omg, i totally agree on Moa transform…..in fact, just like people cry about backstab everyone should cry about Moa transform. If the duration was only 3secs like some of the immobilize skills it would be no big deal but it lasts too long.
Thief is VERY squishy and any time there is focus fire on thief, you are dead almost instantly. There aren’t many builds to choose from either. You really can’t take a defense build because if you go defense your damage goes down way too much. If you go high health you are forced to run conditions that people can simply dispel. The nerf on p/w basically made the bs build the only go to build for pvp. Now, i don’t think people should be able to bs for 14k or higher. But many are going to try to exploit it as long a they can. I personally run a variant of backstab build but i can do, at most, around 5k dmg. BUT, I do have good mobility and I have ways of dispelling as well and initiative building. I gave up some things for survivability but I am still low hp and low defense. I think my build is somewhat unique as i’ve never seen anyone post the same build and it works for me, but I have never felt OP. I actually wish they would kill off the combination that allows a 15k crit or simply nerf the upper level of damage. Then maybe some of these people will quit playing thief (i feel there are too many also at this time) It wasn’t this way during initial launch or open betas.
