Thief
Omg i cannot win this maguma ultra-super power open field tactic ** .. sorry Jq we have to learn from them …
I understand why price of Sup Ac going up so fast….
Thanks for the free loot bag yee scrub. I understand why the price of heavy loot bags are going down so fast, also that’s me the Bronze Knight [NOVA]
Logged of from boredom on Mag BL after both opposing servers ran from 30 or less of us mixed group for two hours…
you were probably outnumbered 3 to 1 as well…
Guardians is obviously the answer.
LOL! VR had much larger numbers than our guild had on the map. Condition removal is the answer guardians are best at that. Please Keep in mind it took VR and INC just to take on NS or HzH alone with any success. VR had more of their guild out than either of ours.
I was only going to post these in on the Mag forums but since HzH feels the need to chest thump about winning after Mag goes to bed, and now saying that somehow your full Q is smaller than ours… This is what happened for the first 4 hours of the reset on Mag Bl.
Part 1 – http://youtu.be/6h4uVgsHbBc
Part 2 – http://youtu.be/PtWmEy37ONcThe entire 4 hours I was downed once and died 0 times, this was the first night I’ve ever gotten over 1k kills. You didn’t lose due to numbers or conditions, you lost due to standing in MS’s all night, NS lost due to 11-12 Necro’s blind spamming, chilling and boon stripping them all night.
Ahh great videos! Best reset farm yet. I must have gotten over 1k kills myself.
yeah I just made 250 crates, if those keys aren’t 285 commendation tokens, I’m going to cry.
To the E-BAY thief with Bolt from the Aeternia ( sp? ) guild, your teleport/speed hacks spanning 1600+ range were extremely obvious. I hope that the people on your server do the right thing and report you.
I am a thief and the Shadow return on the Swords #2 ability has a range well over 1,600. I use it often for guerrilla warfare type tactics to get in and out of a large group for stomping out the lower health players. Test it out for your self before accusing others of hacks and I hope you didn’t use the report tool against him because it’s a in game skill nothing wrong with it.
Why is this in the Thieves forum?
Because in about 5 days the Thief class will possibly be nerfed into the ground due to accusations that we do too much damage from melee/stealth. If you can use your brain you will see that this Warrior is doing more damage from ranged yet it is “ok”. Please try to comprehend simple things when they are put in front of you…………
Nope……… Thief videos or GTFO…………………
Why is this in the Thieves forum?
hmm never had trouble with a Guardian or a Warrior, I got full knight’s (Main-Toughness, Precision, Power.) and probably the only thief out there with 3.3k toughness. traits 10-30-30-0-0 and I roll S/D. CC and conditions aren’t a issue because of Infiltrators Strike.
Heart Seeker damage increases at <50% and <25% of the targets health. It is a strong skill only as a finisher, but If he opened up with it and spammed it on you right off the bat, then it’s safe to assume he’s a noob who lost to a Heart Seeker spam noob, so the noob thought it was a super OP skill, he then himself morphed into a HS spam noob and now most thieves went full kitten on HS. That’s the way she goes… That being said, I hope you destroyed that thief because it’s Thieves like that, that make us look bad.
I’m going to go with a stealth nerf and I think S/D should be on that list.
Infiltrator’s Strike>CnD>Tactical Strike(2 second Daze) is better than PW in my opinion.How is a two second daze better than +10K damage.
In my opinion, PW shouldn’t have been nerfed in its damage, they should have just removed the stun. It’s better to provide a way to avoid an ability than to downgrade the ability’s damage, since that greatly affects pve as well.
+10k damage could be easily achieved, with the CnD (1/2 the base damage of PW) it takes to setup Tactical Strike and the normal attacks while your target is under the effects of daze. furthermore while the target is dazed your revealed CD will just about end, you could easily Infiltrator Strike>CnD>Daze him again. You barely get hit, because you’re mostly stealthed and they’re dazed. I can’t recall if I lost a 1v1 with this build. (and I’m on a losing server with no orbs)
On the topic of nerfs. Does anyone else notice the Infiltrators Strike’s Shadow Return has a range of +5,000? I tested too see how far it can go at one point in time and I swear it was like +5,000 range I even had to load the map.
Edit: About my earlier comment, I meant to say Tactical Strike should be on that list, because I think it’s a skill that people would QQ about, but I don’t see any thieves using it. (maybe because the damage isn’t as flashy as HS, PW, or Backstab)

5 second stealth timer too without the trait, and it’s really great for getting the backstab opener on them because they don’t know you’re going to be there. It’s a really good trap, one of my favorite.
Back stab doesn’t even have the highest base damage(not counting assassin’s signet), but that’s impressive I only hit a 900k
nope, perfectly fine skill, nothing to see here.
only thing it’s really missing is armor type e.g light, medium, heavy. I find it annoying when I search for a medium armor for my character and I have to go through all the heavy and light as well.
I couldn’t agree more with Shomaruki’s comment, it really makes it that much better and hit more often too.
on the topic of fly hacking, has anyone noticed speed hacks? I’m a thief so I’m very mobile, but this one character must have been running at about 250% speed and he didn’t have any boons. I use very mobile utilities to get around such as Shadow Step, Infiltrators signet, Infiltrators Strike (#2 on sword skill) those alone can cover 2,600 range in two seconds and Signet of Shadows (25% movement speed). This random and I on my server were 2v1ing this guy and he books it to his nearest tower leaving us in the dust, using all my gap closer’s he still gets away, and after using all classes I know none are as mobile as a thief . Is hacking even possible?
I got 3,000+ WvW kills so far and about 600 badges, I don’t miss a loot bag very often either, but I do a lot of damage and finish the kills too. That being said maybe 20% of your kills will drop a badge or two.
I bought a full set of ‘Superior Rune of The Pack’ and noticed that the, third slot (50 Power) and the forth (you and your allies have a 5% chance to gain might, shiftness, and fury when you attack) don’t work. When being attacked not when I attack like the rune states, I often get a wolf animation overhead howling, assuming it’s from the runes, but My allies and I, aren’t granted any boons.
I was hoping that the superior rune of the pack would be fixed in the most recent patch, but no such luck.
The forth slot doesn’t work either, I noticed I get a wolf howling over my character so I’m assuming that’s from the forth slot of the pack rune but no boons are granted to me or my teammates like it says.

Same thing is happening to me. I try to buy something my money is gone but at the pick up tab nothing shows up, also when I sell something on the TP my item is gone but still no money to pick up.
