Hi, just got GW2 today and I’ve been patching it, so far im at 7% (~600Mbs). Is this a bad time to patch this game? cause I’m on a 10Gb internet max download plan. My speed is at ~100kb/s.
My Question is this how large is the current patch?

It’s the most absurd mechanic ever introduced into MMO’s and companies continue to make the same mistakes.

Well, how about we talk RPGs?
Do you not feel that Thief/Rogue is a staple RPG class which most fantasy RPGs should offer in one form or another? What would they be without the ability to sneak around (effectively not being noticed, and stealth is just a simplification of the concept)?

or Are you saying that Shadow Refuge and Blinding Powder are better than Veil and Mass Invisibility when it comes to Team Fight?
Cos I couldn’t agree less

That 2s stealth on Veil is game-breaking for sPvP, I know.
(I know it’s strong in WvW, but let’s be honest here: A lot of things need change in WvW, while being ~useless in the rest of the game. Veil is one of them.)

There are ways to maintain the feel of a thief without making it so blatantly broken. I mean even WoW had a better version until they made it fool proof. At least give people a way to see players in stealth or break people out of stealth. You shouldn’t be able to just pop stealth and stand right in front of someone. If you want to be sneaky, add an element of skill to that style of game play.

Guaranteeing stealth and openers is absurd. Misses from dodges, evades, or blocks should reveal the thief. What are you rewarded for by timing a dodge on their opener? That’s right…nothing but eating the opener anyways. There are so many things wrong with the thief profession in general with this game. Are they all OP? No, but they are sure frustrating to play against.

So you’re telling me that if my health is low, i can disappear like a magician troll noob and strike from the behind
