Guild Wars 2

Assuming 100 percent crit, when would adding ferocity instead of power make more sense?

Just trying to get a a maximum spike. So Precision is not a factor here as i’m not talking about damage per second but maximum spike damage.

Any help on this topic would be appreciated.

Any optimal ratios?

Sacrifice power for ferocity is never a good idea.
You will always want more power, you’ll want lower your precision to have ~100% with fury and leave some space for other sources of precision like banner/spotter/food , so about 65~70% crit is a good spot to be, and after that you try to balance ferocity.

You get power capped due to level scaling sometimes. For example if you go into AC explorable you will find that your power is capped at 720. Only during those times would it be better to stack more ferocity imo.

Oh true, but make build thinking about under scaled content is a huge mistake, in those cases I suggest just picking foods that gives ferocity instead of power.
