I can't bother with these threads anymore. If you got "one shot instantly" by a DE, log off, create a Thief, buy a white Rifle, go in the PvP lobby, Spec DE and hit dummies. I promise you that if the first 2 keys you press are 5 (Kneel) then 4 (Death's Judgement), you'll find the experience enlightening.

 

Signed : A disgruntled Deadeye who went back to Daredevil out of frustration of having to deal with how much setup DE requires to do any kind of relevant damage in a game where "Condi-burst" is somehow a thing and much more effective at doing what my spec is supposed to do (which is nuke priority targets).

This guy is great I like how he qued the theme to rocky. Plus he's d/d that was one of my favorite builds to run in vanilla gw2 would kill all kinds of d/ps on d/d.

Theoretically zerker war can one shot targets with low HP pool (when all stars line up).

 

As for topic, thank you for laugh, OP. DE is probably easiest thing to kill atm. Ofc it will kill something at some point if you don't focus them (same applies for rifle war kek).

WvW slaughter cannot be used as argument for sPvP because skill gap between them is huge.

In WvW people just run into each other and die almost instantly while in sPvP there are gritty fights for your life that can go for several minutes.

 

Any class with stealth/gap closer/long range attack can deal with deadeye. I run my version of core condi mesmer and stopped dying to deadeye after a while, and now i just sneak on him sniping, pump him full of torment and confusion and wait a bit until he goes down.
