This wasn’t an alt account though, Wesley says that he was playing on his main. Is he just not allowed to play with any of his friends since he started Leagues late? Why blame the player when the system is clearly broken?
OP (Master Saitama), you should be the last person complaining about losing pips. I have not yet seen more severe abuse of the system / balance since leagues were launched.
How dare you ask for 3 pips when you yourself have the audacity to group up as a 5 man party consisting of 3 diamonds, 1 ruby and and 1 EMERALD. On top of that, you were running 2 mesmers and 3 revenants.
Lets not beat around the bush, we all know you have that emerald to lower your MMR. Hope you feel good about making it to legendary while farming solo queue players for two weeks straight using the cheesiest comp possible.
Next time you post here regarding a flaw in the system, please take one look in the mirror.
Just because he’s playing with a friend who is an Emerald doesn’t mean that this system isn’t broken. I fail to see how this is relevant to the system we are talking about in this post.
That’s exactly what you said at the top of the thread. If that isn’t the issue, what is?
You guys in a lot of fights where the CD reduction of Haste from Trickster is relevant? Really? I think if so you have bigger issues than min/maxing your Thief DPS.
The CD reduction is so that it will be up for every fight in a dungeon. In dungeons like CM, where the bosses are around 30 seconds apart from each other, it’s nice to have quickness for each fight. And Thrill of the Crime + Bountiful are pretty much useless if your group is half competent. Eles can cap fury easily, and Warriors take care of might. Vigor is an extremely weak boon since the nerf and is detrimental to Warrior DPS.
If quickness is messing up the CnD/Backstab rotation, then learn how to do the rotation with quickness. When it comes to DPS, Flanking/Trickster is undoubtedly the better choice.
Well, Trickster actually has synergy with Flanking Strikes, so even if you don’t have a Trick on your util bar, it still has it’s uses. In fact, it is currently bugged and reduces the cooldown by 24 seconds as opposed to 12 which means you can have it up for pretty much every boss fight in most dungeons.
In most meta groups your team will be capped on Fury and Might which makes Thrill pretty much useless. Vigor isn’t a very good boon now that it has been nerfed and warriors lose DPS by getting Vigor, so Bountiful Theft can actually harm your party’s DPS. Obviously there are some places where running Thrill is better, but in an ideal party composition and setting, Flanking/Trickster is the best option.
Flanking Strikes and Trickster are definitely the best choice for DPS. Trickster actually has synergy with Flanking Strikes in that it reduces the cooldown of that trait by 24 seconds (currently bugged in that it is twice as effective), which will pretty much allow you to have it up for every fight. This means that if you have Flanking Strikes + Haste (utility) + Guard Quickness, you can have permanent quickness for every fight. This means faster Icebows and Heartseekers. If you are messing up your CnD + Backstab rotation because of quickness, then that is just a problem of being unfamiliar with the proper rotation. It’s still better DPS to have quickness.
Bountiful Theft really isn’t that good. Vigor actually makes a Warrior’s DPS rotation more difficult as they want to keep low endurance, and Vigor really isn’t that strong since it got nerfed. On top of that there is a small handful of bosses where you can actually strip boons.
You can also just slot Thrill for out of combat runs and then switch to Flanking before the fight starts. Most meta compositions will be capped on Might and Fury anyway.
The Mesmer running ahead to Destroyer only saves about 10 seconds, it isn’t a very long run. They also took a Guardian instead of a Thief so their kills were a bit faster since we have to 4 man one of the bosses and don’t have quickness for every fight.
There aren’t many portal spots, and the constant quickness is nice.
I recently got an Amex prepaid gift card and activated it. However whenever I put in the information to buy gems, it isn’t working. I filled all the fields, but it keeps saying my CVV is wrong despite the fact that it is correct. Anybody have any solutions? Thanks.
I recently got a Visa vanilla card with 80 dollars on it. I tried to purchase 20 dollars worth of gems, but it didn’t work. I have used a vanilla card before and it worked then (which was about a week ago), but now it is failing. I also know it is not a problem with the card as I am able to purchase using it elsewhere. I have filled in all the fields including the Visa symbol, and have tried everything. I still keep getting a payment failed message. I have been seeing people with a similar problem with Vanilla cards and hope Anet can fix this as soon as possible. If anyone knows any fixes, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
In answer to both your posts on this issue, have you contacted Customer Support? If not, you can and they will assist you. Top of page – Services – Support – Ask a Question. Good luck. =)
Thanks Ill definitely do this.

Yeah, I’m having the exact same problem. Glad it isn’t a problem with my card, just a problem with the gem purchasing feature I guess. Hopefully Anet can fix it soon.
