1) Look up thief trait builds (this will also tell you what to buy for step 2)
2) Buy some equipment of yellow or higher quality. Most importantly you want an exotic weapon
3) Read what other classes can do (in general, I’m not asking you to memorize everything)
4) Practice a lot because a lot of roaming people are pretty good at 1v1s so don’t expect to beat anyone your first time

The other option is to run in a zerg. This is really easy: equip a shortbow, bind every key to either 1 or 2, and roll your face on the keyboard.

First of all, you need to be clear on what weapon setup you’re using.
I assume you’re going D\D so the main issue here is timing and learning how and when to Cloack and Dagger.
Talking about gear i’m a balancaed stats fan, so my advice would be to try to improve your gear, reaching the goal of atleast 1,2-1,5k thougness 90% crit damage and around 40-50% crit chance.
This can be reached via Valkyrie gear (Power Vitality Crit Damage) with Berseker Trinkets and the 0/30/30/10/0 Hidden killer build (http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fYAQNAoYVlUmiO3ey5E+5Ey2jKcnIKuHGVS1UdF4KA)
The build showed above is a good start if you’re aiming to play mostly D\D, credits goes to Yshis for providing the build.
If you’re going to be a P\D condition build with loltrops i suggest going full Carrion armor (Power Vitality Condition Damage) with 2 Krait runes 2 Centaur runes and 2 Afflicted runes. Trinkets will be Chrysocola.
Two builds i can suggest are P\D loltrops (http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fYAQNAqYVlUmKP3ey5E+5EB3jk60m6p4rjtTBXlPA) or P\D venoms (http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fYAQNAqYVlUmKP3ey5E+5EB3jkC1mqpQm2sTBXlPA)
These are the goals you can keep in mind and can work towards in my opinion.
Hope i’ve been useful
Cheers,
