my main is thief both playing s/d acro and d/p trickery build in spvp & tpvp so i think anet just wants us to play P/D or P/P Unload Pew Pew Pew! i tried this same build before —-> http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fZAQRAqY4KlsMt7JmOh/pJgJEu65d6zt1ORjAA-TpgPgAA7PYWGAA
ye its pretty effective but panic strike’s CD is too long 30secs… well i think the reduced cooldown of this is really good for this celestial or condi trinks!

does the warrior’s GS f1 burst damage depends on level of adrenaline? for example 1st bar adrenaline does 700 damage. 2nd bar 1,400 damage 3rd bar is 2.1k ?
ya Jumper X build i also using that build before almost a year ago

thief community is just awesome!
Bump!What does that say about you m8? Think about it….
Also, why “bump” when it was near the top of the page already?
i mean BURP drunk
thief community is just awesome!
Bump!
that CnD @ 4:22 i dunno if that is intentional or not but that was really great CnD land and really nice gameplay footage 9/10
and as a non SA D/P Thief (very lack of condi removals) u know how hard fighting a condi necro with all wells casted near him so let the rock dog step on it
and rock dog a bit tanky has more hp than summoned parrot rune of privateer
i luv using ogre rune on my d/p trickery… sometimes rune of scholar is better… for example while fighting a staff necro, phantasm mesmer or turret engie ogre rune is better i think cuz summoned rock dog will just step on necro’s well same to mesmers if i go invi… illusions will just goin to attack rock dog and same to turrets as well

PVE just go S/P spam Pistol Whip any build will work for as long as u have “executioner” trait and shortbow! and use signet of malice not only good for single target but AOE
When a engi runs in and uses his supply crate when you have the point.
Assuming you are not using S/P:
- Dodge CC
- Steal gunk and throw it in the middle of the point
- Use shortbow to kill the turrets, and #3 to evade
- When turrets are gone: kill engi
Its no where near that easy the thief will also be taking damage from turrets. Even vsing a average turret engi gonna take a fair bit of time should be able to kill him at all. As other have said go else where leave him on the point. Go outnumber his team mates and after killing them bring a friend and kill turret engi.
Well this is what I’m doing normally, as there is not much else to do. Besides, when you take down his supply drop. You kind of ruined his elite. Most engi’s stay at the point with their turrets anyway, so if you manage to stay at max range. You can easily dodge all cc’s
the problem is Fortified turrets trait has surrounded reflective shield when created + self repairing turret trait
when the engies run turret+reflect projectile turrets theres 0% chance of winning as a thief lets say same skill level cuz even if u go s/d d/p or d/d melees or shortbow aoes everything won’t work unless you’ve waited for 1 min running around until his elite turrets are gone then go for a kill!
No Shadow Arts Trait were use in this game play vid

