Staff thief is high reward low skill high risk. Sure having that amount of spike damage from stealth might seem a little OP but you also have to take into account you were the one playing a 17K hp light armor class... Not to mention if he fails that attack he is extremely vulnerable as he is also glass with minimal escape potential. There has always been controversy over 1-shot builds in GW2 but there will always be the higher end of the player base saying that their flaws are so big to counter-act their ability to 1-shot that there is no need to change how the skills function due to a build with the potential to 1-shot. If you don't like getting 1-shot by 1-shot builds then play bruisers and/or tankier builds. Not to mention the fact you're decapping home when you had teammates on respawn and playing against a thief with shadow trap that you FULLY CAN SEE PROC FROM ITS ANIMATION and you could've played around that. These were mistakes that you made build choice,deciding to not react to shadow trap, and rotating to a point you could've predicted by this point in the game would have that trap on it and you still failed to do anything about it then blame the game for your short-comings. I'm not flaming you i'm just pointing out there is nothing in this scenario that was out of your control to avoid. Its not the game's fault you died.
