Guild Wars 2

the answer is simple:
DON’T USE BOONS !!!
problem solved.

programmers are amateur, and are creating memory leaks (see attachment)
some ppl complained gw2.exe was taking 4gb of ram
luclky i have 8gb, so i can hold 1h+ without a crash

i get crash after standing still and doing NOTHING XD
i think there is a memory leak :P and amateur programmers

we want more nerfs please, we can take it like real mens !

the -50% vuln time on the dungeon bosses combined with 3 ini, makes the body shot uselss
i don’t see a valid reason to use it, really…

randomfightfan.4091:

Now get a good player and thief will be one of the better classes in most situations.

i don’t think the non-thief player base agrees with that…
make a poll…oh wait….this forum can’t

Stop saying warriors out-DPS thieves, it’s not true. We have the strongest single target DPS in the game. It is your fault if you are not able to reach it.

Why should we tank? why should anyone tank, use your skills and your brain. We can dodge everything, so what is better: healing 20k dmg or completely evade it?

At least thieves can support very well since damage is the best support… btw we have smoke screen and black powder and signet of agility if you don’t use them its your fault

check this out https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/thief/Thieves-suck-in-PvE

why do all groups in cof elite only run 4 warriors 1 mesmer? why not 4 thieves 1 mesmer? plz answer this

i would also like to know the answer .

They do? From my experience it doesn’t feel like that is true and groups doing speed runs will use zerker warriors over thieves.

so true
zerker warrior > anything else

that is the question i like for a-net to answer
WHERE we fit in a team ?!? what is our job ?
just dodging around 1 more time than the other classes if we spec for it ?? is this all the thief is best at ?
i am not talking about wvw…

For a smooth run, a good thief is nice to have, but at least one warrior ist almost a must.

the perfect party is: 2xguardian,2xwarriors,mesmer(10s quickness for everyone, no penalty ftw)

ANY combination without 2 of the 3 classes mentioned will have LESS good results

This is:

• Offtopic
• Wrong
• Terrible terrible wrong….

The perfect team setup depends on the content you want to use this team for.

then explain to me einstein why i get kicked BECAUSE i am a thief
(from ppl that i don’t know, and they don’t know me)
how do you think i feel when i get the boot even before we start the dungeon?

oh and if a class has GREAT performance in wvw OR pvp, doesn’t mean it’s also the same in pve ! (see warrior, we are in reversed situation)

TheGuy.3568:

Now in PvE non of this matters and here we have one of the squishiest least useful classes to any team. Outside picking up members who fail at dungeon mechanics lest they be in an aoe then the thief cant do kitten. Sustained isn’t all that great and it is out shined by warrior and guardian.

THIS +
best dps:warrior
best support: guardian
best condition:necromancer
best clown: thief

don’t post your builds and brag about it man,
you risk to get it nerfed the next patch that comes !

if that’s what it takes to stop the nerf streak, i am all for it !
i am kinnda sick to change my playstyle every month or so, just because most players use the same build and because of that, it’s considered OP

i am even afraid to post my latest builds on the forum or show them to my friends…

clueless OR this: http://dagobah.net/flash/successful_troll_2.swf
it’s the only one DECENT for pve,
gtfo out of our forum !

i would ban you all for trolling an already weak pve class

JJBigs.8456:

ahh thats the best when im in a pug and i hear in team chat “look at all those bleeds” sooo much bleeding

well, the problem is the 25 bleed stack limit, so if 3 of you have the same spec, dps is greatly reduced…

and the answer to my question still remains:

the farming party means 4warr+mesmer or the ability to stay more than 1h+ ?

do i really really need to make an warrior/mesmer for pve !??!
any comments from a-net on this problem ?

Zikory.6871:

TBH the trap is kitten. But I’m not going to complain about it because its been a blast trolling thieves.

we are being trolled !!! isn’t this against the rules ???

ski.4927:

Two things I want to touch on really quick.

As a WvW roamer, regardless of what class I play, I will always (YES ALWAYS) have a giant stack of these in my bag and I will use one EVERY time I come across a thief that is not leveld-up. Every time. Period. The cost is negated by the fact that I have an excess of the currencies required and nothing to spend them on.

The 2nd thing I wanted to touch on is a question I had about these traps. So, as a thief, I trigger one and my class mechanic is taken away for 30 seconds. Oh boy. That sounds painful!

