p/p can’t decide of its a condition weapon or a power weapon. Staff won’t be able to decide if its a melee weapon or a ranged weapon. You see the comparison? X can’t decide if its a Y weapon or Z weapon.

I 100% agree with you on the dual pistols part, but how do you know about the staff? Despite evidence supporting staff, we don’t even truly know if it’s the thieves elite weapon, let alone the skills that are going to come along with it.

Side note, I’d prefer the staff to be a melee weapon, as a magic-wielding, ranged “shadow assassin” theme would fit better for a focus or scepter in my opinion.

people data mined a picture of “staff theif” (you know…like how they datamined a ele with sword. look how true that turned out)
and now they assume that they getting a melee staff like revanent(you know. the thing people hated for its horrible dmg and cried about)

thief getting ranged staff…doesnt really make sense. as we have so many ranged staffs, and even ranger staff is ranged.

theif melee staff, is like wise a bad move. cause look at revanant’s reaction to it. now thief players are assuming a staff will be “good AoE” when in all likely hood its going to (if its real) be pathetic dmg that is a gimmick, and nothing more.

Rifle has the potential to a new playstyle. with dmg potential while avoiding making any of theif’s current weapons irrelevant (they will all have their roles wile rifle is stationary long range)

but staff would either be horrible underperforming and weak.

or

would replace sword as the theif AoE melee weapon.

or

would replace shortbow as the ranged AoE weapon.

in the end, it doesn’t fit.

People commented on revenant staff based on its numbers not its playstyle or its skills, numbers ahve since been adjusted.

As for the datamining, yes , it is not official till it’s announced. But your comparison can be improved a bit. See the thief staff (both picture and weapon) were datamined at the same time as the Ele warhorn (and the picture used on the spec line). The ele warhorn came true, so…

But yeah, ofcourse we will not know till its officially announced.

Whether it fits depends on the actual weapon skills, of which we know nothing. Yes thief already has dagger and sword mainhand. Warrior has sword/gs/hammer/axe/etc mainhand, yet they all function differently, until we see the weapon and its skills its hard to judge whether it brings something new to the class. There’s more to playstyles then melee or ranged.

I mean dont get me wrong rifle would be a cool weapon, but atm there is more pointing towards staff (recent datamining) than to rifle.

Either way, i’d be happy with either. Can’t wait to hear what the spec of thief will be.

if we talk about datamining

i’ll point to beta test datamining of vanilla GW2

when Thief concept art still had rifle in it
and thief datamining had rifle skills

but before release, it got delayed, and then launch came, and it got forgotten(or was it? Anet was it forgotten, delayed, or postponed?)

so rifle has had dibs far longer, going so far to have concept art with game’s launch.

and other than concept art. we have a character in game who is a relic of that

stof.9341:

And rifle will replace P/P and Shortbow ranged weapon role …

no

Shortbow is a AoE weapon with mobility
Pistol Pistol is a mid range mobile ranged weapon. in addition to its combination possibilities with sword and dagger, its mostly focused on moving and shooting

rifle would be long range, but stationary (aka, like warrior’s GS’s 100 blade strike and ranger’s LB’s barrage skill. rifle theif would need to stay still when using skills)

and unlike pistol and shortbow whose dmg is the same at all range.

rifle would do less dmg the closer to target it is.
similar to ranger LB

so pistol/pistol is like ranger shortbow
shortbow thief is….well like something range doesn’t have (Aka a AoE ranged……pre patch traps?)
and rifle theif is a ranger longbow

Sorry man I feel like I crushed your hype. I know its all over the place but a little more control over that pet and its skills + maybe a trait that dodges when we dodge imo that should be baseline or something. That way pet can combo with us, we have more control and our pet won’t die as fast to cleave. I’d feel like the poor little guy was actually trying to help then too! Right now I feel like we grabbed the mutt of the litter for our pets.

that pet is why i have a lv 80 theif, ankitten ow leveling a necro.

