Guild Wars 2

Omerta.9820:

I’m with OP and PhoenixSon. I need a leveling guide. Currently using dual pistols and a shortbow. Can’t seem to figure out anything better than those for pve leveling. Any of you higher levels out there, please help. Thanks.

I’m using S/P because of Pistol Whip + Blind. IMO its the best viable option for leveling, but anything should work. It all depends on playstyle + preference.

EDIT: Lvl 80 thief playing since beta weekend.

Awesome thanks man. Yeah I don’t really WvW or PvP much so I don’t think I’ll need venom or scorpion wire..haste is really nice. Yeah I guess it is all situational in the end.

I’ve been playing with this build for about an hour now and its excellent! The survivability is great. Once I got even a green set of valkyrie and berserkers, my health was 17k and my damage was higher. Thanks for the help guys! I still haven’t been able to find some good utilities though..I’ve got Shadow Refuge, Signet of Agility, and the Assassin’s Signet…these good enough?

Could you give me the traits for that build (10/30/0/20/10)? Also, what would provide an optimum mix of damage + survivability, set wise? Yes I’m using black powder, and what utilities would I use with this setup as well?

I’ve got a 25/30/0/0/15 build going right now (no cookie cutter build, just one I thought looked good). My problem is despite being a thief, my damage is horribly low. I run with S/P and P/P for melee, and S/P + Sbow for dungeons. My crits are usually around 2.5k and from what I understand that isn’t too good. I find it somewhat difficult to survive in groups with a full glass cannon set, so what would you recommend I go with gear + accessory wise? Currently I’m in full rare MF gear that a guildie gave me.
