All professions that currently have a successful support spec also have two core trait lines that go well with it. The only healer traits I could find on Thief are [shadow Savior](https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Shadow_Savior) and the rez trait. While thief does have plenty traits providing healing, all of them are selfish.

bruh...http://dnd5e.wikidot.com/monk:shadow oh yeah...stealth, shadow casting monk of darkness

everyday, every hour ill get about 5 seconds of lag then everything catches up, this is in fractals or whatever wherever i am. my party experiences it as well (even without me in the party)

what about being transgender? Sounds descriminatory already as you dont allow men inside regardless of their support for women.

Elite Contract Killers [EcK] are an **all thief** WvW roaming/havoc squad guild that will play both PvE and WvW content on the Darkhaven Server.

WE are currently recruiting people on Darkhaven (DH) / Free to play accounts that WILL eventually upgrade then transfer to Darkhaven once its open.

**KEEP IN MIND WE ARE REBUILDING, TESTING NEW BUILDS, AND HELPING THE BABY PLAYERS LEARN. **

**A bit about us:**

Over 5 Years ago, under Varlen in WFD on Borlis Pass server, Lithril Ashwalker & Varlen coordinated a 50 man Thief squad in WvW in EBG. We managed to get from one end of the map to the other undetected and all that was seen was 1 red enemy smoke combo field, We ganked a few groups of enemies and flipped SMC as well as a few towers. While we may not currently have the numbers for an all thief zerg/havoc squad, we will however take up "contract" with current coordinated guilds within VoIPs to stealth, pinsnipe and harass as well as flip.

The guild name soon changed to what it is now in honor of a friend that passed away during a gaming session. The roster was and is being rebuilt and is now recruiting for core members to join us on Darkhaven. It's tough since Thief is ostracized however. So Recruiters are very much welcome!

Thieves have the most access and lowest cooldown combo fields / finishers to consistently re-stealth a group via initiative. Thief has downsides right now compared to engineers, guardians etc because they cannot provide necessary boons to survive a head on attack; Engineers have Purity of Purpose, Guardians have their buffs, mesmers have their aoe pulls and larger portals as well as revenants having high access to stability. For those reasons we wont necessarily only _**RUN**_ all thieves, but only recruit them. Knowing this we are going to "latch" and form latch groups for other non thieves to fulfull required roles. **_Disclaimer: We are not going to be a usual comp however we are going to be a specialized group that will be able to take on larger groups as a backup group for other guilds and groups as a support group or flip keeps. It will be unlikely that we attack head on like normal comp groups._** All recruits are groomed to be the best thief/class they can and everyone here will show you tricks, tips, resources to become better. Our main focus however is gimmicky builds that can and will work and fun within the thief theme.

What we have accomplished so far given our current numbers in the guild:

Invented the Shadow Squad concept

Infiltrate SMC and destroy Siege

Scout and follow zerg for team recon

Gank small threats

Basic camp/tower flipping

Tower camping under enemy noses to reflip in our favor

Smuggle Siege Golems

Permanently Stealthed 10 people inside towers as well as Stone Mist Castle to flip when coast was clear

Organized A Permanently stealthed 50 non thief zerg over 5 years ago.

Mass stealthed the [DoC](Dolyaks of Chaos) guild for a successful zerg bust. ~~TY GUCCI/Shroomy~~

**Kiza** top 45 thief in NA with his higher ranked friends has joined our ranks to assist in training/tips to help groom those new to the game and wishing to brush up on their skills. Kiza has close relations with Caed, Aikijinx etc. Would be a waste to not learn from this master!

Our goals:

Gank squads

Better Build Creation

Working on Condition Comps

Zerg Busting Comps

More Recruits

Find a dedicated streamer/youtuber to advertise our guild and show our footage

Intro Video for recruitment

Train the new players/thieves

TBD

so can mesmers as well as permastealth mesmers. you are just whining about thief to whine about thief, nothing constructive.

