Guild Wars 2

Do Bolt to the Heart, ,Vital Striking, Earth’s Embrace, and Scholar Runes apply to total hp or base hp?

I ask because I have noticed that Earth’s Embrace activates when I am well beyond the 50% marker of my total hp.

Always total HP. Earth Embrace and Final Shielding are both a bit buggy so that they trigger well below their threshold (mostly because we have such a low healthpool that by the time the game registers you’re below 50% you’re WAY below the mark).

Okay. I was concerned since both Earth Embrace and Final Shielding are the only two traits that have a visual when they activate. It made me concerned as to whether the other traits were acting in a similar manner.
