Do not use earth dagger 5 in pvp ever unless your holding a point or you like dying, everytime I see a ele use it pvp I nuke them with everything I got.
I have gotten the best results in 1v1s using berserker armor divinity runes and clerics accessories.
I think Pvt is almost always a mistake.
earth dagger 5 is huge damage; it’s super effective! Use it out of range then lightning flash in. Best comboed by swapping to air and popping shocking aura for the fury and the stun if ppl try to attack u.
What do you do about ranged people with a KD?
(Engie rifle #4)
Oh he coming lol , he never fails to show up.
- Save dodges, blinds, aegis for their C&D
Besides these skill-based ways, there aren’t really any hard-counters, besides
their low ability to catch up with players who are running away from them.Are you suggesting that thieves are slow? I thought all the Bookahs had died out!
Yeah, P/x are really fast with that 3 sec swiftness on dodge that ends right after the recovering from the dodge, or that 25% mspeed from signet of shadows which easily
is outrun by swiftness. And so heavy on gap closer with that 45 sec cooldown steal, and possibly 2 shadow steps from utilities. It’s so easy to catch Guardians, Elementalists, Mesmers, Engineers, Warriors, Rangers. wth was I thinking…Only SB and D/x stands a chance to this über-mobility !
I approve this message.
RNG man…try another 250
RNG akittens best.
I won’t play Asuran because they are beyond hideous , and they wobble when they run as if they’re going to tip over any sec..also they are quite the noisy bunch -.-
I mean the full on Carrion P/D Thieves…
Best counter to P/D thieves in 1v1 is to walk away while laughing.
What class are you playing because I can keep 12 stacks of bleed up consistently at 135 damage. Then spider venom on you for around 216 every 2 seconds. If I devourer’s venom you in caltrops I can easily get the bleed stacks to 20+
That’s 2,600 damage a second for my 7/8’s of bleed, not counting my pistol shots and CnD or spider venom. WTF class are you running that can shrug off that damage?
l
any pseudo class that can move.

Took 25 boxes to get this , and 250 normal coffers to get Jade.
This from the guy with 2200 hrs and no pre…i guess these 2 skins obtained are = to one..

Bleeding low stacks…check.
retal doesnt bother my p/d build at all…or engineers for that matter. unless 409 is a power crit build? p/d = 22.5k hp
Tall Tale Signs of you not using Sneak Attack enough..watched some duels today of a bad thief just auto atking…please tell me that wasnt you lmao
Also , all you have for conditions is bleeding and the occasional poison venom user who’s utility slot is thwarted by 2 cleanses.
409 full elix build , 7 (8 including S) cleansers , 350 dmg per sneak atk X 5 (lets pray he isnt using HGH lmao) = Laugh out Loud.
Without all the mentioned above…itll still be a while before they actually die (all low stacks of bleed) ..inb4 caltrops usage.
So Osi, let me get this straight. You spent 24 per exotic, and you got 30 exotics. This means you pumped at least 720g into this thing. Whether you did it in batches or in one go is irrelevant to me.
Now, you didn’t think it was weird that one event mini, one – which in the past has always been account bound – was virtually destroying a purely gem-generated market carefully built up by Anet over the last 10 months? Not only that, this was going on while you could still buy the normal 3 mini pack for 300 gems? A pack which renders a green mini at best, or very unusually, one rare mini? This didn’t strike you as odd? The more I read your reasoning, the more difficulty I have with understanding it.
You keep focusing on the “bad luck” part. What if you had had “good luck”? Would that have made a difference? The outcome of your forging is completely irrelevant. What is important is the effect it had on the market, and on the people you duped with it.
Couldn’t of wrote it better myself lol
Numbers look high, but it doesn’t correlate with in game combat. As it stands, guardians and eles are still, by far, the tankiest.
Engis can only heal that high through the use of spamming healing bombs for ~400 hp each, which is quickly negated by any profession specced in power, and thieves have to stay in stealth the entire duration of the fight. Guardians can remain tanky while being on the offensive, so can eles, which is why you will usually see a guardian/ele beat most engis and thieves(assuming the thief decides to stay)
I think most people will know by now that thieves are one of the worst tanking classes, which is why they get stealth, and engi’s would probably be in the middle.
IMO
Guardian D/D ele
BM ranger
Necro
Engi
Warr
Thief
Mesmer
You don’t even remotely know what you talking about , everything you said was anecdotal evidence..makes me wonder have you even played GW2 before.
So far i learned 3 things from this thread.
1) RNG sucks
2) Females have better luck in this game
3) Zommoros gets richer by the second.
Its all been covered before , it have for the longest of time become complete and utter redundancy.
You crafted 30 exotics…now thats what you call abuse lol
Oh wow , thanks alot guys
Im currently recieving 0.74 MB /s downloading and 1.03 uploading…any one would know why my bandwidth is soo low , im supposed to be getting 15 MB and im currently on a wireless connection.
Engie with 409 make P/D like child’s play whilst gaining boon (maybe might too if traited) lol…oh and retal wrecks them
No one has the exact % but its VERY HARD to get those.
So you quite lucky..

