I don’t believe full Zerk will make that much difference. Raising my Crit% won’t change my damage.

And yes, I am not using some high damage traits like Executioner. Maybe I should try changing my habits and stop Backstabbing player with full HP.

Well glad to know I am not exactly in the wrong way. Gonna change my traits a bit to adapt the new circumstances.

Help with BackStab Damage

First of all, I am completely uninformed of all those nerfs and etc.
I made my Thief after the nerfs started on purpose since I don’t like broken classes. Now that nerfs started I made my thief and I am trying to stay here. Yup I am a bit masochist.

And this question is straight related to WvWvW only.

That said:

Why my Backstab damage is so low?
I keep floating around 5.7k~6k at best (solo, with foods only). I find quite amazing to see some thiefs hitting close to 12k (some even more) and I am stuck at half that.
What I am doing wrong?

For information, my stats in the attachment. I am using full Valkyrie with Zerk trinkets and Zerk Weapons. At the moment D/D and SB, though I am planning to change the SB to S/D since I like the combinations and I never really liked range damage.
Full Ruby Orbs on Armor and Trinkets.
Traits are 10/30/10/20/0
