really. Whoever came up with this did never play a thief.

+1

This nerf is really unacceptable

+1, this really hurts voluntary support and ooc movement speed, especially for power based thieves.

Someone please beat Karl with a staff.

I love this change. No more wasted steals.

Anet please leave this change exactly how it is.

If you were wasting steals its a l2p issue.

+1 and fix withdraw

+1
But democracy has no power here.

+1
b/c “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it” and u made a problem out of nothing.
but IF you are not going to completely reverse this then you could at least give us a toggle setting for this or something or fix all the other classes that can do similar things ooc like teleporting to targets not intended to be teleported to and such.

you realize that by not fulling understanding a class by actually playing that class to the full extent like an everyday player would then you are going to do nothing but make ppl mad and i’m not mad im just offended especially offended that you “stealth nerfed” this thats not good business either.

+1
I have 2 thiefs, make them useful again pls

+1 Between all the nerfs and other professions overboosts, this just has no place balance wise. Bug or no bug, it worked fine from a balance point of view.

If your intend is purely to be able to scream ‘yay we fixed a true bug, we are true codemasters now’, right ok keep the bug fixed, but give thrill of the crime a new purpose, sometimes like if you do X, you get the boons (same duration), cooldown 15-20 seconds. Now that would be good management.

Keep it like this, and you basically trolled us. Yes it’s a bug fix. Yes it made a bad profession worse. That is childish trolling tbh anet. This is far from good business management.

+1

Please bring this back

+1
We got this and still no signs of the 10% heal buff. gg.

+1
Thief just lost a part of what little support we could offer to the team… Swiftness and fury where nothing great, but it helped when it was missing…
Now I might as well put my thief on leave until their is even 1 thing thief is good at… Maybe at next balance patch or at least I will get a good laugh at all other classes then…

+1
I also pm’ed a dev to see if I could get at least a response whether this is a change they implemented on purposes or a mistake. Let’s see if I get a response (and then what sort!).

+1
And again a ninja Nerv….

What’s that anet? 0.0

I also like this change.

+1 please reverse

+1
“Wasted Steals”? Lol l2p

+1
the new low reached

+1 of course…
…and pls fix other bugs and rebalance this class.

1. No one wants to have a thief in raid.
2. Thieves are out of meta.
3. Thieves have (now) even less support.
4. Thieves are squishy as hell with lower health. (though same with Eles and Guards)
5. Thieves damage/sustain balance is garbage compared to other classes. (as example: a necro can have up to 56k Healthbar and still deal good damage while having better sustain.)
6. Thieves condi weaponset is disbalanced (D/D Powerset except #3, P/P Condiset except #3), no Access to burning.
7. Stealth is almost useless cause of the many aoe, traps and reveal skills in PvP/WvW. That was supposed to be our biggest defensiv skill.
8. Other classes can reveal us while the “master of stealth” can’t do anything about it.
9. Scorpion Wire is a broken Utility skill, no one cares. Withdraw was promised to have 10% more healing Efficiency, since it has now a longer cooldown. Nothing done til now.

And to top this all, instead of rebalancing our class to make the thief worth playing, A-net is ninja nerfing another skill!!!! WHY???

+1

Please let me “Thrill of the Crime” my allies in PvE.

Only profession that didn’t get a “bug fix” or “visual noise reduction” gets a nerf. Thanks Anet…

+1

If this was meant to be a Quality of Life fix, they failed. If this was meant to be a bug fix, they just whacked us with a nerf.

+1

Please revert back ALL nerfs to thieves. Ever wonder how much micro-managing and gameplay experience goes into playing a solid thief compared to other more "user-friendly" classes?

Anet Pls.

+1
Please, I want my swiftness back.

+1
PvP is a kittening mess, Thieves are bottom Tier, and they still nerf the class? What a joke. So glad I didn’t buy the expansion

+1
What a joke anet, did you play your own game? Are there any Devs who play thief? this class is bottom tier in nearly overall modis and what did you do about it? You nerv it once more! What is that for a logic?

The “Bug Fixed” should works like that: If you have a target and it out of range, give you that warning. If you don’t have a target, let us use it like it was.

That out of range then do nothing should only be helper for new player. but really bad for creative playing, now I cannot use some movement skill to make a long jump because it is “out of range”…………………. So It should be an option which can be turn off.

+1

This is a nerf to Thief

Nah.

Every single thief has wasted their steal on the millisecond before a target goes into stealth. Denying that means you’re lying.

No more wasted CDs.

One change that I totally agree with.

This could be said of literally any skill with a cooldown. By this logic all skills shouldn’t be usable if they have a chance of failing. Why not make blinding powder unusable while you have revealed active; who needs blind and a blast finisher.

There are ways around this that usually involve changing your skill rotation against classes that enter stealth easily, such as waiting to use your steal until after they are revealed when their stealth ends. This change just lowers the skill ceiling of thief a bit to help new or inexperienced thieves feel less punished, which is not something this class is in need of right now.

I’m pretty sure ALL thieves have wasted a steal CD at one point or another. Saying otherwise merely makes you a liar lol.

+1

This was a nub move. L2P(program]

And do you know how often a warrior wastes his 100 blades?

I don’t have to buy this naow. https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Peasant's_Solution

+1, but we know ANet don’t give a kitten, because it’s Thieves. Whoever it was that liked the idea of Thieves in the first place clearly left before launch and it’s been a downhill ride since.

Well done. It is fixed!
