@@JunoSweetheart Because it's not a fun time to get ganked while you're running to rejoin your zerg or to some objective. Even if you fight the thief off it's an irritation and a waste of time. That goes for all roamers but thieves are the worst offenders because of the way they can disengage and harass.
@TeleologicalConsistency9779 I do get how annoying it can be when you're just trying to link back up with your group. Although, as a roamer, I get chased hard by groups of 20-30+ players on mounts so often - sometimes literally across the map - that I think roamers have just as reason to be annoyed with zergs ^^
Man, some people have such egos in this game, it blows my mind. I remember once when some XOXO people were being so toxic at one of the dueling spot, another dueling spot behind the south farm opened up just to avoid them. Nice video. Hopefully this guy learns to deal with his anger.
Thank you for monitoring the trashtalkers for our Guild Wars 2 Toxic Police Department. Even being on vacations you are doing great work for our community, cleansing the game of such individuals. The city can sleep peacefully when the hero protects us! 😌
It is so good to see your name pop up in the feed. When I tell you the whisper cinematics had me howling. The plays, the editing, the music, the extra touches. As always, Exzen the god!!!!!!! GGzzzzzzz
Hey bro! Thanks for the comment, glad you enjoyed it. I'm slowly getting extra time to play and I'm very slowly building up an NA alt - so collab at some point!
Haha, yeah, playing op specs for the win does not make you a good player. Obviously there are some very skilled thieves... thankfully not too many though
Haha, yeah, kinda unbelievably bad - especially for the size of his ego. And I have to give credit to Amos, the god of memes for passing me that Asmongold gem xD
This is why I ignore any kind of whispers/pm in WvW. Some years ago I got stupid whining after a PvP match and all I did was roll with what I got. Win some. Lose some. Can never understand why some people trash talk like that. It's ridiculous.
Lovely video. Someone should give the link of this to Ol' Toothless Boob or tag him in here to join the conversation! Come on Toothless Boob sir, tell us how it went from your POV!
Thanks! I'm currently using Relic of the Midnight King for fury uptime that is otherwise lacking. Its not needed if you run air/arcane/weaver, but definitely needed if you drop arcane.
Ah yes, ye olde "I'm not mad, I'm not crying, YOU ARE!". I swear dudes like these are just a case study in psychological projection... lol. I would happily welcome the return of expose videos in this community. Maybe, probably not, but maybe, some of them will learn that it pays to keep at least a neutral/decent reputation and not just go around making enemies every single time they play.
A thief attacking from his mount? Never seen this one. I thought the prime direction for thieves was: always attack from stealth... Something about ambush gives extra damage... I'm not even a thief main and I know this.
Haha, glad you enjoyed it xD And no idea, but it does feel like an overly large proportion of Charr Thieves and Asura Rangers send me salt compared to other race/class choices haha
Good question. It cam be somewhat subjective, but it becomes obvious when you play a class/build or play against a class/build. Many matchups are fairly even, some slightly favour one over the other and some classes/builds counter the other so much that it's extremely difficult to win. Experience is really the only way to know. For example, the build I use is hard countered by dagger/pistol thief. A few reasons for this are the ridiculously high stealth uptime - most of my skills require a target, so you cant even use them when the thief is sat in stealth. Ele has no reveals. There are multiple blinds on that kit, mainly from pistol 5 and dagger/pistol 3, so if i can see them, a lot of the skills miss anyway due to the blinds. They also have access to daze on command in pistol 4, which can interrupt important skill casting, which again limits my ability to fight back. Thief also has access to many stunbreaks and dodges/evades, which make it very difficult to lock them down and again even hit them. On top of this, thief is more mobile, with teleports (which again makes it hard to hit them when you only have 900 range) which counters my ability to effectively kite. Combine all of these and honestly an equally skilled player on thief should win the majority of these fights. FA Weaver does have crazy high burst though, so I can win if I outplay the thief, they mess up badly or if I get lucky. GW2 balance at the moment is very much "rock, paper, scissors". For example, against a core necro, its more or less a free kill for me, since there's so little they can do to trouble me. Hope that explains it.
@@Exzen Tbh, I find that thief counters pretty much anything in WvW, they are so used to being overpowered but thinking it's skill that once you actually kill them they get very buthurt. There is no greater ego then that of a WvW thief roamer. They are the ones that are usually complaining about any build that puts them in some kind difficulty, while they play the most mechanically broken class in WvW roaming. They will never acknowledge this because that will mean they are not the god gamer they think they are. I asked my thief friends what counters them, their answer said it all. Only thing that actually counters thief is other thieves, which is the sad truth. Good thing that most thieves are actually pretty bad so they are mostly just annoying and can actually be killed. Once you learn haw to play it, you only die if you want too.
@arandompotato3382 haha, thief does have a couple of counters too. But yes, they are top tier for roaming for a reason. I will say that I know many thief mains who are great people, good players and aren't salty etc - I don't want to put everyone in that bracket... but many players with big egos do gravitate to thief :)
Seems like you are two peas out of the same pod. Records the other's toxic chat, then proceeds to make an entire video to mock the other. Comments how the thief goes out of combat, goes out of combat when pressured as well. you two are a great fit, entertaining vid.
Haha xD well, I wasn't intending on recording it initially... then he died in the 1v2 one minute after sending those messages and I couldn't resist. Nvidia let's you record the last 5 mins. I'm always friendly in game, I don't send rage whispers, BM or insult people unprovoked. But I suppose I didn't need to make this video either xD so I guess I see where you're coming from to a point! Re the out of combat - there is a difference, in that mine wasn't intentional (and the only time that has happened) - I had to kite away since he'd used shadowstep and I could see the shadow return aoe on the ground next to me, if I stayed put or moved towards him, he essentially gets the free kill. Bear in mind that with the shadow return and the inherent mobility on thief, the only way I go out of combat vs that is if he let's me. Its important when fighting a d/p thief on FA not to allow them to dictate the fight completely on their terms - so it's sensible to constantly kite away to force them to waste initiative and cooldowns following you. Glad you enjoyed the video anyway xD
I gotta be honest this weaver build is actually pretty urm ..... broken? At least in 1v1s there is no hecking way you could Counter that shit as a warr BUT on the other side warr need its counter build so its fine xD Ahhhhhh ye also nice exposed Video xd!
Thanks Myror! Actually, throw cele condi zerker at this for virtually 100% win rate or power spb with magebane tether, hammer and reasonable stab uptime. Then just cc lock me and laugh xD you're likely to win most of duels if relatively equal skill. I only have one stunbreak, so it's pretty gross for me to fight. Open roaming fights I'd likely kite both builds very hard. This build is strong, but has its counters too
@@Exzen yea not say it has not. But thing is its just 1 mistake and your death basicly against it xd. Not saying its not do able but in Open field areas it should win against Warrior (maybe not if he plays cele as you said)
Ok I really don’t get the whole „I’m better, you sux” arguing from pvp players…guess this is to show how immature the playerbase is, but the „toothless boob” made me laugh 😂
Haha, yeah. It's a game at the end of the day, who actually cares if you're good at a game or not. Have fun, enjoy playing. Although I'd say most players in WvW I come across are chilled out and perfectly nice. Glad the video made you laugh :)
Man, that kids takes the GAME way too serious. Someone needs to touch grass and not take a game personal. When you do that it's time for a break. Real talk.
The mechanics and playstyle of thieves inevitably draw these types of people to play them.
Yeah, unfortunately so.
As thief player i always get the mobbing 😢 So sad.

