Psycoprophet.8107 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Just wondering how u guys are making out as brawlers. Have u guys found DD to be a viable brawler and if so what builds have u been having success with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jugglemonkey.8741 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Honestly I haven't played DD since the changes as I feel I have basically no incentive to do so over core or deadeye, and the only DD players I've seen in WvW have been playing D/P bound going for one shots. Sword thieves I've seen are almost exclusively playing core, I've seen the odd condi daredevil and staff is even less common than it was, oddly enough.

Chobis.8713 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 You can go with DD using crits+evading for killing or as a support with conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ensign.2189 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 It still works more or less the same in a mid to large scale fight with a staff in WvW. Doesn't have anywhere near the gas it would need to mix it up with Rev / Scourge / Firebrand in sPvP or to threaten the duelists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alatar.7364 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 In sPvP; It's not. Only vs less skilled players, but hell, what doesn't work vs less skilled player... _(talking about Staff here as I believe that was intended for bralwer purposes by devs)_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kash.9213 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 I'm mostly floating around WvW so there's different size fights and inconsistent skill. I like Swindlers with s/d and shortbow and ?-3-3 DrD, it feels natural and is adaptive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So from now on i wont argue about theif at all. My interest was lost due to excesive drinking today and severe sleep deprivation. BUT I promise i will not continue to argue with you ppl since it anyway makes no sense and it is pointless like A CIRCLE Example = O SEE NO EDGE That is not for me I need to be Edgy. That is my flow guys. YEA. I m gonna go back to PvP to play at my ridiculous 50000k ping (yea i litelarry had that today) hoping i hit anything and if not i will proceede with standardtized procedure such as cursing out loud smashing my table and then having another glass.

I didn't say, nor do I think, that someones specific build is also not working. I myself do not like Condi-Thief, even though I like condi builds, so I don't speak for condi-DD-perspective because I don't play it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foste.3098 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Staff does not work for any pvp mode because of 2 reasons: Lack of gap closers; vault does not count as it has limited range, is stopped by verticality, and has high initiative so you cannot repeatedly gap close to targets that are kiting. And clunky skills such as weakening charge which is slow and randomly sometimes stops in place and dust strike which can be avoided by quickly spaming the strafing keys. Outside staff s/p works really well for pvp/wvw but most players seam to refuse to acknowledge the power of the build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leo Schrodingers Cat.2497 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Not really. It still has the same problems as before. Nothing changed except for steal encouraging bad habbits of sticking close Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
