Hello guys? I recently got my self an new computer- I’ve not replaced it with my old one yet due to one question; Is my gw2 characters and such saved on the user and the web- or save files on the computer it self? I’d rather not loose 5000 hours of effort :P
Thanks guys, but is there no real other options than condi or P/P? They both have slightly too low skillfloor- i’ve fought decent evadeish shortbow + S/D thieves what kind of build do they use in WvW?
Hello guys! I’m a thief from Far Shiverpeaks [EU]. I got roughly about 4600 hours over 600 days, with about 3800 on thief. I spent most my time roaming on my D/D thief, i even managed 1v7 some times. I’m a Dungeon/PvE hater so i didn’t have much money to experiment and such but i watched some videos online and decided to have my thief like that.
And then a year later ferocity hit, my thief’s now unplayable with his current spec- I’ve noticed there is some thieves with a new spec (For WvW be it) with short bow and S/D.
It’s quite strong but i have no idea what spec they run- it can’t be the standard TPvP S/D spec as that is not viable for WvW at all.
I don’t have the money to regear more than once so i can’t experiment with that therefore my question is; What is the strongest spec for thief playing alone right now in WvW?
Thank you in advance :’)
Well.. my staff ele can substain permanent burst which kills my player target in 1-2 sec- in an aoe- (Allow’s me to actually win a 1v10 xD)
Tinfoil hats!
i’d want extremly hard, hardcore solo content that’s greatly profitable.
Although it would be neat, it would’t work for gw2- too exploitable. the game ain’t build with an hanglider in mind- play archeage if you want hanglider-
Question is; What circle is trahearne then? He was born first, but then one of the luminaries are lying. Hmm
“Googles” i see what you did there.
1.
Information is stored in the dream to prepare new sylvari for the coming world.
2.
Yes, they talk about it a lot
3.
He’s the first of the firstborn- hence making him a “prince” as you describe it.
4.
It’s his wild hunt to cure orr
5.
Unknown.
6.
The pale tree didn’t create it- the dream did, and it has no conciousness it self
7.
because the name is simmilar dosn’t mean it has the same properties. and techinically all weapons can be used against the creator of it.
THIEF
Strength
Frequent burst, mobility and active defence (lifesteal, blocks, heals etc
Weakness
Bad Passive defense (Armor, health, PASSIVE healing), hard to play,
Thief is to reliant at shadow arts to survive

A DPS warrior is more tanky than a DPS guard, a tank guard is more tanky than a tank warrior
it was steven waller not mike
thanks, but i don’t care about damage. i only want tankiness :P
it’s for WvW just running around for fun sake.
Hello guys, i just hit 80 with my human guardian. But i need a build.
So to the question:
What is the tankiest most unkillable selfish bunker guardian buld? (i only play alone)
shortbow for clearing 3+ man groups and D/D for 3 people or less
clusterbomb can hit 5 people, D/D has the highest single target damage
no, it is still not viable if a guy who could do 1v7 loses more than 50% of duels

Toughts?
I like it. It reminds me of some of the Guild Wars Factions armors.
That was intentional :.)
Hello guys, i saw the new gemstore outfit. the chest was love in first sight. Although… the rest of the armor was not that intresting. So i thought, hey i think this could look cool of i did some redesign… therefore i did.
this took me 20 minutes in PAINT and i am a 13 year old boy.
Thoughts?
(Non-trench coat for medium, yey!)
edit: I don’t mind criticm, so just feel free to comment freely as long as you’re constructive
(edited by Big Tower.5423)
if anet made the chestpiece a standalone chestpiece i would be blessed.
So, you used to like being a one-shot thief? you think that was fair? I’ll not lost my time in a discussion with you. Ppl breaks a profession by creating “Builds” unfair, (1-shot in pvp while in hide? – even worse on wxw).
While you cry about your strong profession being nerfed (Once), rangers keep being one of the worst classes since very being of the game. (As myself, I main a ele.)
i was a 2 backstab shot thief, not the signet thief
thieves were, although condi is only viable for roaming right now
Guild wars 2 story, the life of a thief
Hello guys! My name is Big Tower.5423 and i am a D/D thief from the EU serer Far shiverpeaks. I’ve played the game since 2-months after launch. i’ve always been a exclusive PvP player (WvW/TPVP) and after i hit 80 after about 1-2 weeks i eventually learned of the art known as roaming. i was at first just capable of 1v1, then 1v2, 1v3 and at last 1v7. i eventually got my self an ascended amulet, and 2 rings. after about a half year…. Life was going well and i had fun
i now had 3500 hours on my thief and with the account bound WXP coming. I was extremly excited applied fortitude. so i managed to scrap up my money to buy my self a exotic berserker set. AND THEN the patch hit, my thief was left useless
The 1v7 needed a nerf, i admit that. Although you should tone stuff down, not break it! my thief went from 7-11 k backstabs to 3-5 k backstabs. i lost 42% critical damage! this pretty much renders the D/D playstyle useless 120 % -> 78%…. i am now winning less than 1/4 of my duels, 1/4!
3500 hours, right out of the window
i did ofcourse realise i had to “Adapt” as to the other constant previous nerfs, but no. i couldn’t just tweak my build, D/D batman build is no longer viable AT ALL. we thieves do have P/D, but…. i were never that rich though, as a pvp player. i usually have 5-6 g in my wallet and the highest i’ve ever had is 40. with the recent purchase i had: 0 g, 26 silver. Yey, imma just get all my armor all over again. its just half year of an effort…. i’ve never had a single ascended weapon either…. especialy with me having put all my income for several months into leveling my weaponsmith now to 415…. Oh, you need hunsman? Screw you! i felt when i had to stop making my daggers and rather work on a pistol… altough i had a spare sword…. so i tried to play S/D… well that went to hell…
I feel EXTREMLY cheated out, as a PvP player, my 3500 hours right out of the window.
I don’t want to drag my self trough PvE content to be viable in WvW! "
i thought you said, play the game the way you want.
if you needed to nerf critdamage for PvE, why dont just add a 30% critdmg buff in WvW?
Thank you for your attention, have a nice day further guys!
Edit 1:
D/D thieves got higher hit that others as we rely on crit-dmg, i had 3000 attack but, 120% cridmg, also i used hidden killer to get those crits, we got hit way harder than others. most others lost about 15% damage in WvW, i lost 42% as i rely heavily on critdmg
Direct damage VS condi damage is out of the tabel!
Edit 2:
other roamers got hit hard as well,, but not as hard as thief. Anet promotes zerging and deranks roaming. if you want to roam you have to go condi

