Guild Wars 2

I feel like this was the laziest balance patch for Thieves yet. We’ve been in such a slump because of our lack or utility and the only thing we get that has any impact is our auto attacks buffed? When it was teased that that was one of the changes I wasn’t too upset until the release came out and that was pretty much it for relevant changes.

The one good thing for Thieves, though, is the buff to Basilisk Venom which was a much needed change due to the amount of blocking and Aegis currently in the game.

I can’t give much more insight on the balance changes as I only play Thief and it’s kinda ruining my enjoyment of the game with the lack of support we receive.

I like to play Guild Wars 2. All of it. PvP, WvW, PvE, etc. I want to participate in the Tequatl event, but in order to fill out my daily runs of dungeons, my daily achievements, daily SAB runs, and other stuff, I can’t afford to just akitten Sparkfly Fen for a chance to get into an organized server/overflow. I don’t know why this event is made impossible for a group that isn’t in 80% in Teamspeak.

Preparedness – 15 points in Trickery (Condition Damage trait tree) – Increases maximum initiative by 3.

Now by rework, I don’t mean change how many points or anything that it gives. What I mean is, as a Thief main, I find it quite annoying when I run a Zerk build that I have to put 15 points in Trickery for this arguably necessary trait. It has become annoying for me atleast because I’m losing out on either the Grandmaster trait skill on either Deadly Arts or Critical Strikes.

Now this may not sound like a really big deal and, to be honest, it’s not. I just think the trait would be better aligned at a 10 point, or a 5 point in any tree. 15 points is just an annoying investment, that’s all.
