Dont nerf it just give other classes abilities to counter it.
I wouldnt like other classes to be able to counter it, first of all, thoese who run a stealth build is nessecary, if everyone can counter that, it would be pretty weak, and not how Arena Net intend it to be.
If some get this skill, it will mainly be, who can counter thiefs in other words, there will be a direct build to counter any stealth thief, which would wreck thiefs even more than it is now. Beside that, the thiefs only have a stealth that is about max 10 second, and thats only the AoE stealth. if we can see them, or counter that, the thiefs wouldnt have any need to go stealth build.
I only want a more strategy way of ussing stealth, instead of almost spamming it when small dmg is comming.
This way the thiefs will be able to get more unique and scary, and also alot more welcome everywhere. The thiefs that have been reading what I wrote seems like they like this idea, problem is that it will be a whole remaking thiefs, which is also a bit sad, since it might not happen
Not every one will be running stealth counter builds. If you do you would lose something else.
Go to the warrior forums read the one about blocking. Theifs stealths and warrior uses block skill and theif doesnt un stealth do all theif does is spamm his shills till block is over. I understand relying on stealth but in its current state its to strong. Im assuming your main is a theif
32 and you playd 2500 hrs
That 6.8 hrs a day for a year.
Or 104 24 hour days
I wish i had such a lavish life.
You sound like u been playen games for a long time. Then you should be use to this its in every game. Some people play for pve some for pvp some to just socialize and theres the other that like messen with people.
This is the downfall of games.
I can no longer rob. Steal. Kill. Mislead. Swindle. Betray. Burglerize. Stump. Haras. Drive crazy. Bewitch…. Well i guess you can say greif.
People are cry babies now. Every one thinks games revole around them and them alone.
Just yesterday i got banned from a game cause i sold some one a gold ship. They reported me cause it was ’yellow. (it looked damm gold to me)
Some advice kid grow up. Suck it up and move on. Honestly people that complain about every little thing are ruining games
Maybe you need to grow up and realize you ruin games for others.
Only nieve gamers. It just comes to a point were people are going to start complaining that in pvp because some one kills you alot they are picking on you.
And i am gown that why im not complaining about everything cause its not going they way i want it.
3 teams would be fun. Blue team read team and yellow team.
have say a orb in the centure of a map. Teams compete to have posetion of the orb.
3 team death match

Eve online has it right they stepped back and let players play.
Heavy amor class that uses 1H weapons only
Main hand:
Dagger
Axe
Sword
Mace
Pistol
Spear( yes i want to see one handed spear implimented anet you can do it so why not)
Staff ( none magic just good old fasion beating with a stick)
And wat ever other ones i missed.
Make the weapon skills have somenthat make u use your free hand like dagger can gice u a attack were you throuw a chain and it sux you to the target.
I do like the name soldier but if it doesnt work well you can always think of something else
Well i like to run a high crit dagger necro 1v1 its rather nice but in wvw id personaly go axe and dagger build. Axe range well sux so ur practicly fighting up close. And the main reason i take dagger offhande is i can practicly keep perman haste with some traits that boost speed. For wvw i like axe. When i run into a stragler i pull out dagger and warH. I havent playd much in the last mounth so im not sure if much has change with ma builds but its effective
Well of blood should increase heals depending on how much allies ( or eminies) that r inside its range. So the more allies the better it heals. It is alreay a support spell for your team if they added this makes it better with a team but not as good solo.
You put to much on your power and to much on fury from ds. I have 50% crit rate and 50% crit damage so I don’t even need fury from going into ds foot in the grave for the stable is much better.
Go to 1215 of the video and you can clearly see in lich from you hit 2900 roughly were as I hit 4000.
now granted your build may have little more HP or toughness.
If your getting these stats in spvp your running with berserkers ammy which will give you roughly 22k hp. Have fun getting insta gibbed.

Er why?
Necros are verry squishy.
Example my bayesian 16k HP out loves my necro 25k HP 90% of the time
And with the amount of damage thieves and ele s dish out they should be lower. Unless you suggest that all classes get the ability to burst your foe down in a couple secs.
I know its been suggested, but I would kill for a boomerang…. suits my thief soo much better but maybe it would suit a “trick” utility skill rather than a dedicated off-hand.
Ah but that’s the point of this thread if it’s already been said keep brining it up.
Anet needs to know what players want so.don’t feel bad.bout saying a weapon some one else already mentioned.
Glad to see every one.keeps.coming up with new ideas.
It’s seems like every time I turn around this thread disappears on me lol.
I’d just like.to add slings (if I haven’t already mentioned it lol)
And give a little.bump and new faces care to comment.
1. Because they’re actually pretty sucky in close-quarters combat.
Realistic scenario:
Spear man vs Sword+Shield man.
Spear man thrusts. S+S man blocks with shield and stabs. S+S man wins.
Oversimplified, but that’s the general reason why soldiers are cliched with shields+swords instead of spears.
