Thief – Raiden Hayabusa
Thief – Gouki Kurokawa
that was well done. It’s those kind of videos that makes me want to try to master D/D again.
@ 7’37 you used Shadowstep + CD. that was sexy man, cause I mainly use this utility to run away.
GG
Roll for Initiaves is that one skill I have yet to try. I think this skill is too specific for a good, well rounded use. Signet of infiltration would be a better option.
This build sounds promising thought.
yishis. this guy is a monster.
I main thief and I strongly suggest not doing this. We don’t need any more S/D thieves.. It’s near perma evade is already OP as is. If you want to talk about buffs though for thieves, change Death Blossom on Dagger so D/D is actually viable in PvP. That would be a lot more beneficial to the class than buffing sword.
I agree with him.
Let us focus on solving issues of weak/unreliable weapons (thinking D/D, P/P) than improving a weapon that is not bad at all.
Don’t get your hopes up boys. Caithe is DESTINY’s EDGE. she is a legendary thief, it is only naturaly that her skills are OP and absolutely amazing.
We are just petty thieves, think of us as Alladin. lolol
personally, i love initiative, it describes the thief perfectly (someone who makes critical decisions at crucial times). I like the management of it and so, CD for me a kind of pain.
I definitely would not mind that Second Shadow as an elite, that would render all the other elites skills unused.
I think you need to have some priority straight.
If I am about to jump into a fight, let it be WvW or PvP (it’s the same), the following must die absolutely, in that order.
- Thief
-Mesmer
- Ranger
-Necro
- Engineers
- Warrior
- Guardian
This does not mean, guardian is the least dangerous of all the classes, but one thing is for sure : letting the thief live is more threatning to your survival than letting any other classes live.
We are our worst ennemies.
I was trying to take my thief’s picture but as you can see in the first shot, he did not want me to. I asked him for just one and the second pic was all that he would give me. I took the third one when he wasn’t looking. He caught me and pulled out his guns. I thought it was a good idea to stop. Anyway, here they are…
Looks like Gabrielle Tosh. GG
I guess it doesn’t matter that much. Or rather, it should not matter.
I mean, i have seen some pretty weird keybinds from pro gamers.
My keybinds:
F= steal
e=n4
x=n5
c=n6
mouse button= n7
r= n8
q=n9
Elite=shift v,
make target= shiftt x
v = dodgeroll
^ = change weapon
alt = cancel cast
G = stomp/rezz
i guess we do what’s comfy and that’s it.
Hey not much feedback but in the entire video you used smoke screen only once and I think it was random click on it
. If you don’t like it why don’t you switch it with something that you will use. Signet maybe or blinding powder.
^^ he’s right you know.
I noticed that too.
Overall it’s not bad at all mate. I wish there were more full fights because a lot of the scene switching that you do, already start when the guy is at 75% or lower if you know what I mean. GG man.
Do you keep your smoke screen for rangers or something? or as an extra stealth mean?
So much none sense from this uploader, it makes me sad. My first question to you is “do you even thief bro?” because CLEARLY, if you did play it for 5 minutes, you would at least know that Stealing CAN be blocked and dodged.
- what’s the name of the class again? Thief? what do thieves do? Steal. That’s the only thing we do, that’s what we are good at. Nerfing Steal is like nerfing the number of illusions a mesmer can have, or nerfing the Life Force from Necro. it’s just outrageous, and what you are suggesting is pretty much killing the class.
- Your proposal for a melee Steal: … and what about the medium armor and all the squishiness? You want me to chase you all the way and hope you’ll let me look into your pockets or something? ( it’s already annoying to chase and backstab btw)
- your opinion on realism: Let me tell you about realism. Stealing should be fast, unexpected, annoying, painful,stressful. So obviously, you ‘ll never be prepared for it. If you get Mugged IRL I am sure you’ll feel all those things i mentioned above.
- did I just read " Slower teleport" ? because that does not even make any sense. Unless you meant “running”. it’s the same logic as above. You want thieves to reach into your pockets SLOWLY so you can tap their hands. “ey. back off buddy!”
Here is a quick definition from wiki " transfer of matter or energy from one point to another WITHOUT traversing the physical space between them." come on bro.
