The Condition Thief Spear build for Guild Wars 2 is a high-damage Thief specialization tailored for raids. It features excellent mobility, crowd control, and defensive options, as well as short ramp-up time. This build relies on resource management and loses damage on moving targets, making it challenging to master.
Build Difficulty: ● ● ○ ○ ○
Precast up to five minutes before the fight, as it Recharges while armed. You can reset its Cooldown with Mushroom King's Blessing when practicing.
Precast as combat starts, except when practicing on the golem.
Always use 
顺手牵羊 off Cooldown.
Alternate between these 2 sequences:
苍白突袭 has the majority of it's damage loaded into it's final hit. It will also restore Initiative when it fully channels, therefore it is doubly important not to interrupt it!
镰爪毒液 is your strongest self-heal; it also provides substantial subgroup healing.
遁入暗影 can be cast during downtime to pre-stack 6 stacks of 
蜘蛛毒液, thanks to the 
猛毒榨取 trait. It may also be used as an emergency Stealth source if, for whatever reason, you've spent too much Initiative and cannot execute another full loop to get the full value out of 苍白突袭's Initiative refund, such as spending too much Initiative on Defiance Break, or missing your 
碎裂突袭.
恶意纹章, combined with 猛毒榨取 lifesteal, provides passive, very strong self-sustain.
