Do evade frames, blinds, ports and interrupts not count? Or is it the _timing_ part you have an issue with? I think those are far more crucial and thematically satisfying to thief's gameplay than stealth is. aside from shadowsteps, none are nearly as important as stealth

Although I did defeat the thief in both fights, I think its pretty clear that the thief lost almost by choice. What I mean is, the thief is able to reset over and over trying to get a burst. At the same time, on Mirage my clones run around and almost never actually make contact. The actual kill on the thief is very short using confusion, which is NOT easy. Most of the time these fights go to the thief. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Exactly 10 minutes into the video my fight with a d/p DD starts.

It seems to me like it shows that even against Thieves best matchup by a wide margin, condi mesmer (Plasma is OP), the thief had absolutely no hope of ever killing you. The best he could do is run away and survive, and if he stayed to fight, he would always have died, as he did in the end. And thats even against a player *clicking* their skills, which is highly inefficient to the point of giving the thief a massive advantage he usually wont have in a fight. Now of course, this is in WvW, not sPvP, so thieves advantage of being the fastest decapper and +1er is non-existent, and yeah, thief isnt any good in WvW, hence why despite the inherent popularity of rogue classes, nowadays you dont see a lot of thieves in WvW. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > ___ > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > various thief players screaming frantically to explain how losing 3/4 times in a row but being basically unpunished 'cause of the hundred thousand save-my-butt buttons (_which they claim *DO NOT* exist_) is balanced, healthy, cool and overall requires thief to be buffed 'cause come on, being able to reset whenever you lose is not enough, you need to be able to deal a kitten ton of damage too > > > > > > > > > ____ > > > > > > > > > > Thief is a class with a high skill cap but an absolute kitten pepega took 2:30 minutes of pounding before he finally went down, making mistakes that on any other class would have been instadeath; the guy got killed by absolute chance > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I wish I could play the easy mode too but I don't like thief :( > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I get the feeling you replied to the wrong thing?

Damn, nobody can show that thief is ridiculously OP. That's wild.

Shoutout to when no thieves are in the top 250 of that and everybody begins to question why

I would seriously bet that meta thief isn't superior, the thief player is just better. I used to be a hardcore top 100 player every season that played 400-500 games a season, but now I just casually play and i'm currently at 60 games this season. I beat holo and DH players in my gold games, but it isn't because thief is better than them. I simply know the tricks to kill them because I've fought a lot of them and I've fought the best of them. Going into gold and killing some average holos and DHs is lightwork, but if the holo/DH was on my level or better then they would utterly destroy me. That's how simple it is. PvP in GW2 functions like multi-dimensional rock, paper, scissors. The thing is that the second dimension is skill factoring in and so while DH and Holo were designed and are even currently maintained to counter thief-- the difference in experience factors in greatly.

Thief has the best mobility in the game, huge stealth durations, big damage, CC, unblckable CC, unblockable damage, blind, aoe 5k bursts, damage reduction, condi remove, 2 stunbreaks in 1 skill, teleports. Are you saying this is isnt feasible? The fact you can get 2.7k range from shortbow 5 spam to escape is fine? I wouldve nerfed thief shortbow harder than this but EVERY high tier player within the development discord agreed that it was too much and im fairly sure that this opinion is correct. You could try to chase but oh wait shortbow 5, kitten i cant catch up.. then another.. and another then stealth. But oh wait hes back where he started again.

Become good at it and try to understand its value and sheer stupidity of the busted mechanics that the class has before asserting a kitten opinion based off 0 evidence.

Please don't even float around the idea of a heartseeker initiative increase before one of our only 3 decent skills gets nerfed.

Buffs across the board because PvP is ridiculous garbage now.

Darren is a top 100 player. He knows how to play thief I've dueled him many times, and I share his disdain for people that think thief is OP... It's ghost of it's former self...all the fun sucked dry from all weapons...all traits... > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > if he was more op .. doesnt mean its weak now.. you can not compare to what it was but to the builds you have currently ! > > > its like speaking about spell breaker.. how op it was . and look now? or scourge? but its not how to think about it.. the fact is thief is still meta.. daredevil is still very strong class and im sorry you disagree. but thief dont need to have super mobility and still be able to kill every class.. > > > > The thing is, Thief isn't killing every class. Thief is another class that faces counters and weaknesses from multiple other professions. The easiest way to kill thief is literally one of the dozens of skills that forces a thief into revealed, however people don't have enough brain cells to bring those anymore usually, they just complain when a thief goes into stealth. I can think of 100 different counters for thief, but if you don't ever play it then you'll never discover them. We die in 2 hits, but you sure don't see us asking for more vitality or toughness. We just want these nerfs to stop and to see some added damage because our current damage is rather pitiful. > > then ill say it again.. the issue i have with thieves is stealth... and unless stealth is finally reworked.. thieves are problem.. > and sorry not every class/build can have reveal .. if they give every class a decent reveal skills eyah i wont have problem with thieves dont get me wrong i dont want to see thieves as bad class.. i want rework for steralth :) What class do you play?

In the coming days i'll write about this nerf, but until then. This balance patch and balance team are garbage.

> @"Dahkeus.8243" said: > The inf nerf will certainly hurt thieves, but I don't see it actually changing anything in the way of what builds thieves run or what class is preferred for roaming for the most part. > > There's still no class that has mobility like thief, even with less inf arrow casts. There's still no better weapon swap for the best builds because the mobility is still amazing. It's also still a very strong weapon for its other skills. > > I can't say that I entirely agree with this nerf, but I think it's one of those nerfs that people will forget about for the most part in a few months since it's not likely to shift the meta much. It just gives non-thieves a bit more chance to stay in line with rotations or prevent decaps. Combine infiltrator's nerf with the signet of agility, and thief is a free kill.

Oh wow, this guy has a life during a worldwide pandemic. Who else is amazed? Just admit you're in over your head and lost the conversation instead of trying to be hyper-aggressive again, little buddy.