I mean Thieves spend 6 points into Trickery JUST for a 1 second interupt, and you think it should be nerfed.
obvious troll is obvious. Although I am being trolled, i had to answer to this guy.
I am so glad I am play thief. I know that someone somewhere, is frustrated because he can’t handle dem ninja skills.
applies basilik venom
well done! this fight with the ele that summoned the air elemental was real. GJ on your patience and GG on the music.

q.q why does no one like mah weapon set. I crai eretiem
I was actually about to share this video to give them an example.
GG btw mate.
Keybinding is super important to run sexy combos such as Infiltrator’s Signet + Cloack & Dagger smoothly. As thieves, we know how painful it is to miss those moves because of a uncomfortable bind.
I was curious what my fellow thieves use as their keybinds! thanks you for sharing.
I have a gaming mouse, so i use to alleviate the problem a little.
well done. really well done. I cannot wait to get myself a new computer so i can do nice videos like this.
And your build …
2/5/0/1/6 ?
I’m sooo bad at teef
ps who’s better OP or this Jesse dood. I needs halp on teef
Better isn’t a answer then can be given :p there is no best thief imo, on d/d i think Night Blade is by far miles better, i haven’t played the spec in months. S/D i would say amons better, D/P or P/D (to many thieves to name) and well i play s/p so i die a lot lol
Every Thief weapons are great, but after playing countless times as a D/P , I think the most skillful thieves I have played against were S/D ones. but then that’s just my opinion.
Also i am so glad Uploader didn’t run the usual 26006 like everybody, even in shadow traits she still managed to rek havoc. Don’t follow the flow, do what pleases you.
I refuse to believe this has Shadow Art. I refuse to believe this has Shadow Art. I refuse to believe this has Shadow Art. I refuse to believe this has Shadow Art.
kitten brah. GG
thanks for the help.
i finally found it.South of Kessex. too bad they just give 1 in kessex :/
Yeah i still cannot find any. I found Toxic Stalks, and Toxic wurms but none of them drop any. :/ Or is the drop rate that low ? Could anyone be give me a specific location to farm ?
Sorry for being a pain in the kitten .
Where can i find them ?? I have been looking all over the net. they are all outdated by about a year or so.
\ thus I have no intentions of playing P/D thief.
applaud
you make a lot of mistake and not too sure what is going yet ? 2/0/6/0/6 for sustains.
you want to hurt people ? 2/6/0/0/6
you only care about blood? 5/6/0/0/3
kitten @ 3’16. i put it on replay 3 or 4 times.
hahah I can’t believe my rock dog died! Vick would be disappointed…[/quote]
Actually i meant 3’31. THIS was worth a 3-4 times replay. but, is this even viable for wvw? no condi cleaning, no sustains. 1 mistake = death. because i see the only time you go in WvW you are running S/D.
That video looks so smooth. What’s the specs on your rig?
Really? I was actually upset about the quality of the render >.>
Specs are:
i5 4670k oc’d to 4.0ghz with a coolermaster hyper 212
Coolermaster Case
Corsair 550w power supply
16gig of Kingston ddr4 ram (two 8s)
Sapphire Radeon 7990 ddr5 gfx card
Kingston 240g SSD and two 1 tera hds, got lucky with a newegg coupon and got a buy one get one free 1tb hd![]()
Theron gaming mouse with some cheap mechanical kbI was actually thinking about recording uncompressed to get better quality, but I heard youtube scales it down anyway?
How much did it this whole cost? How old is it? and how long can it last?
so this means 2/6/0/0/6 is ONLY for S/D
kitten @ 3’16. i put it on replay 3 or 4 times.
Hello guys, this is my first post. I am running this D/P build 2/0/6/0/6 for survival and sustenance. This is about WvW and PvP
However i heard everybody is doing 2/6/0/0/6 and i am just wondering how get rid of your conditions, or even heal?
I met 2 thieves (one D/P, the other S/D) in WvW that destroyed my squad of 7. :/
Yes we were noobs, but still, they earned my respect.
Please don’t stay " I use steal to heal" cause that’ just 2k heal and you will lose that health in the next 2 hits.
I am satisfied with my build but I wish, i could do a bit little more damage.
Thank you for the insight, and nice to meet you all.