i used to have a lv 80 ranger, but it was so unappealing that i deleted it
remade a sylvari range….deleted at lv 53
and now i have an asura ranger….and trying not to delete it

that pet gets me in so much trouble i prefer other classes for being able to dodge roll and not get dragged into combat.

heck on the livestreams, i always see rangers using passive pets.
in which case, whats the point of the pet? its just a hp bar to transfer conditions and dmg to.

why not replace it with the necro f skill xD

putting pet in passive mode actually allow more control, since you select his target, and he doesn’t go on a random one at the beggining of the fight.
IF you want to run around in PVE and not be annoyed by your pet taking aggro, just stow it. It’s the little icon with a down arrow on it. Your pet will disapear, and reappear as soon as you get into combat.

It also triggers one ranger trait to do that, without the penalty of switching pet. Which is good

if i put the pet on passive whats the point…..

and if i stow it. it shows up as soon as i get hit. why can’t it stay stowed until i need it.

summary of this thread
some people hate both DE and DE 2.0
some people like DE but not DE 2.0
some people hate DE but like DE 2.0

and some people like both

the summary? no clear winner. Anet continue on a straight course(well….not exactly straight…..u know what i mean. continue on the course your on)

Son of Urza.1692:

I am pretty sure that elite specializations are added as an additional trait line, not replacing one of the old ones.

All traits that mention “shroud skill [#]” were explicitly changed because they refer to the [#]th skill in either Death Shroud or Reaper Shroud. Transfusion, Unyielding Blast, and Dhuumfire all work with Reaper Shroud, they are just triggered by different skills.

a good to know =D

thank you!
i would have hated to lose 3/5 of my stun breaks xD (i dont much like the other 2)

so when Reaper comes, it gets its own trait line, so assuming i wont be able to use the soul reaping trait line? (which is problematic as there are traits there for staff’s mark skills, and spectral skills)
-will this mean reaper can’t use staff or spectral skills? (thats problematic as thats 3 of your stun breaks gone. 2 from spectral skills. and 1 from soul reaping trait line. i don’t see any reaper skills giving stun break…)

or will it jsut be a 6th line? and let me use any of the other 5 as my remaining 2 trait lines?

either way, the following skills i have questions about. will these traits be changed as well?
some of them are reliant on shroud skills, though most are in the soul reaping trait line. one is not.

one is in the blood magic line, which is problematic…..

first off, the skills that would work with new Reaper

from Spite
-Spiteful Spirit Cast unholy feast when entering shroud.

from Curses
-Path of Corruption Shroud skill 2 now additionally converts boons into conditions.
-Weakening Shroud 10 Cast enfeeble when entering shroud. Critical hits inflict weakness.

from Death Magic
-Unholy Sanctuary 30 Regenerate health while in shroud. If your life force is above the threshold, your death shroud will activate if you take a lethal blow.
-Shrouded Removal Lose a condition when you enter shroud and every few seconds while you remain in shroud.
-Armored Shroud Gain bonus toughness while in shroud.

from blood magic
-Unholy Martyr Draw conditions from allies when you enter shroud and every few seconds while you remain in shroud. Gain life force each time a condition is removed.

from soul reaping
-Vital Persistence Life force drains slower while in shroud. Shroud skills recharge faster.
-Death Perception Increases critical-hit chance while in shroud.
-Foot in the Grave Gain stability and break stuns when you enter shroud.
- Speed of Shadows Increases movement speed while in shroud. Reduces recharge on shroud.

and now. the skills that wont work with the new reaper

from blood magic
-Transfusion Shroud skill 4 heals and partially revives nearby allies. Up to five downed allies near you teleport to your location while you’re channeling shroud skill 4.

from soul reaping
-Unyielding Blast Shroud skill 1 pierces and causes vulnerability.
-Dhuumfire Shroud skill 1 inflicts burning on your target.

if Reaper replaces shroud skills, what will happen to transfusion? its not in the soul reaping trait line.
and what will happen to necro’s stun breaks. thats literally 3/5 of our stun breaks gone.

rifle!
cause we don’t have a 1200 range weapon!

staff is bleh cause we have 2 epic melee weapons. adding a 3rd kills the appeal as why would we need it…we have 2 already epic melee weapons.

