How more i play thief how more i start to hate our melee set up. Short bow seems to be best.
i have 120% crit damage and i deal 25k burst.
anet did that for lag solution probably
s/d 10/10/30/20 life steal build to op.
That nerf is nothing i tough they nerf infinent stealth nope they din’t.
That nerf >:). Is nothing to worry about in wvsw.
The nerfs won’t be that hard also i respec to lifesteal build.
I have engie thief can’t kill engie.. ever. AThere is a trait that screw up thieves a lot called protection when got crit.
I was thinking this was about fractale but it seems you talk about cof. Cof will be nerved rest assured.
Guys i go 5 man thief party all venom share. Now lets talk about basilicum venom and how broken it is on any boss. You team will perma stun that mofo :P
except for venom share is a terrible build since it sacrifices TONS of dps just so everyone in a what? 1 inch range from you (maybe 1 person) gets venoms?Unless you got everyone organized and in vent, but that brings us to my point that PvE is just too easy and these “support” builds don’t matter because the only difference you are making is that boss fights now take 15 seconds longer because your dps is low. besides basilisk most are awful, shortbow poison fields pretty much do it way better.
Tons dps sacrifice hahaha. You sacrifice 0 dps because with so many venom sharing you will have 25 stacks of might… Not to mention stun lock boss for 25 sec. You still run full zerker gear.
only thing that I’m not looking forward to is the mug nerf… oh well, guess I’ll have to adapt…
Mug only gives like 4k burst they maybe nerf it to 2k but you still will at least deal 20k burst in couple of sec no that bad.
Venom share build is op when will you ever learn that :P

Here comes the funny part thief can burst only glass canon. Thief can never kill a decent guardian 1 vs 1 no matter how much damage you do. Engie will laugh if we try attack em they have protection if you crit 7 sec block. More condi remover then you ever will have.
After those nerfs i say r.i.p thief and play my lv 80 engie. 25 might stacks ftw.
Short bow is probably never was destined as ranged weapon more as close mid range aeo weapon.
I prefer run 0/0/30/20/20 healing thief. For the fact that i can stay in entere enemy and drop caltrops to imitate the. This build is not for killing exept if you go p/d. Thies build is for stomping downed enemy’s in chaotic battle and healing your allies. Its pretty fun has some feeling like been a spy.
If you go in wvsw glass canon thief understand that d/d is only good for 1 target only 1! If there are 2 you will die. If they are not stupid that is. The best ting about full glass canon is shotbow with sigil of fire that ting hurts it really does in team fights :P
Op add boons to your list thief suck on lack of boons i hate it.
If that happens i go tank thief and just do completely nothing.
Well having 20k hp as thief nothing can happen to me healing in stealth for 700 per sec.
Pve is good pvp wise meh
Op i think your brain needs to be nerfed. The only part that i find op on mesmer is the amount of stuns/daze they have. Aeo weapons with fire sigil kills all the clones.
I play thief from close beta. I enjoy my thief can burst every 40 sec for 20k if executed well. After that i feel useless. I say that because thief lack of buffs comparer to my lv 80 engie that has perma swiftness and 25 might stacks rage and like 7 sec of protection every burst on me. I will say heavy burst is nothing comparer to boons. Thief is the only class who actaly has no real way to access a lot of boons.
3 weeks ago had in night 2 exotic in wvsw :P
I would pay 3000g Past that not worth it.
Engenier, thief, mesmer, ranger have stealth already.
Engie utility elixer s.
Mesmer torch skill.
Thief everything is stealth.
Ranger 1 of the pets can find ectoplasm for all buffs 5 sec or feathers for stealth.
Try elementalist they can do anything
Yep kitten happens
I love it lol.
Superior sigil of rage is also an option it deals decent dps when triggers.
Try elementalist they have everything.
I prefer necro or mage for condition damage just saying.
Let’s talk about lv 40 fractale you can’t get hit by boss there because you will insta die. In other words you are better of with dodgin and vigor buff and full class canon build then tank. Also thief is really not that great as a tank compere to guardian/engineer.
Glass cannon. Berseker 30/30/0/0/10 d/d short bow. Insta kill glass canons. Can’t kill bunkers in 1 go but that is why you use shortbow with haste and destroy them.
Thief because i will backstab mug stab insta kill him from stealth with venom/power signet active.
Sigil of rage is under underestimated :P. Sigil of fire is best one.
Shortbow for aeo. Second weapon of choice for me was s/p around lv 60. Past that i started using d/d.
1 vs 1 situation blind powder finish :P
Sigil of fire the best dps sigil in game if you hit more then 1 taget in aeo. I personaly use on my duel daggers sigil of rage for fun part and sigil of fire for dps. With rare gear i hit for 8k on backstab and 9 k on sigil proc. Shortbow with sigil of fire and haste is aeo damage fest in wvsw :P
I main thief myself we bring nothing more then dps. We can’t tank as guardians or support as elemental. We are raw dps class with high mobility.
