Guild Wars 2

With the release of Druid I only think it appropriate that a new stat combo of items also be released containing Vitality, Toughness, and Healing Power.

You’d be a detriment to the team in my opinion. Every class has self heals, so you don’t need the healer to be focused purely on healing and surviving, even in raids. By taking 2 tanky stats on top of healing, you wouldn’t be good for anything other than healing/tanking (I wouldn’t want my tank distracted with trying to heal the party though, if you wanted to be the tank/healer).

To be honest, I can’t think of a single situation where this would be remotely useful except for maybe WvW zerg commander.

Sure, let’s release another stat combo that is junk. Actually even more junk than most any combo in game at the moment.

Then, a couple of weeks down the line, let’s complain that we now have x+1 stat combos that are not meta and get shuned by the player base…

Just out of curiosity, and before correcting you on it, just which game content would you want to use that stat combination in?

we have nomad’s – T/V/H

Guys, do remember that you don’t have to set ALL your gear to the same stats. Having this as an option for mix and match could let some people rebalance their stats to new challenges more easily.

Personally, I think they need to rework how stats are assigned to crafted armor so we can set them to what we want when we make it, rather than hoping that there’s a combo that matches what we want. But until that happens (aka: Never), more options isn’t really a bad thing, as long as they’re reasonable to use.

Just mix and match to get the stats you like, no real need to add this stat combination, imo.

Nomads, I think, would be better anyway. The high toughness would allow you to be both the tank and healer, leaving the other spot that would have been used for more DPS. At least for Gos anyway.

You do not want toughness. Healing, Power, Prec is what raids call for. Or a 4 stat Healing, Power, Precision, Expertise. If you want to heal tank run some cele trinks.

Minstrel would actually be a great set for a Druid Heal/Boon/Spirit/Buff Tank, too bad its so expensive to craft and nigh impossible to self-gather the Pearls for…

Well you have Toughness, Vitality and Healing Power. Its called Nomads (you prolly know this).
