thief+stealth = quick and painless death.
but same for hunter i guess.

they both are the same..
if you are a high lvl and you want everyone to respect/trust you go hunter.
if you are high lvl and you want every one to think you are a asshole go thief.

im currently a thief but i will change to hunter at 50-60lvl

thief suits the job alot better. go invisible, 2 shot the poor trader, steal the loot, run away and hide invisible

Like Fly said, invisible is a great asset for theifs. we have a lowbie who travels with us, we cause the problems for the traders/hunters i.e. bring down the ox and he comes invisible gets the loot and runs off with a 3/4 star and someone protects him once their safely outta sight.

Euro in general is awesome for thiefing. Wizards? Highest dmg in the game + invisible = wowomg. Of course can't forget fire trap either.. =)

well its not bad for a hunter either, go stealth and walk ahead a bit and check for theives say out side town gates, ferrry, and bridges, I do it with my wizzard, i can't go stealth as long as a rouge though, if the trader some how looses their transport or something, i can just go stealth, unsommon my pets, and anytheif that comes by will assume i'm not there and not even bother with detect, if i can get a 20 second chance between spawns, i'll go invisible, at least if a theif does try to 2 shot a camel, they'll hit it before me, and then i'll 2 shot them, but if they time it right after a bunch of ai theives spawn, i'm still just as open

and detect skills are kinda weak, they only have 10 meters, which in this game is basicly right next to them, it doesn't even cover the width of the const, so you have to know right where they are

but a hunter usually is forced into fights as they go, the theives get to pick and choose more, and being able to at a traffic point, stealthed and refreshing your stealth every 60 seconds or so, means you basicly don't fight something unless you want to, because even with detect skills you're still hard to find, and in the time they try to detect you, you still hit them

This is exactly why I prefer thief over hunter. For PvP anyway. The actual job of a hunter is much more fun.

IMO Rogues can play interesting mind games as a hunter, as in while hunting for a trader and the rogue knows a thief is coming the rogue could go invisible and make it look like the caravan is vulnerable. Once the thief gets near you pop out of nowhere and kill em, could imagine that would piss off the thief alot. Not to mention for hunting, the rouges range can help take out player thieves in the distance since there are player thieves that will try to distract the hunters from the caravan so the traders are left vunerable.

But rouges can work equally as well as thieves. Range can pick off hunters w/ their range and as stated before stealth can help you ambush or get away from bad situations.

It's your choice on what job you wanna do, but your skills can be suited for either job.
