You're taking the thief profession's name too literally it seems. The profession isn't a criminal profession; it's easily possible to be honorable, and there will be scouts in armies that use that profession too. After all, there were Eternals of all sorts of professions, even necromancers and mesmers - the later of which is defined by trickery. "Honor in battle" isn't defined by the tools you have, but how you use them. You should also learn Zafirah's backstory which explains why she's a deadeye, and how she joined the Zaishen order. Where have I stated that Thief/Deadeye is a criminal profession? I fail to see where you get that from or why it is in anyway important.Yes, there can be exceptions and Thiefs/Deadeyes can be honorable.Yes, Thiefs/Deadeyes can be used as scouts.Yes. in the Eternal Army were all sorts of classes.Nowhere I deny any of that.Where do I define that "Honor in Battle" is defined by its tools? Where did you get that from? I have not stated anything how I define "Honor in Battle".But if you want to know... I think "Honor in Battle" is defined by the actions you take in battle. Yes, I have read her backstory and I know how she became a Deadeye and how she joined the Zaishen order. Yes, saving innocent peoples is honorable but that does not mean that her actions in battle are. And was she in battle? It looked more like a small combat to me. A small scale fight. Whatever we call her fights, I think sniping the enemy is not Honor in Battle. Yes, Saving innocent is honorable. But these are two different things. In GW1 the main Focus was Honor in Battle. Now it seems to me they shift the main focus to protect the weak. Anyway for me Zafirah is just an extension or continuation of the inconsistent storytelling of the Balthaddon Arc in PoF (Path of Nonsense). When you consider the inconsistency of PoF I was still foolish enough to expect that the storytellers come up with a more consistent to the old Balthazar Theme "Honor in Battle" character as ally. A more fitting character that explains the backround of the Balthaddon Arc.... In my oppinion Zafirah is a bad representation of old Balthazar. But maybe she shall not represent old Balthazar and shall be the transition to the new power and the new god of war... I dont know... I agree Zafirah has an interesting story but it does not fit old Balthazar which she is a pristess of as a Deadeye. And that screams inconsistency to me and after PoF experiencing Zafirah i just can shout out why?!? Please give me Rastigan as ally and let him talk to my by PoF tortured Fissure of Woe memories. Let Rastigan tell me that PoF was just a bad dream and everything will be fine. Anyway. If you want you can call me "classisist". ;) and I admit I am biased. PoF pushed me to WvW and here I got shot alot in the back by nearly permanent invisible Deadeyes. Probably one of the reasons why I think sniping is not Honor in Battle. I hope I have clarified a little bit my opinion.

Zafirah Pristess of Balthazar thief class specialisation Deadeye... this contradiction alone disqualified her in my eyes. I agree as she said that Balthazar will be remembered for what he did in the end and not what he stood for in the past. What was that exactly what he stood for? Wasnt it Honor in Battle? Isnt Honor in Battle one of the first things Blathazar taught humans. Isnt Honor in Battle one of the reasons why the Eternal Army was full of heroic looking ghostly knights? and a thief deadeye reminds us of Honor in Battle. yeah sure... I take this seriously enough to think that we will continue the Path of Nonsense.

I am not saying its totally fine. I was asking a question to clarify what has been said. While I agree in general that mental manipulation and abuse is hard to fight against in a short time I think killing an innocent is more than just one "simple" revelation. When Caithe is willing to kill an innocent than she has reached in my eyes a "point of no return" and just because she cannot "face the truth" does not make her murder right. I think her emotional destabilization is in no way an excuse or a justification for murdering an innocent. My statement that I dislike teenager loves criminal trope results of the similarity of the following:Criminal manipulating the teenager to love him, making her dependant and than making her do what he wants. The emotional and mental influence of the criminal lead to "bad decisions" of the teenager.Faolin manipulating Caithe to love her, making her dependant and than making her do what she wants. The emotional and mental influence of Faolin lead to "bad decisions" of Caithe.

Just for clarification are you saying that its totally fine to murder innocents when the murderer has been abused, manipulated and controlled? Caithe had one choice to make. Kill W or finally stand up and stop her amoral lover. Caithe "prefered" to kill an innocent to avoid the confrontation. And thats the point where Caithe lost my sympathy. Well and I always disliked the "teenager loves criminal" trope.

Shocking news, an inexperienced, young Caithe did a rash and stupid move that she pretty much literally regretted her entire life. Regret as much as you want, she murdered her SISTER because she was too much of a coward to tell Faolain to stop. There is nothing she ever did to redeem that horrible deed. She got even "rewarded" to be the nanny of a very important dragon baby. From that point of view you can even go that far and argue that the commander it is totally fine that a murderer is a babysitter.

@Kashin.7192 Caithe was an interesting character to me but well... without spoilering you have to play season two. Just in case you dont know. You can play season two with a friend or guild mate. Your character will not be the main but you get the story without paying gems for it.

I like exploring the maps and when there is a top of a mountain I want to get to the top.... but... invisible walls does make exploring a frustrating experience. I dont want to be frustrated so I stop exploring.

Ice or winter skin like the other mounts... but with an Ice breath instead of fire.

I crafted legendary weapons just to sell them and upgrade my account or buy QoL equipment.

What about thrones that have the effects like those on mounts... example an ice throne with the "fog" effect of the ice mounts. One of my characters needs an ice throne.

Understandable since cockfighting is now illegal... Yeah and Pokemon games are legal. Your point is?

As far as I remember in the beginning of GW2 Arenanet was into developing minipet arenas where minipets could battle each other.... unfortuantely that has been dropped. So minis are just fluff cosmetic...

If it is not the edge or the ceiling of the map can you please... please remove invisible walls? please?! I dont care if there is nothing on a mountain top. But if a mountain top is there I want to be able get there somehow. But when you are blocked by invisible walls its just frustrating. Invis walls do not encourage to explore the map.

I maxed out luck through ecto salvaging and I dont like to throw luck away. I mean its luck and when you throw luck away you are unlucky. And noone wants to be unlucky, right? I dont know what kind of luck sink to introduce but I dont think it should give salvagable items. Maybe a luck eater that converts luck into temporary boons? I dont know something like A stack of 250 exotic luck gives you something like an 25 or 50 minutes of X% additional luck?

The tower is fine as it is and the challenge has been reduced already. Today, you dont see the other player characters in their real form. Today the other players are nearly invisible. Do you know how hard it was as every player was visible? How hard it is when you have Charr and Norn in your group and you cant see where to jump because of these big guys? That was a real mean challenge.

I like the irony in the fate of Trahearne... The scholar of Orr died because of his lack of knowledge.

Was in WvW...EU many before got disconnected than it hit me. Afterwards cant login again.Build: 90556Error Code: 1004:6:3:2126

Ofcourse they can do it. Its just a thing of programming. But it is not a question wheter they can or cannot do it.The important question is: Will the invested time to do this change be cost efficient? I am no expert but I assume that the answer is no. I would appeciate if they would do it ... its nice to have but I think it is better to work on new stuff instead of adjusting old stuff that isnt broken.

Nearly perfect expansion with one major flaw. The story. It is presented well but in the end disappointing. Read Lore section. There are enough threads about this. Why not use existing lore and build on it and escalate something like the evil half brother Menzies the Mad, Lord of destruction? Now the brother conflict is in the trashcan. With PoF the memories of FoW get a real bad shadow. Thank you, it turns out we players fought for evil against evil in GW1. GW2 PathofFire = second release kill a god. GW1 Nightfall = second release kill a god... PoF = Abbadon 2.0.
