Guild Wars 2

Why is it bad?
At least it can stack, and that’s handy!

@Israel:

At the moment, only 2.5 % of the players on GW2Efficiency have a rank above 2000. Knowing that Gw2 efficiency registered players are probably a lot more invested than regular players, I’d say that less than 1% of the players are above rank 2000.
Now you remove all the people above rank 2000 not interested in T3 armor with particles, let’s say half.
So you have 0.5% of the players that can get that armor for the moment. I don’t think it’s necessary to increase the cap to 6000, 2000 is high enough.

Think about all the hardcore roamers that played since the start and are "only"rank 1500-4000. A lot of guys played the same amount of hours with more tanky classes in zergs, and have much higher ranks at 6000+ (and I’m not even talking of the guys that farmed EOTM…) Don’t you think roamers and zergers have the same right to wear those T3 armors?
The 2000 rank requirement is prestigious enough! Past this 0.5% of the population, you’ll still have your rank to show how much you are worth (if you really think rank reflects that)

And I’m not speaking about my own case. My rank is much lower than this 2000 cap and I don’t think I’ll ever get to 2000 soon!

Yeah I totally agree even if I own HoT! Keep it as it is!… It’s not like they could really enjoy all the features of gliding ^^

This just happened to me 5 minutes ago… glad to see i’m not the only one!
It also happened the 1st week without any notification… We were also around 23 minutes left

I simply don’t understand… I play thief DD/SB, almost 100% zerk. I tried 6 times and it heals back up everytime. I had all the boosts possible (armor, damage, food, etc…) and this is clearly not doable by my character (i’m full ascended too). I’ve a good experience of thief playing and I never got such a problem! I can keep the stacks on her very low (0-3) but it always end the same way… And also, why isn’t it possible to dodge some of her attacks?
Maybe I’m doing something wrong?

Hello everybody!

This is one of my first messages on this forum, but I have been reading it for a long time. I’ve been playing thief since I began GW last year. I really enjoy WvW (especially WvW) and I discovered SD thief a few months ago (the classic build , 26006 or something, I forgot already…). I became quite good and really enjoyed the moves and fights this class could bring.
I played D/D at first for a long time, but it feels far less rewarding and fights are not as classy with double dagger. I tried D/P but I definately don’t like this.
I was about to finish my full zerker ascended set when the trait update came in.
Now, I feel that there is NO synergy in the traits for SD and NO sustainability – at all.
So here are my questions. If I want to enjoy WvW again:

-Is there a way to efficiently play SD thief at this moment? (I’ve a build that enables me to sometimes kill people, but I’m really far from what I was before)
-Should I trade some zerker items with something else?
-Is there another solution with thief that does NOT include playing DP?

OR

-Should I play another class to wait for some fixes? I have 3 other lvl 80: necro, mesmer and guardian. I’ve not really played them in WvW yet and I don’t know the builds.
-Which of these classes is the funnier and stronger at this moment? With what build?

I know I ask a lot but I’m really disappointed at this moment, and I really want to find that smooth feeling I had when I played my thief back then…

Thanks for any advice guys, cheers!