-So, when a Ranger triggers one, his pet goes away for 30 seconds, right?
-So, when a Mesmer triggers one, his ability to summon clones and phantasms goes away for 30 seconds, right?
-So, when a Warrior triggers one, his burst skills go away for 30 seconds, right?
-So, when an Elementalist triggers one, his attunement swapping goes away for 30 seconds, right?

You get the drift…..

i think they wanted to kill the wvw thieves with these traps, maybe they succeeded ?

a-net does not want more thief users, that’s why they nerf it so much

new nerf:
malice signet receives 1 second CD on the passive healing

there is one, but it seems too OP, and will be nerfed soon if it goes public :/
just experiment

the main problem with condition builds is that 25 bleed stack limit for pve
and some classes can do it much better, as stated.

simple, the a-net morons fail to understand this:
the venom share range is TOO SMALL !
300units is crap
that’s why venom builds will NEVER be on par with raw damage
not with random pug parties anyway…

I was following the commander, suddenly some tornadoes pop, and we loose all supplies…
is this a new cheat ?

actually it was nerfed for 15+ patches in a row, and the devs and whiners are still NOT happy :/

me gusta !!! …. troll land, here i come ! XD

can you actually land a backstab if you can’t stealth ???

i think they are glad if 75% of wvw thieves quit
i for one, don’t cry for them, maybe the pve version can finally get some buffs?

can we backstab people while the revealed is on ? or sneak attack ?

actually, i want more range on the venom aura so i can share properly, the rest is golden

traps suck even with 10sec CD for pve, they need some aoe…

headshot to prevent the trap casting or tactical strike ?
or any daze/stun/interrupt ???

Please drop here a line if this was finally a GOOD patch for you.

i am happy, since i play a pve thief

we want instant cast and lower the karma and the badges !

1. max power imo, conditions are easly removed
2. malice if you daggerstorm a lot in their zerg, else his

StarNightz.8496:

Well is there a build that work in both pve and wvw?

p/d – pve no / wvw yes
d/p – pve 3/4, bad at boss / wvw yes
d/d – pve 3/4, bad vs groups / wvw yes
shortbow – pve yes vs groups / wvw no (see the last nerf)
p/p – yes – single target only / wvw 1/4
s/d – pve 3/4, vs groups is 1/2 / wvw yes
s/p – pve yes / wvw 1/2

PearlGore.7419:

When you fart do it in Stealth next to someone you hate.

i get the revealed debuff if i do that

Alex.6940:

People often do speed runs of cof1; surviving the path isn’t usually considered to be an issue and no one should go down in a decent group.

Zerker warriors are more effective because they do more damage and can finish the path more quickly.

not to mention the insane dps they have, especially with time warp…

also to mention it aims for the genital organs
ahahaha (lower torso)
sometimes at the feet too, lol

i am not glad i made a thief ….
you never know what they will nerf next.
maybe the healing is too OP now ?

Nahan.5043:

Playing another class i guess is better than this
.. Full dps build thief or nothing thats the spirit.
Blame anet for everything else is useless
I mean overall thief is kitten in his current situation so play another class yeah thats it!

+1

1. Reduce base damage
+
5. Make infiltrator strike cost 4 initiative instead of 3
+
7. Reduce heartseeker damage by 25%
+
8. Reduce backstab damage by 25%
+
9. Reduce sword damage by 50%
+
10. Make pistol whip have even longer cast time and reduce damage by 25%
+
11. Call the next nerf a buff

can we has your HP pool as a trade off ??

a better idea is to leave footprints OR be semi-transparent

i think that guy should be banned forever because of him we are so bad now in pve
so many www trolls ruined us

the bundle is when you hold the www arrowcarts in your hands
you do 10% more direct damage if you have this trait (not the condition part)

i don’t think anyone cares at this point, i guess i need to start grinding for the warrior…

my opinion for PVE:
1.delete thief
2.create warrior (highest hp pool, best armor, banners with double buffs, best dps etc.)
3.enjoy the most OP class

for wvw you can use d/p or p/d as most trolls.

i wish 3 thieves and 2 rangers could do that….

it’s over 90 thousaaaanddddd !!!! @#$%$%&^(&*
my backstab does 7k on crit
