    My edit is kind of out of order now that you posted. The damage isn't like a backstab, but it hits people so much more off balance (with that constant lockdown I put in the build.) It was shockingly effective. I really never considered unload a good skill until just now.

    Personally D/P is more my thing... http://www.guildhead.com/skill-calc#...70z7kG270z8ofZ

    For PvE crit damage is probably the way to go, but in PvP condi damage builds are my preference. D/P thieves make excellent skirmishers in WvW adept at dancing around the edges of fights picking people off, it is even possible to take on multiple players at a time if care is taken. Having ~20K health and blind on demand makes you immune to most spikes also...

    I'll second that build for WvW. It's the most popular and notorious type of thief you'll run in to. It's VERY annoying. I usually just leave if I find one unless I get lucky and hit it with a backstab or eviscerate within the first few seconds.

    I've been kind of dealing with a bunch of RL crap... but I have been following this thread and keeping all the feedback in mind. I'm still tweaking my build and such. I've started to use the shortbow a lot more, specially in wvw, because it's plain more useful there (than pistols that is) I just need to suck less at the whole ground-targetting thing...
