GW2. WvW Build. Celestial Daredevil WvW Roaming Build. Thief WvW. Small Scale WvW Build.
Role: Bruiser 
The Celestial Daredevil is a thief WvW roaming build that goes in and out of stealth very quickly to gain all of the bonuses of Shadow Arts by using the Pistol 5 Black Powder and then combo finisher leaping through it with the daredevil’s Bounding Dodger trait. They can then use the stealth attack (1) which is very high power and condition burst damage.
The stealth attack also counts as multiple projectile finishers, allowing you to create extra blinding finishers by shooting through your Black Powder. This means you usually want to dodge backward, putting the blinding field in between you and your target.
The revealed debuff lasts for 4 seconds after you exit stealth, preventing you from reentering stealth until it wears off. You will be vulnerable during this time, and the blind may not be enough. Use the Pistol 4 Headshot or Steal to interrupt enemies while waiting for the revealed debuff to run out, then repeat the combo.
Basic Combo:
- Pistol 5 > Dodge > Pistol 1 > 4
- Pistol 5 > Dodge > Pistol 1 > 4

Is there an alternate rune choice??
Not really any good alternative since you need the Might but you can try Adventurer or Durability
Is it viable to use Rending shade instead of Shadow’s Rejuvenation?
Along with trickery traits ofc
I love this a lot. Also is there something for those who main shortbow? :<
Yes! I would like to see a build for a short bow, I really want x)
Thank you for the build! I have been playing this for a while. Quick question: I have been using sigil of battle however. Why do you prefer sigil of doom over sigil of battle?
Doom sigil is overpowered its more reliable to keep putting pressure on enemies by just swapping
any update with this build ? since the 6th bonus from aristocracy is reworked :((
