Love how comprehensive and informative this was, trying to learn Deadeye and this is a fantastic and detailed resource. Hope you consider returning and making more stuff but even if not, thanks for this!
Great and extensive guide Rufio, and you take your time to explain a lot in detail. Very informative! Thank you. You mention that you either run d/p or s/d depending on the situation - when do you choose one over the other ? I feel like the s/d is harder to land dmg with but maybe thats cause by inexperience.
God, I hate playing against this class with every ounce of my body. Helpful to learn about it but at the same time I don't want anyone picking this shit up.
Its definitely better than daredevil. If you somehow guess where deadeye will destealth you can burst him down. And deadeye can't kill people in one second. Daredevil on the other hand... Just no.
It takes a lot of time to make a video longer than 10 minutes. You also need a lot of video footage for that. When you have all that, you need to be able to edit well. I'm a noob editor. I use Danvici Resolve. Beginner level. In addition to all that, I work. It takes a lot of time to do this. But I will continue to do so.👍
I love the comprehensive guide! I’ve not gotten to deep into deadeye and I’m learning a lot here. But why BM so much with tbagging and throwing siege? I never understood why people do this.
I could talk about this all day, there are so many different scenarios. To truly understand, you need to roam for a few thousand hours and experience it yourself. The first tip: if you're going to roam, go into "invisible mode" because people will whisper all kinds of crap to you. If they don’t speak English, you'll get whispers in any language imaginable. They just need to say their piece, and that’s it. I’m not sure if I have the footage, but there was one time when people threw like 10 catapults at me. If you check out my last video, "This never gets old in Guild Wars 2," you'll get the point. I’m throwing siege on people who deserve it, not all the time, but sometimes, to show them I don’t need a squad to kill them. People spend so much time in Zergs that they don’t know how to handle a 1v1. They hate it when a lower-ranked player kills them, or when they've spent so much gold on gear, and then someone who looks like a hobo kills them. Thief is very rewarding if you know how to play it, but also very punishing if you make mistakes. Soulbeast with Berserker stats can one-shot you with longbow 2, even if you're mounted. A Warrior with Berserker gear can CC you and, with Greatsword 2, you're pretty much dead. A Druid will root you to death. Willbenders with Marauder stats will delete you if you don’t escape the flames and roots within 2-3 seconds. People complain that Willbender is OP, but they just sit in the roots and flames. I’m sharing my experience from over the years, maybe new players will get motivated to enter WvW, not just when an event is going on or when they need the Gift of Battle. If you kill over 100 players in 1v1s or outnumbered fights in one month while you have "online" status on, please share your experience!:) Peace
More damage. I’m using this build with Daredevil too, using either Dagger/Pistol (D/P) or Axe/Pistol (A/P). You might think it requires being in melee range, but it actually triggers on any impact-whether a ranged or melee attack, as long as you get a critical hit, and it stacks with Air Sigil effects. Try dueling another Deadeye who uses this, you’ll notice the impact on your HP right away. For Quickness, you can use the Superior Sigil of Celerity or any other sigil that suits you. There are many great websites for builds, especially if you're new to the profession/class, but eventually, you’ll likely tweak it to suit your playstyle. For example, I usually adjust traits, stats, sigils, etc., based on specific opponents. If I swap out any utility skill in this build, I struggle against Druids at the same skill level. This setup also has trouble against Daredevil Dagger/Pistol builds because it doesn’t include the 'Cloaked in Shadow' trait. 'Cloaked in Shadow' is incredibly strong against melee classes, especially other melee Thieves, if you have it, it’s almost a guaranteed win. I skip it because there aren’t many active Thieves around right now, though there are plenty of Willbenders, they’re relatively easy to counter with any Thief specialization. Test it out and see what fits your playstyle best! :)
@@RufioGamer I main DE, but I had just never considered fire sigil because I was under the misconception that the fire blast was melee only, but after observing closer in the video I can see that the blast was on your target. Handy for extra chip damage and pressuring targets trying to res. Your video has been informative and it has made me consider some things that I had been overlooking. Keep up the good work.
Mist Stranger Outfit, you have few NPCs in the game, like in WVW or Eye of the North with the same outfit. I paid on discount for it 400 gems, some time ago. I don't know now if is it in the gem store or not.

Just gotta drop in and say awesome video, long but very informative and well explained. Love the guide thank you.

I am pretty sure i saw you a moments ago in the WvW. Nice to know that this one shark hunts on the same side 😀
Nice work Rufio! 🙂👍You provide a lot of information and statistics.

The Problem with this build is in wvw that you even CANT Fight against it.
Only of the DE knows what hes doing tho.
Still much better than facing daredevil
Its definitely better than daredevil. If you somehow guess where deadeye will destealth you can burst him down. And deadeye can't kill people in one second. Daredevil on the other hand... Just no.
keep making videos like this - there are few of them - that explain how skills work and the specialization itself😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉

A bit late, but could you please explain sigil of fire and how it benefits the build?
