Ah yes, the ‘maybe <insert game name here> is more suited for you’ argument. Funny, the only people that seem to be vehemently defending Thief on a constant basis are Thief players. Do you see the same amount of QQ in ANY of the other profession sub-forums? I’m aware there’s QQ toward stealthers in other MMOs, been playing them for 10 years. One thing i’ll tell you, i’ve never seen a stealther in another MMO that i’ve played with the amount of in-combat stealth that GW2 Thieves possess. But hey, maybe you’re right…MAYBE this is a learn-to-play issue for EVERYONE else and the Thief community as a whole is just on a totally different skill level. I suspect that isn’t the case though. What are you going to reroll to when they nerf the BS build?

There’s an old saying, it’s been around for a long time for good reason; Where there’s smoke there’s fire.

Thieves aren’t a problem for EVERYONE else. I leveled a thief to 80 and put the time in to learn how to counter the class. I love seeing a thief trying to take my ele or war 1v1. Not gonna happen unless half my CD’s are down and all theirs are up.

To the re-roll comment. Ele already my fav class and I prefer condition build on thief over BS. I’m not a glass cannon fan in general.

The point to my original reply to this post was to point out that BS is a joke if you know how to play against it.

Well, I did say ‘most people’…didn’t say, ‘ME’. Reading comprehension perhaps? And the thread i’m referring to is in this very sub forum, lmao. 5-6 threads down, the one with the Anet response in it. They’re toning down your classes spike damage (at least BS, from what I got), sorry :/ Of course, if most of you are as pro as you claim to be, the nerf will do very little to affect how much you faceroll your opponent…right?

You said people. You are a person right? Species comprehension perhaps?

They are looking at it because the squeaky wheel gets greased (For the record I do support the tweaks that have been made to thief so far). If they do nerf bat our spike damage then you will QQ about stealth and then our condition stack builds. (Maybe angry birds or Pokemon is a better game for you?)

And history repeats itself. In EVERY MMO people QQ about the stealth class.

If you are still getting face rolled by a BS thief it is a L2P issue.

If you haven’t figured out by now that you need to move away when they stealth. L2P
If you don’t layout any AOE for a thief you realized is stealth. L2P
If you run without a stun break and/or damage mitigation skill in PvP. L2P
If you are running 30/30/x/x/x spec with zerk amulet and are getting gibbed. L2P
If you don’t know any of the sound cues for the CnD, steal, BS combo, you probably wont know when to dodge. L2P
A thief misses CnD or BS he screwed. If you don’t use blinds for thieves. L2P
If you survive the initial burst and don’t use any form of CC after. L2P

Once you have survived the burst thieves can only do like once every 45 secs, give him a paper cut and you win.

Unfortunately, according to a post in this sub forum, Anet disagrees with you.

Pretty much, if you DO use that argument, the first time you pull it out…people will stop reading right there.

Maybe that’s the problem. Instead of learning how to counter a class people just QQ forums. If good advice is included with a L2P comment then it might be worth your while to take a look.

Furthermore, the title of the post has L2P in it. If you stopped reading right there, why are you here trolling?

Thanks OP, this needs to be said. For you entitled, QQ, I get a ribbon for 7th place, babies who come into forum and junk it up with you sob letters, go roll a thief. Level it to at least 40 and play at least 20 pvp matches with it. ACTUALLY LEARN the class you want to counter (crazy idea right?) instead of crawling to the forums and crying to Anet in a Cartman voice, "But Mooooomm Every 45 secs Thieves can wreck other glass cannon spec who don’t carry a stun break!!!!
