Guild Wars 2

Hey, this is probably a silly question but I noticed that the amount of HP that my character has in the red circle (in my case 19,446) differs from the amount of HP that the character tab shows (18,345). How is this possible? At this moment I’m only using Signet of Air, which gives me a passive move speed bonus and Aura of Restoration, which heals me every time I cast a skill, as you can see in my boon window.

I’m probably missing something very obvious here. o-o

Your base HP will go up or down depending on how well your server is doing on WvW.

Just checked mine and it’s 1268 higher than my base stat.

Our servers WvW is +7% for robust (HP) at the moment and working that out, 7% added to my base stat is correct.

So base 17112 + 7% = 19380

Oooh. o.o And does that mean my server is doing good or bad? I played games where when a server/nation was doing good they would get buffs, but I also played games where underpopulated and/or losing servers/nations would get a buff.

Press “B” and look at the percentage for “Robust”, I would guess your on +6%

You will also see all the other “buffs” you get.

Make sure your actually level 80 when you calculate it and not downlevelled.

Click on the WvW tab on your UI in the upper left. Your server’s status will be displayed as well as those of the 2 servers your world is competing with.

The buff doesn’t really tell you much about how well your server is doing. You need to check the score for that. The buffs never decrease except during WvW reset which is at the same time as the Friday→Saturday daily.

It tells you how good they’re doing in a broader sense, because the more points you rack up the faster the buffs will be learned up, so thus you would have more. But you’re right, it’s not a true sense of “how are we doing at this moment” and also right about it never dropping, so it only says if you did good at one point, not that you’re doing bad (or good) now.
