As many of you know recently a developer came on a thread inferring that a backstab nerf to thief was inevitable. This was made in regards to a thread where a warrior wanted a nerf because he took a 8K damage hit (keep in mind, any thieves running full glass cannon to achieve that type of damage are probably all too familiar with taking 6K+ damage from warriors and other glass cannon builds). By doing this, anet is essentially turning a thief’s only glass cannon build into a glass cannon build with the cannon part. This is not the right way to balance things. These constant nerfs need to stop for thief. Enough is enough. Anet, if you’re reading. Answer me this question : Why do you feel the need to nerf a glass cannon thief while not nerfing 100 blades + frenzy combo that can do more damage than 8K damage dealt from warriors that aren’t entirely glass cannon.
Thieves who are against this nerf need to speak up. If you are against this, make your own thread, so anet can hear us out, because our pleads are not being prioritized, compared to the few who make pleads for nerfs. If we don’t speak up now, the thief class is going to be destroyed. The nerfs are not going to stop. Stealth is next, then condition damage.
