Guild Wars 2

Pretty new to game. Running two daggers. I get the evading thing. I get the bow thing. I would like to see a post on how to START out as a thief, not endgame or pvp builds. Please post what you would have liked to have known when you first rolled a Thief! THANKS!

What I want to know is…

1. What is the basic burst rotation? Blossom-backstab(3x)-heartseeker?

2. Best ways to use stealth—from what I see my HEAL gives the best stealth—WTF?

3. What is the best trait tree STARTING OUT?

New to game. having lots of fun. Most of this game is brilliant. But…

1. I have finished 4 maps now and not one item received was usable. Not even the mats. I did get copper ore on the first one, but I was already onto silver as a Jeweler.

2. The auction house is clunky—really hate it. Needs total refurbish.

3. I won’t play a warrior or rogue now because they don’t have a +25% travel speed slot skill. Mesmer randomly gets a speed boost and I like mesmer, but tired of running. MOUNTS!

4. I have been doing the “daily reward” program. Not bad. Teaches you how to evade that’s for sure. But the “monthly” seems unattainable. I have no idea how to get into a dungeon and I never salvage stuff except some of the jewelry I make. So this “monthly” program seems to be for people other than me, who has just started the game. I sell absolutely everything I get except gems and ore and “glittering powder” because THAT is the best money. I never open bags because the bag will sell for more than the mats inside the bag. I never sell accumulated mats on the AH because I hate the auction house. CLUNKY! So the whole “salvage kit” part of the “monthly” thingy is goofy…

5. Tried both kinds of PvP. The structured was not bad but you can’t level with structured pvp—or I didn’t seem to get any xps. The WvW was atrocious. Running running jumping off cliffs to get to a fight that is done when you get there? Not for me. Building trebuchets to knock down a wall I can’t even see? Ridiculous. Absolutely no clue what is going on. None. The chat is undecipherable “come to xyz so the abc won’t breach the efg” wtf that means LOL.

6. Except for Jeweler, crafting seems just crazy complex. And for what? At least with Jeweler you can use what you make. You got Jeweler right. The other crafts? I will just stay away. Although I have “heard” in guild chat that Cooking is easy to max once you get some decent coin saved up.

The auction house is clunky. I am not concerned that Candy Corn is the hottest selling item and that 200k of them are available. Less drop down menus, a “useable” button would be nice too. Thanks.
