Guild Wars 2

PvE? Leveling can be done with any of the set combos. However, if you like doing Dungeons, D/D is the BEST damage output on SINGLE target that a thief has, while S/P is the BEST damage output for mobbing.

Dungeon builds for thieves use D/D and S/P. And of course tons of berserker.

D/D backstab is the highest single target DPS. There’s no other thief set that can match it (only single target), and as of various targets S/P seems the best.

This is what you want to run in WvW:

45% crit chance is ALRIGHT, with Hidden Killer trait (100% chance) you don’t need that much crit chance for basic attacks. 1767 is the number to hit 45% chance exactly, so everything else is pumped into Power and Vitality. Getting might on stealth works wonders with runes of strenght, perma +7% damage is really neat.

What would be the top ele and warrior builds for fotm/dungeons? I was always interested in a warrior in some way.

Hello guys, I need to know which class specifically has a great time in FotM. Like best team buffs, high dps, etc.

I currently have a Lvl 80 Thief but she’s not that good in fractals, can handle most bosses at 1v1 with D/D.

Also got a Level 75 Elementalist but I haven’t geared her as of yet, and I don’t know if she will be good in FotM.

I want a class just to do FotM and dungeons in general, suggestions and builds?

How much crit dmg do you want?
How much crit chance do you want?
How much vitality do you want?
ask yourself that, build around your answers.

The thing with power builds is that they’re flexible depending on the traits you’re running and your playstyle

I’d suggest getting your goals clear. How much Critical chance do you want? How much critical damage do you want? How much vitality do you want?
Those are the first questions you got to ask yourself, then build around that.

Congratulations on the video. You’ve got some cool plays there. Looks like you understand Thief Acrobatic mechanics pretty well, I’m interested in your playstyle. Looks really smooth. Will definitely try it out later.

Excuse me but how do you reach 20s Mug?

I have maxed trickery but my Steal is 27s?

P/D Condition build hands down.

Effective for solo roaming, can handle every class in 1v1 except some dedicated builds for example Condition staff mesmers, those screw you bad.

Can handle 1v2, up to 1v3 depending on their classes, or how scrubby they are.

Tanky

No one can survive such amount of conditions, you can crap even on most necros easily.

About 15k HP, geared for MAX crit you can achieve (122%), geared for almost MAX attack (the only thing that isn’t maxed are Runes).

I chose Divinity over other stuff because they give me the 2% critical damage that is VERY valuable x6, they give me 60 vit, thoughness, precision and power. You don’t get as much precision or power as you would get with other runes but they add a bit of tankiness without leaving crit dmg behind, which is absolutely great.

Shadow Arts line is fully maxed, meaning 300 thoughness, aswell the trait that makes you hit 100% crit while stealthed, this makes the most use of your max crit.
Also, with the upcoming Ascended armor, I plan on keeping my 6 clothes valkyried to fully reach the 15k.

45% Critical chance is a good number to have.

Signet of Malice + Dagger Storm.

works like a fken charm

It will just give 2 initiative upon entering stealth, not for every pulse, so SR won’t give more initiative too. And the black powder+heartseeker.

Honestly I’t doesnt bother me at all. I play D/D

Go take a look at Rangers, Thieves or Eles. Then come again with the guts to keep complaining about your kitten warrior

I got one fairly good suggestion that we’d like to see implement and I speak for many other users because I know I’m not the only one, well here’s it.

Make it so that each weapon set has its own keyboard setup for the 5 skills, so that you can have 1,2,3,4,5 for your skills of weapon set 1 and when changing to weapon set 2, you could have 1,3,2,5,4 instead of 1,2,3,4,5 for both sets.

I know this could be an easy implement and a GREAT change for those who want to maximize their gameplay.

Also, make it that you can change the position of icons too so you can quickly react to your new setup.

I made did a paint picture to explain this better, hope you guys like it and hope some day it makes it into the game.

I used this build for quite a good time, and I have to say I LOVED its survability and being able to combat high groups of mobs efficiently. Here’s it.

10-0-20-20-20
Use Mug for damage, heal and poison.
Use Gain initiative on stealth + stealth when using steal
Use the Falling damage trait OR might on dodge + Pain Response
Use Caltdrops + Thrill of Crime

Weapons are D/D and Shortbow.
Skills are Signet of Malice, Caltdrops, Signet of Shadows, Shadow Refuge and Dagger Storm
You can go either: Rabid armor with Berzerk Daggers, and mixed trinket between Rabid and Berzerk OR Full carrion OR full dire.

It all depends on if you want to crit, or have a nice base attack or being a plain condition dmg tank.

You mostly use STEAL and Death Blossom in this build, Signet of Malice is GODLY while you drop Caltdrops and not to mention the insta HP regen when doing Dagger Storm.

Very solid build, I loved it, I recommend it, easy to play, easy to damage people with SB and for getting away in WvW, effective in PvE.
