Ok I am pissed by this thief bug. I termed it as a bug because I think the thief exploitation of the games loophole is not intended as a game design and hence need fixing just like any other bugs.
The thief bug that I refer to is their ‘stealth and alt-F4’ ability. Everytime a thief loses a fight (with probably <10% hp) they do a stealth and then alt-F4 to exit the game totally, thereby effectively offering them a failsafe getaway EVERYTIME.
I am pissed off because such encounter are becoming very frequent now. Within the half an hour time, I encounter 3 different thief enemies doing exactly the same thing.
I hope this will get some fixing from Anet. If otherwise, and Anet ‘endorse’ such unfair exploitation of the stealth mechanics, then I will level a thief and do the same to the enemies and pissed them off too. I am pissed, the enemies will be pissed and every customer will be pissed. The only loser will be Anet. The choice is yours.
