looks like EU WvW is paradise for gankers because so much population, so many noobs

 

I don't see this population you're talking about. WvW on EU is deader than ever.

Just did a few hours today but theres a lot of blobing so cant really play against 50+... just to show that everyday is fun but not always hitting a lot of downs at the same time 😞

Please notice that in group fights I stay in the back like a thief and go in for the low/weak target to make sur eit goes down. works wonders in my group.

Except it's not a thief, its got the one BANG then you're parked. No mobility, no stealth, no cooldowns. 

 

A free kill essentially.

 

How that works in your group? Welll...

Arguably significantly better at at said burst combo than thief builds trying to unload such bursts though, and has some selfish sustain to potentially get LOS/remove oneself from an extended fight with allies around.  Still gets RF and some virtue options. 

Nothing about this can't be done with WB and be objectively better, if not pretty good as a kill-and-clean build.

Like we all know soulbeast is the undisputed best at burst oneshot combo glass builds that basically can do this but safer, but even full Signet D/D thief doesn't reach these numbers anymore or even close to them, and that has even less sustain/exit potential into the mobility/ranged burst fiesta the game is today, considering said build runs zero utilities and no spare initiative for shortbow.  Honestly, if picking between alpha strike builds, I'd play this over pretty much anything else core game in terms of effectiveness.  Basically immune to blind, too.

And I mean if he runs with a thief and pocket heal ele, it's a pretty strong trio since the ele can actually stick to its ally instead of having to navigate a thief resetting out of range.

There are obviously better builds, and better burst builds (ranger, mes, engi, and even necro all have options), but for core game, not much out there competes, and its damage still holds up plenty as demonstrated.

I find that a lot of times im crucial if i join in a fight where a pre-made group playing op absurd builds and focus the squishiest person at the right time to put a lot of pressure on them for the rest to follow up. one down is a lot of times enough to slowly burst down a roaming party ,)

Thanks m8, beofre I get fed up and leave again for almost one year since anet never brings anything new ill try to make another.

This week is terrible. either blobs or unkillable builds with dura runes/ invulns passives absorbs etc etc.

[andrewlcl.8176]

Sure, it's fun, sometimes we get a good laugh. But admittedly, we could do consistently better on other builds with less effort. Against players that are actually awake. 

Thieves also, have been one-shotting glass players since time immemorial. 

[Mikhael.2391]

Got a few more in yesterday alone on reset.

 in  a game where more op and meme absurd builds exist I still get so many pms saying this is the worst...not kiting and outlasting surving entire warbands.
