If you intend to pvp, either in WvW or sPvP, then the class is dead. Pick a different class and enjoy the game. I can log into my mesmer and let my cat walk across the keyboard and kill any skilled Thief in the game.
Ditto, I haven’t played in weeks. Class is in the graveyard currently.
What do you expect from a game with LITERALLY ZERO anti-cheat coding? Players have been teleporting, speed hacking, and zoom hacking since beta. Luckily, there’s very little that you can get away with in the competitive game modes while still remaining inconspicuous. The moment someone starts abusing teleport hacks to portal zergs into keeps or move golems across map, they immediately raise flags and the account is investigated by an invisible GM.
Agreed. This is why I am appealing to Anet to deal with it, and to servers like FA not to make exploits part of their culture.
Well, good luck to you. I am guessing that anti-cheat would consume too many resources to develop and that’s why we’re even having this conversation. As for removing ACs… it’s worth discussing.

All in all I’m disappointed as usual and the patch hasn’t even landed yet. New record for Anet considering this was supposed to be some big great change. Who am I kidding though? I’m amazed I actually had my hopes up for a few weeks and was excited for the upcoming thief changes prior to reading their latest information regarding it. I should have known better, shame on me.
Yeah, ANet screwed Thief big-time. I am beginning to wonder if any of the developers even play the class regularly. These are the most shortsighted and incompetent changes I’ve seen yet.
Class is dead. Roll anything else for the time being.
Honestly, do not bother. Your stun venoms are getting massively nerfed on June 23rd. This entire playstyle has been neutered because a bunch of kitten GWEN vets complained nonstop for the past two months.
I’m gona put my money on Rifle as well.
Thief lacks a weapon to go beyond 900range, it just isn’t there. Longbow is already going to Guardian and with Bandits there is perfectly good lore to justify a Rifle for Thieves.
On the other hand, a thief at 900range would be seriously OP.
Time to craft some Dire armor?
bumping to keep this on the front page. really worried that ANet thinks this issue is somehow resolved.