Buy 250 Regular boxes and /win
All minis etc sold for 13g total = paid 9 gold for a ticket O.o
Last Refuge has its pros and cons , i think its quite balanced
Working as intended
Guys , cleanse some of your mail out..i didnt get any either till i deleted a few mail and recieved mine

In a similiar route with full ascended MF ticking in at 420 with full stacks and guild buffs im clocking in 33 T6 scale an hr , 8 boxes , 9 rares and 140 t5 scale with the occasional 2-3 reef rider..put yourself on a hourly regimen every 5 hrs or so and you’ll combat DR with great success. With DR my numbers were like 150 trophies , 16-20 T6 100 T5 scale , 4 rares , 0-3 boxes and no reef riders / settler gears
This is not the way to solve the problem, to solve this problem there are things that are needed:
-Thieves cant enter stealth while in combat unless using special utility skills with high CD
-Abilities that let you enter stealth while in combat, like cloak and dagger should let you enter stealth without the need to hit anyone
-Stealth has a longer CD
-All kind of damage and blocks should reveal the thief
-Reduce draastically the burst damage of abilities like backstab, its not balaced to practically OHKO someone from stealth, its OP.
And this will balance the things, and now the thieves are fixed.
You do realize that warriors axe autoattack does MORE damage than backstab right?? Every class has a number of skills that do more damage than thieves, doesnt require stealth, doesn’t require position behind enemy. You need to be more informed how things work before making suggestions as silly as this
Your argument is void till said skills are placed on an 4 sec CD.
Lol 50% damage increase on fire auto , man that thing hits like a truck as is…
1) Watch that the mesmers buff bar , it indicates when she’s about to leap
2) Dont run from those clones when they beeline into you , roll into their arms
3) You didnt put ANY pressure on that mesmer , when you remotely hit her she melted
4) She shatters majority of the time when she binds you with blurred frenzy just cleanse and roll into the clones , then you proceed to put pressure on her.
5) You seriously tried the Staff before S/F , the Focus potent defense mechanics are often over looked
6) When she dodge spam like that you should know she has no endurance left , open up with a updraft burning speed ring of fire FG ftw..
over 1300 hours on my engie , tell me somthing i dont know…wait you did
(jump while shoooting pistol lol) insanity ^^
Flamethrower is an utility weapon…put that down and grab a different kit or P/P P/S or Rifle if you want to kill stuff efficiently.
Purchases on the trading post must be made using coin and there are two fees applied to sales: 5% of the asking price to list and a 10% tax when the item is sold.
I fully agree madmonkey , its a simple L2P.
(yes i know , i know i know)
I play thief because i can text with 1 hand and kill people with other…only class so far that allows me to do it , when im about to die (which is rare) i move that hand and press my stealth button and i be k (clicking yes)
They creating more 5 min dungeons , RNG skins and more feminine clothing for the gem store
Where did Insidious come from , he seems to be one fed up disgruntled kitten lol…seem like a 3k rare Zommoros victim :o
Surpised it took you this long to find the Elitist lol , they a pretty raunchy bunch. Take for instance anyone where theres amples amounts of loot to be had via party compatability thats where you will more than likely find them.
Unfair advantage is spammed invulnerability , stealth , forgo LOS linked with burst damage..now thats unfair lol .
This the first time i heard somone qq about the mesmers being pirsued by the pet .
Starting from the right
WOW , i have an level 80 warrior (pve tool) but i mean you pretty much is a good warrior and you had to work that kitten a petty thief and an upleveled…like the above poster said “Watching this makes me wince though, reminds me how bad warrior sustain really is.” Wow just wow , also that Thief with those blinding fields completely disabled you Q.Q..you really need a form of Engineers goggles lol.
Yeah best of luck getting somone to let you in on their secrets …best chance you may get is via PM and even thats far fetched
Your build is perfectly fine as is , bombs arent nearly as effective without that added radius , its like picking grenades without Grenadier trait (sort of) . You have enough burning as is esp with you running P/P lol.
He’s about to hit 62, and the Superiors are usable from 60 onward.
Who with half a brain would put Superior Runes in anything other than 80+ items…
and where exactly is the problem doing this? you could get them back if you have half a brain
Thats a rare commodity , thats like saying use common sense ^^
Throwing 4 legendaries into the toilet will make it clog up and u will only get poops…lol
We’ve been getting poops since day 1.
Working as intended aye? xD
Far as I know , as long as he doesnt stick his face onto the barrel of a rifle or suffering from KD , he’ll passively avoid Net Shot lmao

i used to run a similar build the other alternative you could use is, get 4 runes of alturism and 2 runes of water they dont give you as long might duration but its only 30% less you can still easily maintain 25 might maybe even easier with alturism, but with the extra boon duration you should be able to maintain perma swiftness,fury and 12-16 might when running around if you swap to med kit and back only to use the swiftness and fury buff skill it only takes 1 second to do it once you get used to it and using toss elixir H and B its kinda annoying procing them all the time but its so very good going into combat with it all up
He’s not even of level 80 yet if you’re talking about the Superior versions
Drop the 10 in Enhance Performance or Invigorating Speed , and pick up Speedy Kits for perma swiftness , you wont regret it.
Maybe if he picks one build and sticks to it, lol.
I randomly run past Dawnheart all the time lol ^^
Goooo Blackgate
Nades bane is S/D, anything other than that is…well…. cannon fodder.
