I agree, it didn’t break it. Just made it more challenging.
Personally I’m hoping it forces us to find other ways to use all that stealth to our advantages (hopefully much more effective).

I’ve been playing a thief since launch (yet I’m still level 49 haha). From a pve standpoint, I personally find that bursting is really good (dagger/dagger pistol/pistol, I don’t tend to have a problem at all in pve). However, as I’ve read on the forums (and somewhat agree with), pre 30 you’ll struggle slightly.
In regards to dungeons, you do have some pretty good utilities but you need to coordinate well with your team beforehand to make sure they go as planned. However, they’ve nerfed stealth so that agro still applies so I’ve yet to see how that plays out now.
Any build where you have pistol as the offhand weapon gives you an interrupt skill and a “yay you missed me” skill :p

In terms of pvp, I can only say what I’ve read, but generally your job is to get in, burst them down, get out. Again I recommend using your interrupts and bleeds as much as possible.

Hope that helped.

I agree with Vexus, Black Powder has saved my butt on more than one occasion
