. You say “wheres my anti armor trap?” yet there are such things in the game. Vulnerability is anti-armor. You talk about magic suppression, yet the thief uses magic himself and the most obvious magic suppresion are interrupts which arent even limited to magic. The counters to other classes are there, but you choose not to see them. You understand that sick’ em is the ONLY hard counter to stealth, as opposed to everything else which has more than 1 hard counter.

you know if you even thought about playing something other than a thief you’d realize how stupid your argument is.
stealth gives ultimate control of combat, theres 1 trap that any thief can just kill the guy laying it or interrupting him to destroy the trap since it costs 10 supply and has a 4 second cast time.

and some crappy ranger skill that has to be cast before the thief goes into stealth as it can’t find stealthed targets

YOU need to understand what a hard counter is. You can use vulnerability on ANY class, and interrupts on ANY class. If I use vulnerability on a lower armor class, it’s still effective.

… If I use reveal on a warrior… what’s that going to do? That’s a hard counter.

I still haven’t found anyone making active use of their anti-stealth. If it would happen at some point, I’d just dance around with S/D and have no care in the world (assuming 4 second reveal from Ranger).
