GW2. Open World Build. Power Staff Daredevil. Thief PvE.
Last Update: December 2023
The Power Staff Daredevil is a mobile thief build that is simple but requires good positioning to survive and maximize damage dealt.
Dodging deals damage and gives damage modifiers. Try to dodge before depleting initiative on the Staff damaging abilities 2 or 5 (depending on whether you need an evade or not). Use Swipe/Steal (to trigger Celerity Sigil) and Haste for quickness to improve the speed of your Staff 1. Dodging and Staff 5 are not affected by quickness, so prefer not to overlap them. Use Signet of Agility and Channeled Vigor when you run out of dodges.
Position yourself at the maximum hit range while using Staff 1 so you can time your dodges when you need to evade an attack but still dodge through the boss to still be in range and damage them with your dodge.