How about this for the lady assassins?
ya that armor looks really good for female ACR thief but ACR trademark colors are red, white and leather like colors
Altaïr for best
ponyassassin (see attachment).
old ACR armor skin! looks great
This looks cool!
Care to share the armour pieces (and dyes) Coloxeus?
(I can’t recognize the boots and the shoulders!)
Shoulder is —>> http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Buccaneer_armor
and medium ascended boots
no it is not a breakstun but u ckittene it while stunned/ fear
if a really good or experienced D/P thief goes “hotjoin” sPvP hes probably has the most advantage cuz most ppl (not all) in hotjoins are clueless how to counter d/p so here i will gonna show u top NA thief Caed vs Anas Tarcis (one of the best warrs in NA)
or “assassin’s creed wannabes”
yo lets make a guild “assassin;s creed brotherhood”
Good Job!! and u can also do pre-cast backstab+ steal does really high burst damage + even if the foe has protection,stability it will all be remove before your backstab hit due to bountiful theft and will guarantee high critical hit chance (fury,might,swiftness on steal)
like this gameplay but different build 6/6/0/0/2 ’Revealed Training"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vBjdMg7jztA
2/0/0/6/6 S/D+SB does everything against different classes but it also has a counter. . like a really good D/P 2/6/0/0/6 thieves and a zerker shatter mez when they catch u by surprise and also turret engies are pain in the kitten if they used their elite+ utility turrets u will probably lose cap point and forcing yourself to move away and switched to shortbow Cluster bombing+poison field his territory
What colors were used for it? it’s pretty cool.
please tell us!!!!!!!!!!
Blue Sky!!
just wondering why did anet include this in Solo Que ONLY but not in Team Que? this map is just really made for engies
ya then run 30 shadow arts really viable for trolling
I recommend SweetFX to liven up the screen even when playing at the lowest setting. I’ve been using it in WvW and guild raids and my screen looks really decent!
9/10 the bifrost/incin + lightings are awesome i really luv your screen shots but nothing special on your armor set iv seen many flamekissed light armor same dyed as u did so i gave it 9/10!
and also me! Coloxus Goes Ele!
I also main a Thief and have been playing Ele frequently lately. One thing I noticed is that you don’t make good use of Signet of Restoration when kiting. You should continue to attack as you will restore health.
I had this issue myself to begin with, I think it comes from playing Thief so long. Where you don’t want to break stealth by hitting anything.
you’re absolutely correct! thats prolly main issue of playing alot of thief then going Ele LOL still now i still forgetting to use #1 auto attack while @ low hp and running away or kiting
Yeah some might stacking issues. Also I noticed a lot of wasteful dodges in the beginning along with wasteful use of armor of earth and actually…lack of using cleansing fire. Not to mention the premature use of air number 3 (shocking aura). Sometimes you use it in inappropriate situations. Save those for outnumbered fights or thieves or classes that relies on melee. You tend to use it like 5-10 seconds before entering the actual fight itself. And remember…all skills heals you. So fire 2 will heal you too, so use it more.
yea. sometimes im using 2 trait on air for zephyrs boon. thought using it to gain fury then entering a fight and expecting for my fire to crit and burst hard! but i guess thats a terrible idea now lol
and me so stupid didn’t even know that 4th skill Earth quake and that dodge roll @ end while earth attuned was a blast finisher!
ya figuring that out! fire field > 4th skill earth or dodge inside of fire field while earth attuned! can get 21 – 23 max might stacks during long team fights awesome!
i mainly play thief but i wanted to try eles and i think playing d/d ele is very fun 2 play lots of action just like thief but this d/d ele build is harder to kill and has lots of heal and condi removals!
i have played this ele only for 40+ hours (Thief 2.1k+ hours) i want to improve more so any tips and suggestions is appreciated ! ! thnx!
plz do watch in HD:

And if a player is downed for the 2nd time = instant dead
RA or TA deathmatch mode BUT no double profession in each team you guys shud test 3v3 or 5v5 and which do u think is better and easier to watch and make a map for deathmatch mode balance for melees and range classes (pls no to skyhammer thing)
(edited by Coloxeus.3480)
as a D/P trickery thief
-meditation burst guardian
-rabid condi turret build engies (experimental turret trait+supply crate elite skill)
-MM condi staff necros
-soldier or celestial D/D eles
- Easiest target to pick mesmers
-and in team fights a really good D/P trickery burst thief has an immense Fear factor
S/D build
-rabid condi turret build engies (experimental turret trait+supply crate elite skill)
-PU mesmers
-D/P thieves
-P/D hybrid condi thieves
- a good or lucky hambow warr with good timing to counter most of your evades
- Easy opponent necro, elementalist and guardian (but sometimes zerker GS Sword/focus guardian is a pain in the kitten just avoid their burst rotation)
(edited by Coloxeus.3480)
and its hard to watch fast forward with 4 screens!!
usual decap engi build but i know 2v1 3v1 holding points needs lot of effort and skills to survive! GJ
ya like in 5v5 dota-like games heroes of newerth type /concede (needs 4 votes) then your team will instant lose cuz prolly they know that their team has no chance of winning
for me easiest is Mez and hardest is another very skilled d/p burst thief is always a threat and turret build engies
im using air/fire sigil for D/P
Can I ask you which of the 3 builds posted do you prefer?
i prefer
2/0/0/6/6 evasive more survivability but weaker and lesser crit chance % and 3k ish – 3.8k ish larcenous strike dmg to medium 1,980 armor (sometimes can go up to 4.2k when u have like 15 stacks of might)
BTW, Coloxeus do you spend much time in spvp now days? I’ve only seen you a few times when I’ve been playing.
yea i always playing after i got home from work my usual playing time starts between 8:am – 10:am server time and i dont do pve and WvW anymore just spvp tpvp
By using transformation tonics. The ‘cancel tonic’ skill is the same as healing skill and thus will trigger the rune effect. On the side note, when you go in-and-out of tonic form you will also proc on-swap sigils if they’re off cd. I wouldn’t get used to it, cause several people were reporting it already and it most likely will get fixed.
correct! was using unlimited tonic got from Black lion chest then while even @ combat i can transform to fur animal then press healing skill!
