PAULDRONS NOT MASSIVE ENOUGH

Yes. Where is Burnfall?

Knote.2904:

I have 575,674 gold, don’t even know what to buy, please Anet nerf gold too much drops.

You could always send 2k my way

EDIT: or perhaps 20k. I am not trying to be greedy.

Novomundum.8325:

I see. So the dp builds is op while everything else is fine. I can’t believe some people are condemning an entire profession based on 1 builds though. seems a bit close minded. But now, what’s the deal with dp? is there really absolutely no way to solve their nigh immortality?

Well 90+% of my fellow thieves use that spec. Thieves who don’t rely on perma stealth aren’t opd at all. They don’t need the crutch.

No. Can you please stop vouching for us?

lol

This thread is simple. Since anet is planning on giving all classes access to all weapons, I took the initiative and made an idea of my own which I shall post here.

If you have an idea already made on another part of the forums, feel free to post it’s URL with a little descriptive. If its a readable size you may also copy/paste it

This is not a discussion thread.

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/thief/Rifles-4-thieves-pls/first

This is my idea for what the skillset and traits could look like if thieves were given rifles.

I designed it by making it initiative heavy and more powerful the farther you are. I also added a few ideas for initiative use and a specialized auto attack. The auto changes every 400 units starting from a very weak shotgun attack up to a slower but more powerful shot at 801. The last 2 skills are powerful but come with a number of drawbacks:

1.) High cost.
2.) Roots.
3.) Initiative regen stops.
4.) Initiative drains while rooted. No refunds for canceling early.

Incurafy.6329:

You’re about to unleash a storm of QQ-tears from players who can’t counter Thieves and rage-tears from the Thieves angry at their ignorance.

The simple answer is that no, they’re not. The more complicated answer can be found in the 303,494 page “feedback” topic located somewhere on this forum.

Good thieves are OP vs scrubs.

JETWING.2759:

Thieves with rifle?
Ridiculous!
Completli out of Thief theme :/

So is everything else. Don’t forget we DO NOT have a 1200 range option. Rifle sounds better than Longbow anyway.

You have to admit they have some good points.

Dat lack of punctuation.

On topic: TL;DR Offer a counter without completely negating a traitline.

I don’t want to hear it from you thieves. You want something that completely negates a traitline and a bunch of skills? Okay, have our pets. If they die, the beastmaster traitline is shut down, and the actives for our signets are shut down. I don’t want to hear it.

You have 2 pets. When one dies you bring the other one out and wait for the first one to recover. Pretty sure you aren’t as screwed as you think.

You are when both of them are down, which is the same thing you guys are complaining about. Except it happens to rangers all the time…so really…think about us before you complain about it, since we’ve been dealing with it since the game launched.

Yet you have the options to keep the pet alive where thieves can’t do anything about being revealed.

Yea, keeping it alive means not using it all the time. And don’t say that crap about F3 call it back from battle, when A) pets can’t dodge and always take time before actually coming to you and you can’t call it back to you because you are meleeing the foe too (again, I can dodge, pet can’t).

So now here’s the same option for thieves. Don’t use stealth so you don’t need to worry about revealed.

Its called Pet Management and it requires you to pay attention to your pet’s status. Letting your pet facetank while you mindlessly fire arrows into everything will get you killed.

WoW’s Hunter pets are a little harder to manage but the concept is the same across the board with pet-based classes. Things like prioritizing who defends and assaults, who tanks and heals, etc when the situation changes is is part of pet management which can be accomplished by watching your pet and their HP.

Your pet isn’t a meatshield, its an extension of your character. If you don’t treat it like a party member then you kinda earned your loss.

sword/pistol is good for pve. Use it and go kill everything to get used to the mechanics before you start on anything else.

no, we’re getting reveal counter , quit crying

and gg

You still die to d/d conditions. :3

Updated trait ideas.

I would have destroyed it like everything else I destroy. :c

Pros drag, drop and press yes.

And it really sucks since you can’t salvage Invader’s junk either. I just think that’s asking a little much to dig through multiple layers of RNG for an inscription.

