I took a break for about a month, thinking that by the time I come back they will have made some effort to balance PvP, especially thieves.
First game I join, was fighting a decent 1v1 vs a guardian, then bam – instantly downed, with no one but guardian around me. Thief appears and I get stomped. Backstab about 10k in 1 hit.
I alt-F4’d immediately. Think I’ll give it a few more months.