RoseofGilead.8907:

Yeah, Anet is a bit inconsistent when it comes to whether or not Charr and Asura females will have the female model or male model. Just two examples: the Lich outfit gives both the male version, while the fancy wintersday outfit gives both the female version.

difference being one counts as normal clothes for both genders

and the other counts as undressed for 1 gender. and normal for the other gender.

facepalm

oh i know
which is why i said more feminine than 90% of the other

….like this…..(…..how is this female?)

so can i have the Male armor for female plz….since it looks more feminine than 90% of the copy pasted armor i was given….

i’ve made my comments on DE 1.0 in this

now for DE 2.0

honestly…i like them(to varying degrees)
they were a massive improvement over the constant infighting in DE 1.0 (STOP FIGHTING OR I’LL STAB YOU AND REPLACE U WITH SKRITT)

Tiami is interesting, as a underage character tagging along hasn’t been done yet, and her reliance on her golem is nice. my only complaint is when she walks, the game constantly makes her scream louder than she talks (idk whats wrong with her but turn the volume down or give her a hover chair)

Rox’s backstory is interesting, but mostly her and Braham need to get a move on and speed up their current stories. they tend to take the roles of 2ndary characters in the story when they should be up front.
Braham….stop copying Logan by being kitteny. Get along with your mother or ignore her. but stop brooding over it!!!!
Rox, give us ideas to your plans for the future. do you really have a crush on Braham? are you making any progress with rytlock. etc

Rox could learn a few things from the Charr in the light novel Ghosts of Ascalon’s Charr.

Marjory and Kasmeer are a breath of fresh air over the romance-less story we’ve had so far. and honestly i enjoyed their conversations.
compared to DE 1.0 and the Pact. Marjory and Kasmeer are actually believable in their emotions (though they could work on their timing…..middle of a fight is not the time…)

over all, i like them and look forward to bringing them along to turn Traeharne into firewood.
-i dont care if Traeharne turned evil or not. he’s going in the fire for being an emotionless, untimely, horribly written, glory stealing, forced in, character

XDeathShadowX.2619:

I personally like them (not so much braham with his bitterness against his mom for whatever reason), but I think the position they’re given really screws with people. It’s just like original DE, Trahearne, or the earliest example freaking Kormir. Anet seems to like to have you as a part of the story but they keep npcs close by to take all the credit. It’s like they don’t want to deal with justifying how every player would be the leader/victor/hero of the stories actions. Kill a god and somehow blind worthless chick gets the power, unite 3 factions into a multiracial army and somehow the salad scholar gets to lead it. So I like the characters of the group, especially in season 1 when they were just a bit of a focus point during the chaos, but in season 2 they try to pretend like you’re the boss when they’re the ones making the choices so it doesn’t really feel like you’re doing much but following them around.

One thing I will say I take issue with is that the “group” feels like it’s made of two separate groups. Whenever they split up Rox and Braham go one way and Marjory and Kasmeer go the other, then Taimi goes with one of them. So Taimi seems like the only one that interacts with everyone on a regular basis, like she’s the child of divorced parents and the only thing keeping them together. Otherwise rox and braham go bro it up somewhere while jory and kas go on an investigation date and the the 2 groups wouldn’t even talk if Taimi wasn’t there.

Also I didn’t care for DE 1, aside from Rytlock and Zojja. Caithe, Logan, and Eir all felt so lifeless to me.

logan had life. he was a b****
xD
sorry, had to be said. seems most people in AC and Twilight harbor agree on that though.

