Just to clear up some confusions you might have about playing a thief in sPvP …
Every thief uses Shadow Step. Offensively and defensively.
The build you use has been around since day one.
Making a video of insta-gibbing glass cannon’s in hot join isn’t going to get you a lot of kudos.
Might wanna check your keyboard, you’re number 2 button might be a little stuck.
And I recommend exploring dagger/pistol, there’s more buttons to press.
You’re right! 5 2 and 1 to put blind field down, heartseeker through it and backstab is more buttons than… 5 2 1 on D/D to C&D, backstab and heartseeker. Nice observation skills!
ill be the first to go ahead and say there isnt much skill in this video, i focused more on what i can do with fast paced video editing, and the clips which had the fastest pace were those in which i downed people the fastest
Tbh i expected some hate from the professional hipster yolo aristocrat builds, but when it comes down to it, most thief builds spam in one way or another, whether that be pistol whip, blind field + stealth combo, stealth in general, flanking strike, unload, cluster bomb, death blossom. You name it, it gets spammed.
In the end my build goes on what works, accomplishing the same goal in a longer amount of time =/= more skill just like that. Either way when i go on to make future videos i know what kind of clips to use. Thanks for the feedback guys, most of it made me laugh