Warrior, they’re the strongest class in all 3 gamemodes. LITTERALY (i have an warrior as an alt)
i loved the patch
I didn’t find any other treads about this topic, That_Shaman over on the gw2 subreddit 11 days ago posted a new version of the whole planet tyria map, i added the picture below and here’s a link to the tread
Thoughts on this?

I have 2400 of my 4400 hours over the last 500 days dumped at thief, but now he’s shelved due to lack of a viable build anymore…. freaking 42 % less damage
Hello guys! I looked at the living story and saw as many others that Mordemoth is next. and then one of my first thoughts was: “Waait…. Elder dragon in living story?!” “Won’t most of the future community miss out in it?” and then the AHA moment came. I wrote the text down below, while i was at it i came at some of the ideas to the story it self. The technical part is the most important one.
stone HEARTH not heart.
ele has best burst. unavoidable best burst.
Unavoidable is heavily exaggerated. Ever heard of a stunbreaker??
If you want 8v8 zergfest go play WvW.
8v8 is hardly a zergfest
If I understand this rambling right, you say that you transmuted both your spinal blade back item and Dusk and you noticed that spinal blades can’t be used in the mystic forge once transmuted. That is indeed correct. Once that particular back item is transmuted you can’t upgrade it further.
However, what does that have to do with Dusk? You can’t transmute a weapon on a back item or vica versa.
If you transmuted another weapon as a skin over your Dusk then do not fret because the legendary stats are still there and both the Dusk skin and the transmuted item skin is in your wardrobe now. Everything you equip even once gets unlocked automatically in your wardrobe so you can apply the skin for a fee of one transmutation charge. The skin itself is unlimited. If you have a bazillion charges, you can transmute it a bazillion times.
If you transmuted Dusk as a skin on another weapon then you still have both skins unlocked but you lost the legendary stats. With no transmutation splitters, your best course of action is indeed contacting support. Although I wouldn’t put too much faith into that as the issue is not gem purchase related.
Dusk is a precusor.
Thief are left useless this patch, i personally lost 42% damage rendering my thief completly obsolete. Shelved my thief and rerolled engi.
what they should do is to disable hard ressing in combat and have a max of 2 people rezzing people in downed state. Zerker staff ele zerg killer says hi.
100 % critchance (hidden killer) 42% less critdamage… had 120 % now i am down at 78..
i got a 42% reduction…..
i lost 42 critical damage.
REASONS YOU DON’T LIKE THE NEW PATCH
Hello guys…. this is a topic about what you didn’t like with the patch and proposed solutions. Just post your top 2 issues and a fix for it. Then we’l have many pages of feedback to the devs! Remember to avoid personal insults try your best to be construvtive. IL go ahead and post mine:
1. FEROCITY
With the new patch my thief is rendered useless. He is a D/D direct damage stealth thief. you know the kind: 3000 attack, 16 k hp and 120% critdmg (prepatch) now i am brought down to 228 % ferocity which is with old critical damage 78 % critdmg that effectively means 42 % less damage. This is alright in PvE but it renders WvW roaming direct damage builds useless.
solution:
There is one simply solution. add a 35 % critdamage buff in WvWvW.
FORCING PVE DOWN PVP’ERS THROATS
I really desire the new traits for my warrior alt and ele alt. i knew i didnt want to go around in pve and grab it so i went to the vendor to buy it. And there i saw it it required freaking 20 skillpoints… Therefore i have to go to PvE anyhow…
Solution:
Just simply remove skill point requirement and increase the gold cost slightly.
I downloaded the patch and came in understanding nothing. therefore i have sevveral questions:
1. Do i have to have same cosmetic look in PVP and pve?
2. where is my 5 extra free transmutation charges?
3. most other stuff XD
4. why do they force PvE down our throats to get new traitpoints?

i soloed orr map completion with little to no issues. I am Valkyrie/zerker build.

Elementalist and Engineer is the only classes that function without melee.
If you’re pure range you have to have loads of AOE and CC unless you’re gonna get eaten by high mobility dps specs. (Thief says hi :P)
Thief:
WvWvW: D/D or D/P
PVE: D/D or S/P
SPVP: S/P and S/D
I think you’re disclaiming to much in every spot. Anet wont ban you even if you do stuff like void jumping and or glitching. they see if a place will give you a gameplay advantage or not. :P
Thief: Pistol/Pistol
Elementalist: Focus
Warrior: Offhand axe
Ranger: Longbow
necromancer: Axe/dagger
Guardian: Scepter/shield
Mesmer: Offhand sword
Engineer: Rifle
