Guild Wars 2

Aiming for a dps (no condi) thief using d/p..

My question is: what should I aim for in terms of base hp, toughness and crit chance? (I will be using all exotics.. No ascended)

All the Power, Precision and Crit damage you can get versus all the thoughness and vitality you need to survive. About 15k health is common and upwards to 2500 armor (unbuffed).

Commonly used is, i think, Berserker trinkets and a mix of Soldiers (head, coat, leggings) and Berserker armor(shoulders, gloves, boots) .

to add to this, if you use hidden killer in the crit strikes line you can get away with lower precision and sub in some valkyrie gear for some berserkers pieces without hurting your damage output too much. the added survivability can help you out more than the damage lost when you are starting out.

I have played Guild Wars 2 for a year now and I used the thief for a very long time. I was trying to be a tank style thief. Tanking in WvW never works out because of all the other warriors that exist. I went over to Berserk-Roaming, taking out lone targets. Lone targets usually lead up to more(Tip) full Zerker will do well then with sigil of fire on a dagger

Go with Cavaliers and valkyrie mix and go 30 into critical strikes for “Hidden Killer”.

Atm my thief is only a lowbie, so i dunno how well this would work in WvW, but going by stats, it should be viable to roaming. Then again, theorycrafting, i may be wrong.

edit; reason why i picked the ascended zerker-valkyrie mix is that they give you quite a bit of precision alongside vitality. Feel free to change it out with berzerker, or you can use Magi gear. It will “magically” give you some more healing power (always a good thing) but the loss in power is noticable.
