Why can some Thieves kill my level 80 instantly?

They’re using an exploit that I’ve, admittedly, proven works. You basically hit you’re cloak and dagger then steal ability, in that order, instantly. The result starts the CnD animation while putting you next to your opp. You instantly go stealth when CnD finishes, then you backstab for about 9k. Between those 2 hits, +Mug which hes likely specced for hitting for about 4, any health you have left over is minimal at best.

Anyway, this isn’t an exploit. It’s a known mechanic that any insta-cast ability can be used during a channel cast, and is actually one of the linchpins to effective Elementalist play.

So a question i have is why does all the Sylvari Cultural armor have precision and condition dmg on it what about the other classes it really bothers me hehe. Those are the only two stats for heavy armor unless they just expect people to Transmog the armor is this the case?

You do realise that precision and condition give you the highest dps dmg.

Precision and power, actually, unless you’re using a weapon set that specifically focuses on damage conditions. As a Dagger/Pistol thief, condition damage is nearly worthless to me. The only thing it’s going to boost is my auto-attack poison on the third hit of the chain.

What made you want to play a Sylvari?

Originally it was because I was going to do a sylvari necromancer for the growth-and-decay aspect… also because of the amusement factor of a vegetable with meat puppets. I lost interest in necromancer, though, and rerolled as thief, keeping sylvari because bioluminescence is cool, and the sylvari T3 medium cultural armor is totally a vegetative ninja.