Caithe has life in the personal story, not so much when with DE
Rytlock only has life when u see him in black citadel.
Eir needs a rework (she’s a sculptor. let her sculpt!)
Zojja………………………………………………………………………has father issues…..(i know snaff isn’t her father but still….she’s got problems)

Can we please have nothing to do with Destiny Edge 2.0 when this expansion hits? They would serve much better as small packs of friends finding their own journey through Maguuma that we sometimes meet in-between our adventures, granted you might find the team enjoyable if you have a taste for bad dialect and story telling but most of us don’t like them.

It’s honestly a joke that to progress through the game, I have to do it with a cast of members I don’t like. Braham and Rox are stale, Kasmeer and Marjory are just shoehorned lesbians that constantly flaunt the fact that they are together in our face, tied together with the worst voice acting I have ever heard and Taimi though being really cool isn’t all that unique and special, just another disgruntled Asura. And as a character doing my story with them I can’t help but feel like a watcher of their drama with absolutely no inclusion in what they are doing.

Please don’t make them essential to the story in HoTS…

keep in mind the story ISN’T ABOUT YOU

tis about THEM.

YOUR the add on whose replacable (by every other player character in the game)

this is Destiny’s Edge 2.0’s story, that you just happen to be following

Except in the story those other player characters do not exist. You are DE 2.0’s leader. You defeated Zhaitan. You brought DE 1.0 back together. You were the first pact commander. And so on.

yeah, and how FORCED was that

read the novels. how forced is it to have a random person somehow bring DE 1.0 together……if u ply the dungeons, they did it on their own and you were jsut there. your the outsider and yet somehow your their leader(when most don’t even know who the hell you are)

you did NOT defeat zhaitan. the ship “glory of tyria” did it with its laser and confetti cannons(which was so lame. you just happened to be on the ship)

the Pact commander? sorry, but that whole thing was ruined by the kitten pile of weeds that should have been an advisor. not in charge of you with his emotionless voice acting.

DE 2.0 was brought together by you yes, but your replaceable. it doesn’t matter if you an asura, human, sylvari, or charr…..when what race you are should affect how you respond to them and how they respond to you. but it doesnt. so you replaceable.

i actually miss the lv 10 and 20 story lines….back when the story was PERSONAL and not you following people being forced into a random role.

ah that explains it

……wow its kinda sad that thats male armor.
it looks more like female armor than half the crap i seeing.

necromancers are already vampires!

we steal so much hp!!!!!!!

ok i’ve looked on the wiki…but i cant find this armor

anyone know its name?
:editing in armor now

The Queens Jubilee hiding the Cantha sector confused me, making me think Anet was trying to forget Cantha

but then Heart of Thorns brings Shiro to the Revanant.

well ok…he’s a notable character.

and now. Mini Mystical Dragon mini.

how is this relevant?

Cantha, the dragon festival.

Unlike “western themed Tyria”, where we mostly fight dragons,
Cantha had (strange) dragons that they didn’t always fight with(if they did at all…kinda foggy on memory)

these dragons, are similar to the Mystical Dragon Mini….if not copy pasted.

is Anet trying to tell us Cantha’s going to be relevant soon?

will we finally discover whats become of the country that the best GW1 expansion(lore wise…and trailer wise) country.

is Cantha the next expansion?
or perhaps an event?

or could we be having Canthans traveling over to discover whats happened to us since the rise of orr

-its all the more possible considering that recently, in the news
China is removing some restrictions on games.
mostly to consoles, but also to ALOT of games.
—————————————————————————————————————————-
could this be the green light for Anet to return to Cantha? (perhaps bubbles is there? or Primordeus?)
after all, having all the eldar dragons in Tyria seems kinda….lame
if these “god like dragons” all exist on this continent….then its not that threatening.
theres Cantha and Elona

if the dragons want Tyria. and ignore those 2 continents(specially Cantha with its massive magic) then why should we care? if we all die, they still live and will repopulate here when the dragons go to sleep again

