TheThiefMaster.3812 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Just started playing the game again after a 3 years break so i'm lost. From what i gathered so far it seems that S/D isn't good anymore, well at least not Meta for thieves but still it's the only set i truly enjoy so.

whoknocks.4935 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 For WvW solo roaming sd thief is still a pretty solid choice. Core sd if you face a lot of other sd thieves due to 1200 range steal. If not daredevil sd is a thing, deadly trickery and daredevil. Running daredevil now steal is replaced by swipe, which is an unblockable steal version but only has 600 range. Dp thief is the ever green roamer which lately is running the reworked shadow arts traitline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddie.5861 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 trickery the usual thing DA 2 1 2 DrD 1 or 2 / 2 / 2 think i have exotic thief with pretty much full zerk gear(think it has 3 parts marauder) on divinity runes which seems to be the way to go on s/d for cheap ass build ;) with these 2 quickness sigils rage and Celerity i believe (yes theres better out there but i enjoy the quickness) tbh s/d thief is still as good as it was before at roaming.

Psycoprophet.8107 Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Also keep in mind that acro was replaced by DD in pvp die to the 2x traits getting hammered by the 300 cd idiocy but in wvw where ur roaming and can more often than not control when to engage with no time restrictions the 300cd is less hampering and are still useful, wasnt often ud be in the same fight long enough to proc them twice anyway.

Shiyo.3578 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Base thief is not good, unblockable steal is too powerful to give up. S/D is completely useless vs d/p thieves and does very bad damage so it isn't recommended, but if you really want to play it... http://gw2skills.net/editor/?PawAwiVlNw6YXsNGJOMXntUA-zVJYkh/EU4A-w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