2. Now-existing Balance limits.
Arena Net has designed land-combat around the existing weapons.
They can’t simply change it whenever they want – They set a standard, and altering it leads to hidden difficulties for the balance-team.
ANet is aiming for eSports, so keeping their combat simple is important for making the game audience friendly.
3. It’s their game.
Arena Net chose to exclude Spears from on-land combat, they were been in development for over 7 years. They clearly had a reason.
And what that reason is, is not within our privileges to demand. :P
1- spear and shield would beat sword and shield. And by using you knowledge sword and shield beat great sword cause s+s can block while GS just slashes? Doesn’t make.much sense to me… I’d like to see you come at me( wielding a Halberd) with your dinky sword and shield. (yes I did just mention 1h spear.and a 2h pole arm.)..
2-spear is could easily be done and a single target increased range over the sword.
Halberd( pole arm ) increased ranged over or even the same as GS. Dive it either lower damage or lower attack speed (I chose the latter.
3- the best games are ones witch INCLUDE player input if anet didn’t want it there would be.no suggestion forums.
For spvp I have a build IM rather happy with but it’s focused on crits
54% chance and 40% damage
No I can Easly swap some gear to lose the crit and boost power but is it better?
Dagger as main warhorn or focus as second depending on my mood.
any one with power experience would be nice enough to speak up IM all ears.
IM running hybrid power/cond good dps and decent survivability.
I run dagger/warhorn and off hand scepter/focus
It’s pretty effective. At least in spvp
It’s fine between work and my women I don’t have much time to play. And IM a pvp player spvp and wvw. So when I do play I want to kill ppl not lvl so it’s takes a while for me to lv I don’t currently have a lb 80 yet lol
Lol love it. I’d would change something about it. Have skins for weapons and,armor maybe.
And instead of a dungeon I’d have ‘farms’ make it possible for each separate area to have ore wood veggies and some poor critters to farm.
Also the whole break artifact has to go. Add a npc instead you don’t want this to similar to other games…. I’d also input npc guards that have the possibility to be upgraded.
I know Alot of pvpers don’t like npc in pvp but it adds more difficulty and makes attackers strategize instead of just rush in swords drawn.
P.s. I know exactly were you got this idea lol don’t see much fans any more.
When you finish off an enemy, isn’t this a weapon/killing skill?
Who thinks the Thief should be visible when it is doing this?
Everyone else has to stand there vunreble while they do it.
While im on about Thiefs are you sure there stelth aoe is limited to 5 ppl, i have been in big groups and the Thief seams to vanish for everyone.
In that case, starting to perform a finisher should drop stealth from Mesmers (who can also stealth) as well as drop Endure Pain off of warriors, Mist Form and Obsidian Flesh from elementalists, and remove Aegis, Stability, Protection, Retaliation, and Regeneration from guardians.
Oh, wait, or we could just let the thieves use their class-specific mechanic. You know, like ALL the other classes do in PvP.
Sounds like someone doesn’t want their thief to get less OP lol.
Finishing someone is a aggressive act and should be treated like all of the other aggressive skills and cause the thief to DE cloak.
It’s one thing I love about my thief but it needs to be fixed.
Also I don’t believe you can finish some one in mist form.
IM all up for a alchemist. But we already got one it’s called the engineer.
Look up the definition of alchemy and you will see you are wAaaaay off…
And there is no d&d alchemist class (officially) and path finder is still going on lol.
An alchemist is essentially a chemist with the ability to ‘transmute
the ability to change and manipulate anything into anything else as,long as it share the same chemical makeup
But I’ll give you props for a attempt
- auras / mist. imagine a whirling element / crystalshards / black goo around your hand. like the eles attunement effects only much more detailed and bigger
- mojo/shrumpheads/voodoo dolls. like witchdoctor in Diablo 3. could contain highly specialized skills for one purpose
- clawfinger. might at you fingertips. imagine a mean asura necro drawing symbols with his finger causing havoc and fear
- blowdarts ! steal them from hylek
- skulls – like adam from gw1
- a “swordwhip” like that guy from castlevania series
Yes your right they just need to embed the blowdart the same time they add the hylek as a playable race(in 100% serious do it!!)
If you like necros play one you won’tknow till you actually experience them. I play a warrior sword/axe and rifle.
Now every one I’ve talks to day sword and axe combo is horrible but it’s fits my style and I do pretty good with it. just about to start a necro in,a couple of days.
I’m all for things that make guilds work harder to defend a keep, but not for anything that makes people do it for greed.
WvW should be about Honor, not wealth.
If I was in your army and you announced that we (your soldiers) will not receive any income or compensation for killing your enemies I’d sneak in you tent assassinate you. Take control of you army and pay ‘my soldiers with spoils of war. And just for kicks I’d let then have at any captives any way they please. :p
My newly acquired army would be much happier.
Money talks friend.
