SiEO0702: Can't wait for rat wizard!

aethermartyr4860: i mainly play gw2 for pvp and for 12 years its crazy how anet dgaf about this class. off hand dagger or pistol for 12 years.. meanwhile most of the classes now actually fight against a fucking circle meaning they dont give a fuck what you gonna do next move. hard territory style. they mash buttons you die when you get close. ele for example. not gonna buy the xpac. indie corrupted family company

avekrso285: Thief mains suck....but I'd be pissed too LOL antiquarian looks incredibly lame

drolzak7: I'm a thief player (currently maining Specter for 2 years now), and I really dig this.

The outrage from those redditors and forum dwellers feels waaaaaay overblown.

if you think about it, the spec fits.

The Cards icon:

- RNG skills

- Choosing your stolen items as if you're choosing cards to play

- resembles the Collections icon

Artifacts:

- Guitar is a reference to the Metal Legion in Ice Brood Saga

- Dancing Skritt is a reference to the dancing hologram in the Aetherblade Hideout from Season 1

- Chak Organ is a reference to the Chak Blitzers in Heart of Thorns

- Kryptis Catapult (blogpost) is a reference to the Kryptis in Secrets of the Obscure

The point of the artifacts is that they are references to older story content, AKA digging up the past.

Who do we associate with thieves that dig up the past for their own profit? Tomb Raiders.

It's no edgelord spec, deal with it.
