lujate 578 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 This build is out-of-date and is here for reference only. I had not intended to post this build because I do not think it is good enough. I had a request though, so here it is. http://gw2buildcraft.com/calculator/thief/?7.0|c.1p.h1.8.1p.h8|a.1o.he.a.1o.h1|1g.a1.1g.a1.1g.a1.1g.a1.1g.a1.1g.a1|1p.61.1p.61.21k.0.1p.61.1p.61.cg.67|0.k6a.k14.k39.a3|56.8|57.5a.5b.5g.5w|e My Thief got hit hard by the big nerf and fully never recovered. That being said, she did earn herself a brace of TA pistols and a suit of CoF armor. I can honestly say that I believe she performs equal to, or better than, the majority of PUG's we run with. Of course, I feel that every other one of my L80's can perform better with less effort on my part. Sword: #1. Bread-and-butter attack #2. This is a 2 part skill. Always keep the first up, since the second serves as a stun-breaker. #3. Flanking Strike is the sole reason I kept OH dagger after the nerf. It hits twice, so make sure not to interrupt yourself with another skill or dodge (you can move). Dagger: #4. Use for tagging multiple mobs... That is about it. #5. Used defensively for a condition removal or stealth escape. Pistols (Since thieves have no inherent benefit from weapon swapping, these are mostly used in boss fights that I cannot melee): #1. Spam this while waiting for #2 #2. Stacks 5 vulnerability per hit. This is why I use the Sigil of Peril. #3. This is fun, but for serious work stick with #2 & #1. #4 & 5. I never use them. Utility: #7. Increased precision #8. For condition removal and stealth escapes #9. Used in dungeons only for stealth revives. For open world PvE, I use Assassin's Signet for increased Power, which ups my Effective Power by 155. Elite: I like Thieve's Guild. Some people prefer Dagger Storm, but I find the two thieves to be quite valuable for the extra damage and to pull some aggro. Link to comment
Popular Post Dobri 55 Posted April 29, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted April 29, 2013 Well, I did that request. I simply think we should all share our builds. No matter whether they are good or not, there is always something to learn from them. And I really think you give yourself far too little credit 2 Link to comment
