On the contrary to the most classes which can fight enemy face to face, thief is very rattle and can't fight too long. The best move is to use the distance weapon to weaken an enemy and then quickly finish him off with the blade. If you want to play as a thief, you have to learn evading and rumbling perfectly. Unfortunately, this hero requires big in-game know-how to be well used.

In the PvP you should always attack from behind. On the contrary to many MMOs in Guild Wars 2 thief can't be permanently invisible so you have to learn how to avoid attacks and how to move on the battlefield.
