Guild Wars 2

If you are using 100%crit from stealth is the extra precision worth it? It would help when finishing off someone, but on the other hand, the toughness and healing power from valkyrie is tempting, and still maintains crit damage.

You would die faster than you think with Valkyrie armour in PvP. Gives it a try and see it for yourself.

Thief is not designed to tank damage, hence why there are no thief bunker builds

Our survival comes from avoiding damage as much as possible, via dodges / skills with evade frames / teleports / stealth / condi cleaners / LOS (line of sight).

You really won’t notice a difference in your survival in PvP going full vit / healing / toughness (not to mention your damage will be completely crap). P/D thieves are not bunkers like an engi bunker. They survive good because they kite / avoid damage / stealth, they don’t stay in place and peeps beat on them and they soak the damage while throwing condi’s out
