If you REALLY REALLY want that “300” version of a spartan feeling while playing go play around with the warden class in LOTRO. While not a good game and generally it kept going downhill that class alone became the only joy for me for a long while. You will get the feeling that you are an invincible god of spartan warfare though while using a spear/shield, it just isnt very realistic.

Rule #1 in survey taking, be non-bias if your not non-bias your survey results mean nothing.

A lot of the questions on this are very bias.
Examples: “Do you hate being ‘forced’ to do them,”
“Is it nice that Arenanet got such a tight control of gold sinks and inflation”

The simplify your questions and remove any personal option. Your here to get others option not push your own

Although I 100% agree with you as that is how a survey SHOULD work, 9 times out of 10 a survey is done specifically to push ones own opinion through leading questions. Often intended (and much more subtle) they are designed to showcase how one is indeed correct or to sway people towards their opinion in whatever it is they are thinking and/or trying to prove by providing “evidence” that the majority of others feel the same as them. That being said I don’t believe this individual was trying to push his agenda in a malicious manner but probably did not realize that it was being done.

Who do you target?

Personally I like to target the warriors myself, steal into the middle of the group and if they dont have stability drop a knockdown trap and pop the warriors whirlwind i just stole, followed instantly by a daggerstorm. Usually a quite unhappy zerg at that point.

I updated your original build to a more maximized p/d condition build. It’s a pretty generic build that works quite well in wvw when it comes to tanking and handing out damage. Pay attention to the duration mark on it (+75% duration between food/sigil/runes) to get most out of your bleeds. Also notice that with both consumables I went one tier below max which saves you about 90% cost of those consumables.

The other AoD thief won by a hair (downed me as I was hitting stealth I stole from him whilst he was also very low hp). He played it very well (the funny part was though when we both popped elite skill at the same time to try and gain advantage).

To whomever the AoD thief up at Dredges was. Thanks for the very close and interesting 1v1. Well done.
