Nerfing tankiness on them needs to happen as this game doesn’t need anymore power creep, but I feel your pain. I just don’t engage a scrapper 1v1 as it’s not worth it.

I managed to crit a scrapper in wvw for 1.7k using LS. Normally hit from 4.5-6k.

When using sword in Spvp with marauder, I only usually see 1.5-2.1 crits on anything. On the rare blue moon I may hit above 3K if the vulnerability is high enough. They may have buffed sword speed and after casts, but it is still an under whelming weapon. It reads as if it should be cool and dynamic to use, but at the pace the game moves it comes across as bulky and some what awkward. Most players who have some experience with thief understand the potential of what sword could be, yet it has not delivered on that potential in quite some time now. regardless of its buffs.

what? you managed to actually hit scrapper? kitten mate you’re in luck because most of the time they either block or evade attacks

i can run my full crit dmg build having about 2600dmg with 80% crit chance and about 250% crit dmg, backstab does 2k xD
but all the scrappers say they are balanced, i mean if they hit me for 15k just pressing #3 of course it’s balanced

Belive it or not, I use scrapper runes in pvp and wvw. That’s probably why xD

I do decent damage vs. scrappers… when I manage to land an attack on them. They are just so obnoxious to fight.

Just when you think you have them nailed, they hide behind gearshield for 3 secs, or they shrink to mini mode and afterwards they pop no cast time stealth copter. At this stage as a thief you gotta GTFO immediately or get burst down from stealth by their hammer skills.

So with the correct utils and traits they can have almost 9s god-mode (gear shield + elixer S util + elixir S 25% life trait) + instant stealth after godmode ends.

It’s so infuriating watching a whole group chasing after a tiny shrunken engineer for 6 seconds.

Classes should have weaknesses to exploit – like for instance Reaper is very strong but pretty slow so you can work around that. It just seems that scrappers have all the pro’s without any con’s.

Pfft LS is unblockable
