Ok here is my take on the state of thiefs and mesmers in sPvP.
Thiefs right now are good, but NOT op at all. Most builds that i have seen use double dagger or double pistol. Reason why is that it’s really the only way a thief can do dmg that matters in a fight. So by saying this thiefs at this stage of the game are very linear in terms of builds. In 1vs1 situations, thiefs usually win because of how the class is. In group fights, in my opinon don’t do well. Reason why is that almost none of your skills do aoe dmg only single target dmg. Also thiefs are very SQUICKY, if you focus a thief during a group fight he or she is going to down very quickly, which usually does happen a lot.
To me the class overall isn’t op, just a few skills need a nerf like heartseeker. That skill I agree needs a nerf, it does too much dmg for its low cost and having no cooldown.
Mesmers right now I’ll say they are NOT op. They have the same problems as thiefs do as terms of builds they are very linear. I think the reason why people think they are op is that you just don’t know how to play againest one simple as that. Yes they are annoying to kill, because of their pets that they summon and there defense skills. But honestly if you can’t spot a mesmer running around their illusions spaming skills on you. I would have to say your a scurb numb, just have to get that off my chest, but i would have to say that moa bird elite skill is really op and unfair.
Other than that, the class isn’t op. It’s just that either people don’t know how to play againest one or you can’t target a mesmer running around their illusions spamming skills on you, in this case i have little hope for you.
(Pro Tip) Learn to play the class in order to beat the class.
