Guild Wars 2

its simple, remove initiative and change thief into a class with cooldown skills, for example, heartseeker on a 1 second cooldown would stop the kitten spamming as much, it would make the class much more balanced and wouldnt need any nerf to the damage

So get rid of one of the thief’s only class mechanics. Okay…

would you rather that or they could completely nerf the damage or remove the class, i wouldnt care honestly, i play necro, im saying it would be better, because honestly, that class is broken

HS spam don’t bother anyone who knows what he is doing.And in fact if HS was on 1 sec CD and w/o initiative the spammers would be way more.

Edit:I see that you insist sharing your knowledge.You don’t play thief ,but you know what will be better?How about C&D ,how much CD should have ? WHat about the numerous traits and UI skills that involve initiative regen or return?

The solution is to just ignore the stupidity that the uneducated masses spit out. Thief is fine, if they’d just rethink the quickness buff.

The best way is to play the class yourself and show everyone how op it is. That does not include newbie bashing. I agree thieves might feel very strong sometimes, but then they are weak to something else. If you them out you will find out the weaknesses thieves’ got.

HS on 1 second would mean base travel speed of a Thief to be what, 150%?

People will always say another class is OP. I just wonder how Mesmers and Warriours avoided huge nerfs yet.

One thing the Thief got against it tho is the stealth. People dont like when something you cant see comes out and burst damage you.
