Hi All,
Sorry if this has already been posted but I've yet to see one. I wanted to start a thread where people can discuss in detail the flaws and advantages of each others specs for the thief. As this is a new game with an amazing amount of combinations to play each professions i wanted to get everyones input as to how bad or good certain specs are. I will start by posting mine with a bit of explanation as to why i chose what:

I mainly chose traits for the more damage from behind/side of the enemy. As i played a rogue for 6 years in WoW i'm heavily used to trying to get behind an enemy so i figured this was my best bet.
As for my skills i love shadow step its great for getting out of sticky situations as well as porting back whilst being chased for high confusion to an enemy player.
I use blinding powder for the cc and the stealth for a backstab afterwards for the high damage.
And lastly i use assassin signet for the high burst damage when using these abilities in combo.
This is a rough first draft that i'm currently testing it out.
As i said there is loads of different builds so i'm curious to see what others have come up with.
