GW2 EoD Thief PvP - Power Sc/D Specter

[@vietjoii]

as someone who is new to pvp, your commentary helps me understand lots. thank you man

[@katalan5969]

We can clearly see that specter isn't good as SUPPORT but more oriented at PEELING for allies. So basically play full dps and sometimes peeling when needed. Very fun to play.

Every condi build resumed

20:21 ok that was pretty freakin sweet. Mans went through multiple timelines until he found the one where he escapes.

[@kacerz8555]

that ranger dying at 14:45 due to fall dmg just because you hit him before must have been really mad great video as awlays!

[@eldrevo]

Nice! Didn't expect power specter to be honest, and it's funny that scepter/dagger is a go-to option for condi in PvE right now. But it still looks pretty sick in PvP :)

[@NeverWolf]

im definitely going to be revisiting specter in pvp. it really has a lot of potential but it's not the easiest on the hands. what im playing now is power harb, both the spite megamelt spec and the blood magic spec that actually might eek out the spite spec even with how explosively deadly that thing can be.

[@aeroblizz1987]

Finally a thief build without the Shortbow..

[@MrTimdeK]

that's what happens when every skill is now a shadowstep hahaha

[@charlesdesbrosses9931]

And when your initiative is cut.

[@MrBrizzled]

@vallun i've done a ton of pvp as grieving amulet and it's actually super good coverage damage for not much of a loss of the power build

[@defleshed2]

amazing build does this still work in WvW after the nurfs/changes?

[@Nedwig747]

Daredevils have given me such a complex, I'm completely terrified of a perma stealth dps shroud spectre being a legit possibility

[@Deadeye2907]

Watching all the EoD stuff almost made me come back to GW2. Then I remembered Thief exists. And my desire completely disappeared.

[@kassill3786]

Might be because im new to thief in general, but i feel like i blow up before i even get 2-3 abilites off

[@OKDC]

Great video

[@RaviolistRavioli]

Seeing how cool all the other specs are makes me sad about willbender.

[@eldrevo]

Willbender is pretty cool tho, Vallun already has a couple of videos for it

[@vandakaii2893]

Dual S/S condi willbender is spicy not sure what you are sad about.. Mine is currently pushing about 37k and if get a good engage with F1 into S/S 4 its almost always a once shot if their stun or knocked down.

[@RaviolistRavioli]

@@vandakaii2893Sure it puts out big numbers in pve, but it doesn't have anything new, sword offhand is just two boring abilities, an impossible to land 4 skill in pvp and another dash skill. The new utility skills are so bad that even Vallun doesn't take them. All the other classes have these new cool looking abilities that hit hard while guard is just the same. In terms of number of new abilities, guard has the least. And what guard did get is patheticly useless, there isn't a single trait or ability that you could say is a must have, all have better alternatives within the core guard kit.

[@vandakaii2893]

@@RaviolistRavioli Guard went from being one of the slowest in arenas to being up there with theif and if you utilize them really well their very good.. Vallun plays a lot of support in most of his vids i mean he just made a Vindi build vid that is based around support yet again.. And specter and vindi gonna be getting a nerf hammer so dont be expecting its 2h sword 5 to do 22 k with one push.. That being said in terms of all around style and burst willbender will most likely not move where it is and depending on how hard specter losses its shadow shield when they do get nerfed it may even end up being the best one out of them all.. I think it just comes down to you as a person more then the specs cause i can finish all my matchs 1 or 2nd in dmg with plenty of side caps and about avg around 10 and 3 per game with my willbender.. Also, Vallun's recent willbender vid was power focused which using a lot of the support outside of the baseline dashes is kinda meh on power bender as your looking for more stun breaks and resolution then anything.. I go in with F1 open up with S/S 4 and if they live go straight into the backstep blind into a second dash F1 again or S/S 5 and use S/S 3 or switch to torch and use 5 depends on if there is more then 2 of them.. Maybe its just the style you do not like I mean if you wanna drop the hammer then play a Vindicator but, I will be honest I think in the right hands Willbender is quite broken.. O yea btw my Bender is Dual S/S S/T condi/vitality with as much burn duration as you can grab but to offset the noodle hits i capped his crit chance to 100% he is sitting at 45% but with fury popping and resoulition and the right abilities taken that is another 45% so even tho my power is low the constant crit still hits for about 1k at the least and that with the burns doing their thing makes for very short fights at least for me so far.. I even have 0 issues with most classes if have played outside of a good catalyst or weaver. Anyway, hope ya find something you like.

[@daydreadzasajt]

actually got the same thing with heal skill its a bug :( nice vid btw specter is more funn as power than condi

[@vandakaii2893]

That mobility tho.. 2 moves your half way across the mpa lmao..

[@joaoserpa4764]

[@kacerz8555]

[@bernardo879]

what this scourge build? why is everything purple? I thought necro was green, can you change the color of the necro skills? Oh right anet did that with specter, it will never be a thief spec like dd or de

[@muaadhsalim784]
