Good video man. When I see people saying "thief is so bad it's unplayable", no you are just bad and you can only play thief well when he is on meta and extremly overpower. I do agree it needs some buffs but it's steal pretty good.
This is so funny. Just two hours ago, I've read Reddit thread where people were complaining *immensely* about Thief, that it's ultra overpowered because they can't kill it and so on. It was posted at the same time as your comment. Over the years that I played my Thief, or at least kind of followed GW2, it got nerfed *so often.* But really good players (not me) always found some way to make it work. To outplay others. While I suffered, people were on the forums asking for more nerfs because, "everything that doesn't lose against me is OP." And on that Reddit thread, everyone who voiced a dissenting opinion, no matter how thorough they presented their arguments, got downvoted into Oblivion. They literally said Thief should lose its stealth and blinds. If it keeps stealth, every other spec should get a reveal that's not counterable. Delusional.
i’ve had trouble finding an answer and testing it my self, but, if you have the first cast of shadow step and trigger improvisation on shadow step, does that remove the the port origin and recharge the utility? or does it remove the cd w/o taking the 2nd cast
You can stack stealth so multiple casts are combine into a long one. For example, you can lay down a smoke field with pistol 5, then switch to shortbow and blast the smoke field with its tp2, cluster bomb. Before the smoke field disappears, you can get a maximum of 3 cluster bombs out if you're fast enough. This means triple the invis duration for everyone who stands in that field. Superb for teamfight initiation.
because if any other class does a plus 1 then they take too long to do so, its not efficient to plus 1 as a necro because if you dont get the kill you waste so much time in transit, mobility is the reason why
Are u ruby yet, my man? I came back to gw2 thx to expansion and i enjoy my staff thief a lot XP. But is pvp dead tho? i Saw last season top ppl were with 30 games only in eu.
Its so weird that no thief in pvp plays like this. They all just run around on SA trying to duel and chase even at high levels. This build feels thief the most!
We take damage easily ofc we finna need to dodged half the powered things other classes throw at us we not finna just run straight into you no type of defense what is this live feedings.
I think stealth classes are in nearly no competitive game "the easiest". It's a super good skill okay...a lot of people tend to play it as well but nonetheless u gotta be good for your team and utilise this. There is the point where most thief suffer.
No it takes skills we don't naturally rely on pets like rangers no illusions like mesmers orr traps nd defense like guardians all we have is shadows and teleport and yall mad because we use it ? Yall want us to be a non assassin thief we'd just be like a engineer loll
And the fact that guild wars started passing out teleports and invisibility to other classes aswell so they can shut up is hilarious I mean rangers can teleport now if that's the case where's my pet a thief gets lonely yk
that support for the ranger with the shadowstep headshot on the thief holy shit, happens in the blink of an eye
I just love Vallun. His voice is so smoothing :3
His voice is really Nice
@@fistandantilos okay

that shadowstep headshot on the thief was insane!
I love playing the dagger dagger build
Man I JUST started playing deadly arts sword/dagger DD

Just found your channel and loving the pvp content mate / commentary, subbed :)
I would choose a different stun break than blinding powder but I guess its about the playstyle of each
A simple question, what kind of new Elite spec you shoud like to see for thief in End of Dragon ? Kind of curious about your meaning about that !
go check out my elite specs specualtion video
480 p video quality?
I'm a beginner at thief pvp why at the beginning did you cluster bomb yourself and team ?
blast finisher in my smoke field for stealth
How come your stealth lasts pretty long?
You can stack stealth so multiple casts are combine into a long one.

I gotta ask... Why is thiefs role to supplement... When evey other class has better damage outputs and can essentially in plus 1?
because if any other class does a plus 1 then they take too long to do so, its not efficient to plus 1 as a necro because if you dont get the kill you waste so much time in transit, mobility is the reason why
@@Vallun would you rather thief be able to be a better duelist than they currently are? Or they arr fine where they are compared to everything else?
At the start of the match, how do cluster bomb stealth four times? I've always managed to only do 3... please enlighten me! XD
one is a blinding powder
@@Vallun @3.56 min mark of video, unless I am blind, I counted 4 stealths and you didn't use blinding powder. Have I missed something? XD
@@yenyab9350 looks like one of my allies blasted it
@@Vallun Oic. Nice video btw! :)
Are u ruby yet, my man? I came back to gw2 thx to expansion and i enjoy my staff thief a lot XP. But is pvp dead tho? i Saw last season top ppl were with 30 games only in eu.
I wish they would bring back P/P ricochet
vallun why do you hate zerker amulet
i hate having condis on me is the decision, taking marauder scholar allows me to take the condi cleanse trait on evade
when i go sword/dagger i dont get the same abilitys as u
Nevermind ur using pistol, but is Double daggers any good?
@@iKidBuu they are good but it's harder to get in and get out of fights quickly imo.
I never done pvp, started playing the game not long ago, I'm scared to join and ruin the game for my team, any suggestion on how to start? ;)
watch my roles and rotations guide playlist, figure out which build you want to play, and try to adhere loosely to one of those 4 roles
Its so weird that no thief in pvp plays like this. They all just run around on SA trying to duel and chase even at high levels. This build feels thief the most!
Yeah ok. Scholar rune... Did you notice your health is almost always below 90% ? But the video is good and the gameplay intelligible.
that was some hard carry
Like watching art
you can't get kills without your allies me taking 2x handguns
These names tho 😂
nice, but the customer support has been down for the last 3 months
Sadly u cant compete with shadow arts, nothing can when u talk about thief and his roles
Damage oriented? You mean condi oriented? Been condi meta for years
guide? for what? all u need to know - spam stealth for win
All you do is complain guess what tho other classes is getting invisibility aswell and teleport happy now or you still finna spam complaints 😂
We take damage easily ofc we finna need to dodged half the powered things other classes throw at us we not finna just run straight into you no type of defense what is this live feedings.
Do people really need a guide for Thief now? literally the easiest most busted class ever
