All I can say to the complainers: skill issue. There are better builds for damage and rotating but the supportive aspect of the build carries it. In 2v2s on sides especially the barrier sharing is invaluable, it's endless and almost free. You need to care for your team to get the full potential of this build which makes it more complex than your average thief build and I can see some people are having trouble adjusting.
I'm not an excellent pvp player and I certainly haven't exploited its full potential at all. But this spec seems really bad to me btw...
Saw play in the MAT, its not bad but not as good as it once was. Still viable for ranked but if the enemy has a dp daredevil, you are screwed.
My first love of the expansion but good things never last. Shroud nerf slapped it hard and we never got anything to compensate. I still play it sometimes and it CAN be useful, it's not unviable but there are so many more OP things to play rn. I absolutely hate shortbow on thief and I loved that we could finally play without it. The support angle was very refreshing and a welcome addition to thief, the damage is kinda of good but the whole thing feels sluggish without quickness. Maybe instead of alacrity wells should give quickness? Or buff chrono rune.
Seems to be the #1 thief build after the last balance patch. Great damage, mobility and group utility.
this is the real "necro" with high speed good support help team . only specter can win blade 1v1
My favorite build atm - highly mobile, good damage, and strong utility. Really starts to shine once you get the hang of which shadowstep to use in a given situation and when to target allies with 3. I currently prefer Panic Strike since a surprise immobilize is nice for securing kills, and there might be an argument for pistol offhand with scepter (though the 3 is somewhat harder to use).
