yea this is very very annoying, totally a gamebreaker for me in pvp. I cant play ranger right now
For 1v1 with a thief, which is rare the higher you go in rating, i usually just bait the thief.
I sometimes let them interrupt me with headshot on purpose so he thinks im stupid. Then i pop my heal and stow it and dodge to bait his steal. if he misses steal and i get damage in, most of the time they go somewhere else unless they very low skilled.
When u want to pop heals and other utilities with long cast times use terrain to block his line of sight(when his steal is on cooldown) or use stability/magnetic aura/shocking aura before it, this should be normal behaviour as any good player wants to interrupt important skills and will try to.
But unfortunately this is normally not the case, most of the time you fight other player and thief comes to +1, he can stand aside and just 4 4 4 4 you when you fight other player, not the best thing to do as a thief but sure he can.
How u counter this? well you should know a thief will come to your fight if it takes long, so keep an eye open on the look out for him, and when he comes quickly go to a spot where he cant teleport/steal you and try and sustain untill he leaves, or find a way to disengage the fight without dieing. dont try and keep the point at all cost.
Can you maybe tell us whats going on in your matches, do you win all your 1v1s but the rest wipes, do you rush far, or others rush far and die, do you camp points or others while no enemy. Where does it go wrong, first mid fight? Maybe you can record some stuff so ppl can point out what you can do to carry matches to victory.
if you would like to give some detail about that in the mesmer match up. for instance i always have my pet passive so it attacks the real mesmer but im not sure if thats a smart thing to do.
Also i’d like to know if there is a way i can prevent the f2 from totally missing target.
thanks in advance
THanks for posting this, just a question upfront, can you maybe explain the reasoning for the wyvern pet in particular in the match up vs mesmer.