Any boon stolen should apply to allies as a CLASS mechanic...THIS would make stuff so much easier

Honestly If there was a new class mechanic of stealing boons to apply to allies nearby you that would be epic...replace bountiful theft then. convert it to Boons you apply to allies last longer, gain an extra amount of concentration for 30s when you steal.

d/d ? you know Shadowshot is a shadowstep.... d/p

as a new elite specialization yes, but thief has a low healing coefficient so it wont work as well. Nurse Ninja got nerfed years ago, the one with the Mercy runes, so its not good anymore along with the shadow arts changes

sitting in game for 3 days and not one time is the High Wizard up at the nexus at steps of arah for my HOPE collection. This is absurd...undead need to be more vicious or update it where Karka swim over to destroy everything and let the wizard take over!

must really suck considering the bugs in this game...oh well :/ how does it feel to have things not work for you effectively or not intentionally? *spit*

> You **remove** the entire stack. Removing 25 might stacks from your target in PvP is pretty darn good.

but you get 1stack back. what did i do? drop the other 24 while running away ?

First off, Im putting the game down and probably gonna play more and more seldom due to this. This game was to have best at, not best. Due to changes in the class itself it brings hardly anything to a wvw zerg group. I'm belittled, laughed at and have a hard time trying to organize specific things regarding thief...all because everything does it better and the only thing a thief can do is maybe 2 builds that have no place in a zerg or squad comp. To be bullied based off my preferred class and to be shunned is just as bad as politics but in gw2.

The balance team knows nothing of thief but they make half-arsed changes to a class that always becomes the whipping boy. Bountiful Theft is a laughing joke and only removes a full 25 stack of might but returns it to your allies and yourself with...1 stack, hardly bountiful, the evasive traits are also a joke as 300s and no one is going to take that long cooldown trait. The class is unfortunately literally useless in a group setting outside of PvE.

I'm done, ill probably log in to help people learn the game but I wont be buying the next expansion or anything from the gemstore again until something gives EVENLY for ALL classes where thief can actually be relevant back to the prior staff pre-nerfs at LEAST.

1 stack of any boon... 1...not the 25 stacks of might you ripped off, it turns to 1...smh, read up bro.

[bountiful Theft](https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Bountiful_Theft) right now only steals 1 stack at a fixed duration despite being "bountiful." Why has it always been this way? This is why thieves cant have nice things...

I bring up the age old suggestion to make bountiful theft steal full stacks AND durations to fit the trait and to buff thief.

So you are going to make an overlay that calls out the next button for you to press? sounds interesting if its not bannable. Id get a red post comment on it before you release anything just to be safe. What ive been doing is taking images of rotations for my revenant on dhuum. I take images of the skills i need to press in ORDER per rotation and put them in sequence...all done in an image file. Here is an example of what i did: [https://imgur.com/1MQxCUS](https://imgur.com/1MQxCUS)

id go windowed fullscreen and drag the screen to where i could just see my rotation, doing this also got me more frames during dhuum

> One simple thing they could do to increase participation is to add better rewards to the commendation vendors. Like mystic coins or other useful stuff. At the moment there are almost no decent consumable rewards that players will always need more of.

completely agree. its lack of rewards that are worth it.

Hello everyone, I've been trying to recruit for a rebuilding roster guild for over a year now but it seems that no one wants to really join unless they are new, already have a guild because they've been in the game for a while, or just want to not associate themselves due to a weird bug in wvw to hide themselves as a target. I personally feel that those that have joined have no incentive to want to do guild missions anymore because the majority of the rewards are lackluster and people can get them anyway or something very much better at cheaper prices for either laurels, fractals rewards or wvw and pvp...no one wants to do guild missions with each other anymore for a measly rare & 1 commendation from a bouncy chest. Instead of having to save up commendations and gold people could potentially go do LS or pvp and even WvWvW to get the ascended ring/trinket they desire.

is there any hope or plans to make guild events worth doing again or am I probably just going to have to disband and uninstall the game in exchange for a more "cared for" game?

I have a mandalorian outfit cosplay on gw2 style :3

how? you reveal them or make them drain initiative...or let arenanet continue to nerf them into the ground, they kill thieves pretty easily

bugged still.

I am trying to make a full thief zerg team comp build (mixed builds within thief only) to make a specialized zerg that doesnt go headlong into battle, but more or less as an aid or gank group like a very large havoc squad. So far i have a few tests i would like to test in Spvp lobby on cluster golems (there really isnt anywhere else where clustered high health mobs are)

if interested. Mail me in game. i will need about 10 to start out. this may be a daily testing.
