Guild Wars 2

I’m with you. D/D thief is the only class I enjoy playing. It’s the only reason I came back tot he game. I started with an elementalist and just did not like the lack of synergy the class offered. If they nerf the kittens out of thieves I’m not going to play anymore either.

Dunning-Kruger effect. Look it up. Then stop the QQ fest plz.

You needlessly nerf the thief and I’m done with this game.

Kihre I am also from Wisconsin and I play a thief. I have a guild with a rl friend as well. There’s only two of us as of now but I am going to start trying to find more members. Let me know if you are interested.

There is also the short bow 5 slot ability that allows you shadow step a pretty good distance. He could of pop’d it and then changed weapons and opened his burst on you.

In order for a thief to pull of the backstab combo they usually start with basilisk then cloak and dagger, then must immediately steal then after c/d hits pop their signet and then run around and backstab. If you counter any one of these moves you pretty much get a free kill. Glass cannon is a glass cannon for a reason…

wrong thread. Try the Guild thread.

Watch this to get an idea of what I am talking about.

Without getting to winded I can say pretty plainly. You are looking at it wrong.

You need to switch in and out of attunments depending on the situation. Elementalist have an extremely high level of mobility and survivability if you do it right. I usually start out in earth to gain bleed and to lay Eruption down. I then switch to fire and drop a lava font to gain 3 stacks of might. From there if I need to get away I can switch to air and drop my 4 spell which grants quickness and then lay a static field if I need the stun. I can also switch back to earth by now and lay my 4 spell which is rock wall, cant remember the name. I can use my 6 spell to heal or switch to water. I can use my heals from there and I can also lay my 4 spell which takes quickness away from my opponent. That is just one example. Again each situation requires you to be attuned to different elements. That is the beauty of being an elementalist. The draw back is that you have to do a lot more work to get the same amount of benefit as other classes.

I like to have a lot of traits in arcanebecause I can switch through my attunments faster. I stack the rest of my points in water, earth and air. I dont need fire. I do enough damage but I am really support. I have a lot of great combo fields that I can drop and then switch attunments and use the combo finishers. That is where my damage comes from.

Most of the time you can’t even get into AC in the first place. You click to join your party and nothing happens. Or you try and go in by yourself and you cant.

Is there any update on this bug yet?

Awesome. Are you on Sorrow’s Furnace?

Has there been more strides in optimizing lately? I was barely able to get 20 fps yesterday and then I log on today and I’m getting around 45-50. In Rata Sum I’m still only getting in the teens but its still an improvement.