Assassin X.8573:

i know i cried when tybalt selflessly sacrificed himself to save everyone. i didnt have the pleasure of working with the other two mentors but i just read their dialogues for the final moments of claw island and forgal definitely would have brought a tear to my eye as sell. not so much for sieran, though, there just doesnt seem to be much connection between her sacrifice and the other two mentors. tybalt’s and forgal’s have an intrinsic feeling of redemption/vindication while sieran’s seemed like something a hero “should” do. both tybalt and forgal “lost” something, yet sieran was just seeking adventure, in a weird way she was still (slightly) selfishly thinking of herself, even though the choice she makes is selfless in regards to saving everyone she can.

plus Tybalt and Forgal risk becoming minions when they are inevitably defeated. and they have to worry about doing enough dmg so that their addition to the ranks of undead isn’t a gain for zhaitan, but a loss.

the sylvari…..doesnt turn undead anyway so its not as dramatic.

Acheron.4576:

thieves have always wanted two things since i started playing beta. First is an off-hand sword, second was Rifle. Honestly staff was thrown from pretty much nowhere recently.

oh! offhand sword! love it!
3 skill would be executioner beheading =D (scissor slice)

lighter.2708:

Elite spec is to fill the empty spot inside a class.
Thieves have being QQing for a long long time that they can only play as zerker and nothing else is viable.

Hint:
What role thieves never able to play in PvP and WvW?
it has some thing to do for being on point.

don’t assume you represent all theives

What role theives never able to play in PvP and WvW?
range. why? cause all their good skills are melee or close up

shortbow is a shadow step/explosion spam weapon. not good for constant damage from range

pistol…..yeah….pistol/pistol enough said. it FAILED

pistol with dagger is a stealth spam. not a constant damage (or dmg at all really. its a time delay. designed for evading dmg and ends up closer range rather than actual range)

theif has always been in melee, doing bursts of dmg. (or constant dmg with a weaker build)

what doesn’t it have.
ranged constant dmg.

or good burst ranged dmg. (pistol pistol failed. shortbow needs ground targeting and so misses movign stuff)

add to all this pistol range is capped at 900 now. no 1050 range.

araskell.9018:

Do you have fast casting enabled in the options menu? Because I don’t have that. I have to click the mouse button to actually place the well on the ground. I’m pretty sure that I could cast it at my feet double tapping it, but maybe that was just a lucky coincidence >.>

I’m currently on vacation so I won’t be able to help much

i do have it enabled because of staff marks and the other 2 wells i use

but even before i enabled it, double clicking still didnt put it at my feet

Fade.5904:

Hmmm but warriors already have mace/mace and physical skills and i think dirty fighting would suit a thief more but ty for reply

yeah it seem brute force = warrior

but i added in ranger cause they are like the cleric/monks of nature. so 2 maces would kinda fit this druid theme (i can see them smashing maces together to make a blinding light…..wow i’ve read to much Drizzt Do’Urden)

but so far, all theif weapons are sharp cutting precision weapons.

not really any blunt force weapons so far

sounds more like something a warrior would use

or a ranger if stretched.

araskell.9018:

I think if you double tap the button which is currently assigned to your skill if will cast it on you feet? I can’t get ingame at the moment to test it, but I recall doing that before.

nope
if i hit the skill once, it immediately places the well where my mouse is (which i can’t see cause i’m moving the camera)

the 2nd i let go of the key, it places it. no time for a 2nd click.

wish i could right click the skill and select “place at feet”

singinggecko.5736:

Sorry man I feel like I crushed your hype. I know its all over the place but a little more control over that pet and its skills + maybe a trait that dodges when we dodge imo that should be baseline or something. That way pet can combo with us, we have more control and our pet won’t die as fast to cleave. I’d feel like the poor little guy was actually trying to help then too! Right now I feel like we grabbed the mutt of the litter for our pets.

that pet is why i have a lv 80 theif, ankitten ow leveling a necro.

