I started my thief using dual pistols and did a lot of kiting.. Then recently switched to dual daggers and spammed a lot of the Death Blossom ability, which seems really good.. While doing it you're evading attacks and it hits everyone around you for seemingly reasonable damage.. I think I can do it 3 times before my initiative runs out, then I use the Roll for Initiative power, which gets out of range of attacks (might evade, but I'm not sure) and gives a bunch of Initiative back and I can usually get in to hit another death blossom or two.. Throwing on signet of Malice makes health come back pretty fast given you get health each time Death Blossom hits (which is a few times). Overall, I'm feeling pretty hardy, but last night was the first time I really invested in trying the dagger/dagger stuff (and I'm only level 14 ).. Seems much more powerful than the guns I was using earlier.. May try and experiment with some weapon swapping.. Shoot a bit, when they get in range jump to daggers..
Overall, lots of fun on the thief
