JUN YANG.4328 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 (edited) Just saw the new trailer for thief elite. it look like a necro/mesmer. why a thief need to use magic and nerco need to use potion? can we swap between thief and nerco's elite. like thief use focus to have necro potion skill and nerco use sword to have thief new skill. i think will more sense.

Linken.6345 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Please elaborate how shadowmancy make more sence on a deathmagic wielding necromancer then a thief who lives in the shadows? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hatozeni.5721 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 I don't drop my DeadEye for nothing in this world but I'm dying to test the new spec of thief in the PVP area. With the 3 correct specs something tells me this thief will be almost immortal... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaFishBob.6518 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 So give thief pistol and give necro scepter? Sounds redundant. 4 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Galmac.4680 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Oh, and on the fourth expansion the warrior or ranger gets his own shroud too? And revs will get stealth. Hehe. But this necro/thief-mix looks very wrong. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ASP.8093 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 … You don't even know what the thief elite spec actually does yet. You're working off, like, a ten-word description and 30 seconds of animations. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asum.4960 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 I mean I kind of get where you are coming from. I wanted a edgy full caster for Necro (more akin to GW1 necro) since launch day, while an Alchemist like spec akin to Pathfinder's Vivisectionist certainly would be cool and fitting for Thief too, but that certainly won't happen at this point or is in the EoD development pipeline. That said, while I do think Necro loses out a bit with a fairly bland in terms of class fantasy and mechanically thrown together (although at least reasonable competently so) Harbinger which just sacrifices too much rather than adding new dimensions to Necro - I also feel it's high time for Thief to finally get more into that Shadow Magic avenue that we know from GW1's Assassin and that's been hinted at in Thief since launch with skills like Shadow Step, Shadow Refuge and so on. So personally I'm glad Thief seems to be getting a edgy mobile high magic spec with Specter - unrelated to my disappointment that Harbinger's existence kind of kills my hope for an edgy mobile high Magic Wraith like spec, or a proper sacrificial Warlock type caster for Necro.

Xenesis.6389 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Still laughing at how much they're stealing from other classes... and no, I don't really mean how much thieves are stealing from other classes, but how much anet is switching stuff between classes. 😉 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vidit.7108 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 The only thing thieves want from Harbinger is the ricochet pistol attack anet took from us back before HoT. A thief/engy spec is like if your parents made you wear your younger sibling's clothes, so gonna hard pass on trading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers got tired of their pets being idiots and never listening to them so they have killed them and are now running around Tyria wearing the carcasses of their pets and calling it Petshroud. Necromancers have had about as much luck of convincing them that they misinterpreted what a shroud is, as Commanders have of convincing them to stop using Point Blank Shot on everything that moves.

Gibson.4036 Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 A lot of reaction about Specter seems to come from people’s preconceptions about what a thief should be, rather than what they, and their predecessor the assassin, have been throughout the Guild Wars franchise.
