It's a cele build. It does cele things. High uptime on important boons like Alacrity and even Quickness, great hybrid damage, capable in both ranged and melee. Extremely obnoxious especially with the mobility it has. Post Cele nerf edit: this build wasn't really affected, boons weren't all that important and most conditions had good base durations.
Strong but half the value is missing in WvW. In PvP this is great because of the support angle, being able to multitask not just kill. But if you're roaming solo the support element is gone and I think other thief builds do it better. In 1v1s it's still good but it's very predictable and slow. In a group this is a 5 tho.
Fantastic build, played it with Aristocracy runes for better Might uptime. Insane mobility, great hybrid pressure (right up there with Celestial Harbinger when played well), great boon uptime, high survivability (2 health bars & Cele stats), and little reliance on stealth. Spamming Scepter/Pistol 3 will make every projectile and melee oriented spec absolutely loathe you.