Hilarious…. Nice video man
Haha, thanks!
Some people man :D Atleast I wasnt as toxic when we did some 1v1s ^^ (The willbender you owned a lot) :P
Haha, sorry man, didn't see this for some reason!
WE WANT MORE!
WE WANT MORE!
WE WANT MORE!
XDDD this does seem to be the overwhelming response. More it is... Next time some moron sends me salty whispers
Not all thieves, but always a thief, the saltiest ones of this gamemode xD
Haha! So true xD
That Asmon clap haha. Had me rollin 🤣. Top tier edits.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it xD
Thieves only know how to hit stealthily and run out of the duel area if they are losing.
Haha, not all... but certainly true for a lot of thieves
The asmongold edit lmfao
10 out of 10, will watch again
Thank you!
It is thieves most of the time being salty cuz they got a big adventages on 1v1 and when they lose there is no cope mechanism for them lol
Haha, yeah, playing op specs for the win does not make you a good player. Obviously there are some very skilled thieves... thankfully not too many though
Lol gg bro 😂
Thank you dude! xD
Lmao "Toothless Boob" 🤣🤣
xD haha
2:36 10/10 moment xD
xD
That's was hilarious fun
Haha thanks!
Lmao and I thought Im pretty bad at DP drd... after seeing this guy I feel much better 🤣Also, that Asmon edit is absolute god tier there 🤣
Haha, yeah, kinda unbelievably bad - especially for the size of his ego. And I have to give credit to Amos, the god of memes for passing me that Asmongold gem xD
I would love it if DP skill 3 instead of being unblockable you could reflect it and it would yeet them away.
Nice 1v1s that is a spicy burst
Thanks! Yeah, the d/p kit in general could use balancing, but I do like your suggestion for skill 3.
Likez :D
Thanks dude! :)
asmon would approve
Haha, I hope so xD
lmao exzen nice MLG asmongold edit
Haha, thanks bro! XD

Lol that was funny 😂
Thanks dude! xD
i confirm the rage quit , my friend was the reve , keep killing him i sadly know him xD
Haha! It's always good to get confirmation xD I liked your rev friend, they were cool
Any build guide?
Unfortunately not, I'll think about doing one

Haha, unsurpsingly he didn't try that again afterwards xD
the edit is over 9k bro xD
Haha! XD
Lolll😂 Thieves DP...so annoying to fight..always reseting the fight run away and came back to try again..well i fking hate this gameplay.
Anyway Gg
Thanks! Haha, yeah, I hate it too. But it does make it more satisfying when you kill them xD
Oh an Exzen video :D That 2:37 edit had me wheezing.
Also why is it always Charr thieves that rage the most?
Haha, glad you enjoyed it xD
And no idea, but it does feel like an overly large proportion of Charr Thieves and Asura Rangers send me salt compared to other race/class choices haha
