[@Azithable]

This level of guide is *perfect*. The perfect amount of information on how to play the class abilities and how to handle the class from a macro sense. Immediately made me want to try playing thief and pvp again. Super excited for the rest of the Core guides and would love this level of guide for all the specs honestly.

[@Shadowfall_TV]

Hey Azith! I'm glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for the support, more vids coming soon! :D

[@m73858]

Thanks!

[@TheFilmArchives]

Broooo you don't know how much help this video was, literally spent over a week searching to see if thief is actually viable in rPVP. You are the greatest of all TIOOOMEEE

[@mecto9879]

Hey Quinn! I'm glad you enjoy the videos! Thanks for the support :D

[@user-cr4pv2tc7l]

I just started GW2 and my first character is thief (yeah I know) and this guide really helped a lot, thank you!

[@mianala]

This is a perfect guide bro. I wish I found your videos earlier

[@sebastiaandepaus]

Really liked this core builds guide! Gave me alot of new insight. Will you also do this for other classes?

[@Shadowfall_TV]

Hey Sebastiaan! I'm glad you enjoyed the video! I will get to the others later, working on other videos atm. Thanks for the support! :D

[@Aaron-nv3ei]

[@Aaron-nv3ei]

@@Shadowfall_TV As long as you keep doing such good work for the community especially with this amazing quality, I am always going to support and like your videos in anyway I can.

[@Trees36547]

This is the best GW2 PVP content

[@Shadowfall_TV]

Thanks Treemonkeys :D

[@dim3920]

Hello, very nice put together video! Subbed! I ve got some questions for you, any input is greatly appreciated. Are any of the elite specs viable for higher tier pvp and can core thief keep up with those? , specifically the daredevil. I d love to see a video guide on that spec and how you would utilise it. Also, what kind of armour and weapon skins are you using? It looks insane!

[@DestructX]

The trait that gives bonus power when revealed isn't when you're not stealthed, but when an enemy uses a skill that reveals you if I understand correctly

[@Shadowfall_TV]

Hey Destruct! The bonus power applies when you have the reveal debuff. If you attack from stealth and reveal yourself, you'll get the bonus. You'll also get it if an enemy reveals you. Hope that helps! Thanks for the support :)

[@DestructX]

@@Shadowfall_TV I see. thanks for explaining!

[@alwaysraiders]

Thank you. Any update to this

[@bigdogszgaming9994]

what skin are you using?

[@giancarlokubota6261]

Please teach us how to do thief aftercast combos

[@jaredheuser8890]

i found that i have to press steal immediately after heartseeker or it breaks stealth

[@Turkeyhunter1994]

What amulet, rune and sigils do you run on the pistol dagger might build?? Awesome guides just started playing about a week ago!

[@Shadowfall_TV]

Hey Josh! I'm glad you enjoy the videos! The builds are linked in the description. The condi build is carrion amulet + orr/lynx runes. Hope that helps! Thanks for the support :D

[@quela5008]

i just started gw2 all ur videos are really interesting, i started ranger looking for a greatsword wielding ranger, r u gonna do more ranger guides?

[@Shadowfall_TV]

Hey Quela! I'm glad you enjoy the videos! I'll do more ranger guides for sure :D

[@viktorzahn2693]

Blindside the newbies are thirsty for the next 8 core class builds 😁

[@Shadowfall_TV]

On it!

[@rylegaming2903]

core necromancer plss

[@axticy5157]

Probably a dumb question but can I use the D/P build in pve as I level up?

[@Shadowfall_TV]

Hey Axticy! Yeah it should be fine for open world PvE ^^

[@SeIfmadeEndboss]

are there any good D/D Builds?

[@Shadowfall_TV]

Hey Banster! You can run d/d at low ratings (low gold and below) but it falls off pretty quickly past that. I hope you enjoyed the video! Thanks for the support :D

[@viktorzahn2693]

Most 900iq videos 😁

[@deko2298]

Do you have pve ? i just started gw2... got all the expansions etc.. and i love thief. Yet i'm on trial. Btw about your cosmetic set.. look awesome if you can leave info where i can get it.

[@Shadowfall_TV]

Hey DeKo! I don't PvE but my armor set is Whisper's Secret Hood, Dragonscale Epaulets, Bladed Jerkin, Marauder Gloves, Leystone Leggings, Ascalonian Sentry Boots, Canthan Spiritualist Backpack! Hope that helps!

[@Trey10GG]

so im new to GW2... is there a reason why every build video ever for this game doesnt say what set/traits to run..? IE; Marauder, Viper, etc..

[@Shadowfall_TV]

Hey Evenex! The builds are linked in the description and I talk about the traits in the video. sPvP uses an amulet system so it doesn't matter what armor pieces you're running as long as you have a chestpiece, legs, and boots equipped for the armor value. Hope that helps! Thanks for the support :)

[@garregalen83]

This sounds great but im to new player to understand all your saying.

[@Shadowfall_TV]

Hey Garre! Check out the beginner guide on my channel (first video I've posted) if you want to learn the basics :)
