Skullsox.9162

it just feels so slow and clunky, also why is it so devoid of magic, these skills are so boring looking . It does okay but idk why i would take pistol over the scepter if can do the same or better dmg in half the time..

I don't hate it but, it needs to be sped up i feel like engi rifle pre-rework, slow, clunky and it is kinda boring...devoid of magic ironically. Also its kinda weak at least from all the testing ive been doing, it can be alright but scepter will out do it in half the time so....

Man, another meh balance for thief , I guess you can RP better now? Anet just has no clue what to do with thief . Guess I'll just keep my thief main shelfed....again

I wouldn't mind a AOE focused Thief with like a greatsword.

So I was in the hopes that anet saw the feedback and would at least give shadowmeld something else to offset the reveal nerf. As it is now its a joke of an "elite skill" in any competitive setting , what are your thoughts on it ?

Personally I think it'll be more of a clown show, ridiculous unbalanced metas, match making still being about as atrocious as ever , and the population still declining making match making worse. I for one am most likely quiting pvp just unbelievably unfun. Been kinda hoping for anet to really care about the pvp community but the message is clear.

No no we need a super mega giant attack that has a super visible tell and cost all initiative, ohj and cause Were thiefs it's single target 🫠

I said this on the preview thread but if you guys really want to take out reveal , at least hive us a projectile reflect or a block like arcane shield and idk have the ammo be the amount of blocks something to make it viable.

Great changes but shadow meld cant be considered an elite skill if it doesn't remove reveal now, it's just blinding powder with none of the benefits of blinding power. Add protection , aegis ,block , projectile reflect ....something to make it "elite " me personally I'd love a reflection or block kinda like arcane shield.

Only anet would reduce the range of a sniper and call it a buff lol. That's rough, way to make sure no one wants to play deadeye again.

So is thief like a true preview cause....what did they do to it besides nerf deadeye after finally being viable?

When they said buff they really meant "same same but diffrent". Idk just feels like they don't really want us to play thief.