i used to have a lv 80 ranger, but it was so unappealing that i deleted it
remade a sylvari range….deleted at lv 53
and now i have an asura ranger….and trying not to delete it

that pet gets me in so much trouble i prefer other classes for being able to dodge roll and not get dragged into combat.

heck on the livestreams, i always see rangers using passive pets.
in which case, whats the point of the pet? its just a hp bar to transfer conditions and dmg to.

why not replace it with the necro f skill xD

mazut.4296:

All you need to do is using your mouse on that skill in that situation. In the end is faster then to try to target yourself and then click it.

yes i know but i’m usually so busy controlling the camera. so it doesn’t help much to let camera go and groudn target

yeah….this is a ground target AoE, and when u get knocked down or knocked back, its annoying as hell to have to target yourself.

can we have the option to disable this one’s ground target so instead it always spawns at your feet?

that way i don’t accidently place it to far away to work on me (cause i have right mouse button down to turn camera)

singinggecko.5736:

Maybe it’s some of the strong desire not to be a transform thing kicking in for me, but I doubt it. If they had to make transforms for all the possible pets, it’d be a lot of work just for a line that might not even be used by every ranger build.

eh i guess you right =x

little sad though. that would make your pet serve a purpose other than….well….kittening you off by attracting aggro everywhere x.x (stay stowed until i need you!)

Ehecatl.9172:

Seems more like Nightmare Courtier magic than druidism. She’s a very twisted, evil character and isn’t exactly interested in upholding the balance of nature if she intends to completely change the world’s ecosystems to be spider dominant.

i dont mean just spiders
i mean any pet u have out at the time

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Fyonna

this character has been in game for ages, and yet while people call her a ranger, i’ve never seen a sylvari turn into a spider before. usually only norn transform (and necromancers…)

so what if Fyonna is a druid?

what if the F skill is changed into something LIKE a necromancer

you do damage and build it up. when you activate it, you and your pet become one. and the bar you filled up is the hp.

when the bar is emptied(or canceled) you unfuse and return to your normal selves.

just an idea. (no proof, just my guess)

Viking Jorun.5413:

Just something to note – just 2 months ago Sword skills were datamined for the Tempest. If the thief elite specialization is further out than anticipated, it may or may not still get staff.

inb4 theif gets a focus for a scepter and a focus for a weapon and everyone goes “what?!”

Cynz.9437:

idk why you are all so hyped… it will be garbage anyway by the tendency class design been going so far

Necro’s Reaper is pretty epic

muscarine.5136:

Seemed logic to me thieves would get the mace.

logically?
they’d get something sharp and painful. a spear is possible.

but usually something easily hidden.

logically necro needs a torch xD

idk what you talking about

i’ve never been MORE excited for necro
reaper is going to be epic

i was enjoying this mission SO MUCH
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GO-IC9EJp98&feature=youtu.be

Professor Gorr is great! specially when he talks about what apprentices are for

but every time Traeharne opened his mouth, all the joy DIED.

why couldn’t Traeharne have SHUT UP and let me enjoy this.

the mission was literally ruined because he had to talk.

It was supposed to be an action scene mixed in with funny lines. Risen slaying is serious business boy. You think this is a game? You think this is all about fun? People are dying son. No just kidding. Just think of Trahearne as your older brother who’s super serious.

sells older brother to a charr slaver as kindling

Setz.9675:

Weapon stance swapping through races (I need male norn GS weapon stance on my male human badly!)

GW2 HoT baseball hats

Mandatory suggestion: Race change kit (cooOoooOOo, character died but wipe your tears, dessa fished your soul out of the mists but….she did however messed up putting your soul in the right body… woops….)

Race changing just need to happen, after several years of playing a race I just want something else for that character of mine and Im not deleting 3 year old characters or characters with map completion.

asura longbow ranger to human longbow ranger
yes plz!