Re-read my post and compare our both statements.

Where is your Cause?

None whatsoever.

>>>>>In other word, you are TheTroll<>>>>

Reversal doesn’t work in the art of trolling.

And……………where your Cause?

None

Whatsoever!

My cause is to point out fallacies.

Than the OP Factual Evidence and countless Factial Evidence since the begining of the gw2 forum, were all “Fallacy”?

As the saying goes, “In-denial is the Fall of Man”

Lastly, “Never argue with one who’s In-denial, if you do, you will become 1One with him”

End of argument.

That response made me laugh.

I’m just saying. There is a little bit of OP in every class.

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Soldier%27s_Orichalcum_Imbued_Inscription

Exactly what it the drop rate on this seeing as though the only way to get one is by salvaging?

I want to know if its worth spending the extra gold making Chorben’s weapons.

One things for certain: Legendaries are a very crappy concept.

Anet nerfs the ability to complain
OR
……….

Yeah mainly that.

Dand.8231:

The real reason he’s naked is cause Backstab is so OP it also broke all of his gear. He obviously didn’t strip naked, and stack extremely favorable conditions to skew the numbers.

Obviously.

His armor got scared and dodged before it hit.

Sanduskel.1850:

This improvement isn’t really anything to worry about. 4s isn’t long, and it will finally make fighting rangers a challenge. They need lovin too.

Try d/d conditions and you may have to rethink that statement.

Zacchary.6183:

@ The Jokester

You try too hard.

TheJokester.4672:

Explain I mean I don’t get why you’re so hurt that ur op class is finally getting a balance cant wait for some of the other classes to be able to take u noobs out of stealth

Zacchary.6183:

I’m hurt? Wow.

TheJokester.4672:

You are you cry about the stealth it isnt even something that can be done more than once a minute after the fight has started seriously cry less develop some skill

Zacchary.6183:

Interesting. Please, keep contradicting yourself.

TheJokester.4672:

Contradicting myself eh? all i’ve done is continue to point out how u cry revealed ends a traitline as i said b4 it doesnt just gives u guys a cool down so to speak and you are kitten and I continue to say so I think u just like seeing your name so you sir troll will be ignored following this coment as in you are a complete dope to the update 6-8 seconds revealed 40 sec cooldown might even get increased who knows making at most 32 seconds free time for you before u get put on overpowered cooldown and kite evade teleport around then back to op

Well I think your opinion is stupid too.

@ The Jokester

You try too hard.

Clockwork Bard.3105:

Sir Vincent III.1286:

Even if we are to use a pair of tooth picks, Rangers and Warriors will still cry about it.

tp/tp thieves are so OP! My warrior has to eat cheese from the cheese platter one piece at a time. Nerf them, or there will be no cheese for the rest of us!

Queue Queue! Roll a cheesemer and see how much you complain.

@ The Jokester

Revealed removes stealth and prevents stealth from being applied for the duration of the debuff. Nine out of fifteen traits requires the thief to stealth or be in stealth for these traits to work.

As for the other unaffected traits, Last Refuge kills more than saves and its mandatory to have for SA traits. The rest are weak or situational.

Knowing that I think its safe enough for me to say that giving classes enough access to Revealed will pretty much kill an entire traitline.

Ryan.8367:

yea, because flanking striking the air to get a 2 boon steal skill isn’t bugged/op at all

please

Having -100% condition duration applied to you isn’t OP either.

no because of this

I don’t need [stealth]

first sensible thing I’ve heard you say

Sanduskel.1850:

then learn to win without bs

learn to take defeat without kittening.

Bump because it must happen!

The best thing you can do is duel your friends and look on the thief forums for builds to test out and tweak.

Thats what I do.

and for the stealth design. but they are fixing it soon.

Just so you guys know, anti-stealth skills aren’t going to make a difference.

Oh good, then you don’t mind if anti stealth skills are given to all the classes?

No, cuz I don’t need it to kill scrubs. LOLOLOLLOOLLO!!

I see evil needs a little bit more training. Just a little bit.
