Cool, but one of these skills should also cause Reveal on hit so thief can finally kill other thieves, mesmers and rangers.

They can keep an anti projectile wall up for what seems like 25% of the time, in addition to their other slew of blocks and evasions BUT so can virtuoso they’re both pretty obnoxious. Paradoxyglanis is still a 🐛 in a 🐦 🪺, this doesn’t change that fact.

This isn’t world of Warcraft. Dungeon and dragon rules do work that way, but they have no reveal timer between stealth’s. Would you prefer that?

Seems to be you’ve lost every 1 v 1 you’ve attempted on every build you can play, which also lets be real is only 1… and middling tier at that. Regardless, Holosmith is much more concerning than guardian or thief in any form currently. See I’m not saying anything about Ele. 😂

Engi is currently the most broken class in the game. Another instance of the pot calling the kettle black. Check your privileges sir.

Go play a thief yourself in ranked pvp and post your win/loss over 20 matches. We’ll take you seriously depending on how that turns out. I’ll wait.

Do you even realize what you’re saying LOL

I’m not sure if you’re avoiding mentioning engineer on purpose or not - regardless, they also have on demand stealth, AND the most passive and broken Reveal in the entire game. Every 10 seconds you will be hit with a reveal from engi. Think about that, stealth into auto reveal after an attack is 4 seconds. So any stealth burst gets off one attack, before engi can force reveal by doing damage to the thief and typically that’s through non specific AOE. So not only does this BLOAT go against everything you said above, but it’s also used in literally every engi meta build in the game right now to counter anything that stealths.

You won’t ever be competitive, so why even bother? 🤷‍♂️

Not trying to see more cheesy condi engis running around with pistols and mace shield or rifle. No thank you.

💯 Engineer. What other class can 100-0 the tankiest class + amulet with One burst (Defense Demolisher warrior) WHILE having full block/reflect, permanent CC chains, blinds, ranged AOE, and passive reveal for you Mesmer thief players out there.. and then superspeed away to the other side of the field and do it all over again? Engineer base #’s And DPS modifiers are left unchecked.

They need a role selector when queuing for ranked just like Overwatch. Tank can be equivalent to support due to lack of players. But there should never be 5 side noders or 3 healers on one team. Let us pick roles! Also, get rid of duos in ranked and lock classes on load in so now more counter speccing. Force people to play the class they que on.

Have you tried pressing the W key? Seriously you can outrun them without any effort. Look at any gold or low platinum player, they literally spam ranged and W.

It does affect combat, it affects the entire time you’re in HOTM.

Aegis CAN be cleared from range, the issue that you’re neglecting to mention (you probably don’t even realize) has nothing to do with aegis itself and more with the Shield Master changes that needed to happen when the CD was increased on this trait, so they widened the reflect range via any block (aegis included) in general which is why bladesworn has tons of reflect if they go Defense which not all bladesworn players do. I wish it was this simple of an explanation for the problems that exist with Holosmith/Scrapper or other projectile hate classes right now.