GS theif would be interesting (and appealing yes)

though fitting…..honestly they fit the theif less than the staff…..

still prefer GS over staff

The V.8759:

Hey guys!

So I went experimenting with a full beastmaster build in PvP. It felt great however my success was blocked by one major thing: Melee pets, mainly felines, cannot move when they are executing there attack. This causes every attack they do on their enemy, who can even be walking backwards, to not hit at all. I am kinda of tired of this and it feels like I am being incentivized to play less with the class mechanic.
I understand that fixing some AI can be really hard, but this doesn’t even have to do with that. Therefore I really suggest these animals get attack they can use while moving. At least their autoattack.

If any1 else has a solution, idea or anything else he/she would like to comment, please tell me. Right now I am kinda moving away from the class and it could just prevent that.

Thanks, Fvux.

in sylvari starting area, where you help sylvian hounds

you used to be able to turn into a hound. and attack on the move
but your “pet” hound can’t do that.
it sucks =(

They added the staff and back-drop stuff only a month ago… It may have been in flux, but if they’re going to get this thing out the door, they don’t have time for trash cans anymore. They’ve already begun the artwork on it, which is quite a bit more resource intensive than making up mock-abilities and toying around with ideas.

Sorry, friend, but at this point, it’s pretty safe to just assume you’ll get staff. They’re already behind schedule and have clearly been on the track of staff VERY recently.

This reminds me of the time they said Ele wasn’t going to get Warhorn…
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/elementalist/Tempest-Warhorn-confirmed-Feedback-merged/first

what i want theif to get: rifle
what i doubt theif will get: staff
what i THINK thief is going to get: something related to kunai, possibly a weapon kit.

also, behind schedule?
thief was supposed to launch with rifle. there was even alot of advertised concept art with it.
datamining showed rifle skills in the beta client

but when game launched, no rifle. it was forgotten and the skills had dissapeared from client (flux for ya)

considerign concept art was made, i think schedule is more in favor of the originally planned weapon xD

ranger is getting staff…so no thief wont be getting it.

Both Elementalist and Necromancer got Shouts. Exclusivity isn’t an argument. I’ve actually never read or heard anything from Arenanet saying that 2 Elite Specialisations can’t get the same weapon.

skills are one thing

i mean weapon

“until we announce it, like on our website or to you guys directly, its all up in flux”
so yes you datamined a thief with a staff
but that doesnt mean it gets a staff.
rifle theif isn’t dead yet. not until they announce what it will be.
why did i post this? cause i’m tired of people saying “its definitely staff”
no proof till they announce it.

opps wrong thread

before people say fishing is to lazy

i was enjoying this mission SO MUCH

Professor Gorr is great! specially when he talks about what apprentices are for

but every time Traeharne opened his mouth, all the joy DIED.

why couldn’t Traeharne have SHUT UP and let me enjoy this.

the mission was literally ruined because he had to talk.

In other hand, we got repetition of profession skill – Shouts.
In other hand, trough the ele warhorn we got confirmed that those ascended skins datamined are the elite specs weapons skins. There was a glint shield there, and a pole staff there. This is 2 repeated profession weapons right there.
In other hand, Seens like the chances of thief getting pole staff, actually rose to 90%.

In Other hand, Staff thief seens much more amazing than WH ele. Don’t complain, or I’ll curse you to get a off hand torch.

Seriously this. Imagine a melee AoE thief class focused on martial arts. Melee staff could have some amazing animations worked in with the most acrobatic class in the game (even has a traitline named for that too!). Maybe Thief will get stances? Martial arts commonly have different offensive/defensive stances that allow for more efficient combat.

if so then theif’s sword would have ranger sword animations
as ranger’s sword is light on feet and agile. like acrobatics.
theif sword is NOT acrobatic but fits a warrior more than an acrobat…

….oh god….if the theif elite proff is a martial arts class and (in addition to staff) they give it the ranger’s sword animation to further fill the “acrobatic theme” i’d actually be happy!
