Guild Wars 2

Hi all.
I’m playing 60 lvl guardian, have just bought the last trait book and have problem with 1 minor trait skill.
The problem is i have skill that says “gain 1s of vigor each time you critical hit”.
Wiki says vigor only regens endurance (http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Vigor)
But is it really all it does? Heard it adds an extra swing to your attack. Is it true?
Because just tiny endurance regen isn’t worth 5 trait points for me.

Thx.

Trungalung.7850, gabo.6721, thanks for quick response, pals!

But there’s one more thing i really would like to know. How fast my endurance will grow? For example: I have 0 endurance and gain 1s of vigor. And what my situation will be after 1s?

It’s ballpark, 10 endurance per second, give or take a hair.

So imagine double that. With enough crit, it makes for some pretty absurd dodge streaks.

It only increases endurance regen and it’s not “tiny”. It’s 100% for god sake. It is one of the best trait we get as guardians, and with decent crit, it’s a permanent boon. It also has good synergy with Altruistic Healing, Power of the Virtuous, and Selfless Daring.

What ^he^ said. Ask yourself, how often do you need to roll? If the answer is “a lot! i don’t wanna be squished by taking too much damage! i want to survive and win! rawr!” then congrats because then you found a good supporting trait.

You shouldnt invest 5 points just for it. But it should always come “free” in many builds because people put points in honor anyways for the shout cooldown reduction, symbol size increase, or 2handed weapon cooldown reduction.

I love this trait. If you have ever done Giganticus in Arah Explorable Mode, you will enjoy having that extra endurance to dodge.

Martym.6971, ok, gonna try this. And thanks for numbers. So its near 10s to fully recharge, plus endurance recharges by itself… May actually work. And i’m planning to spend my future points on critical chance + cond. damage, anyway you never know until you try.
Thx again everybody!

Remember…. when you get this boon through ‘Vigorous Precision’ (guardian trait) this is only when you crit. So if you have a high crit build you will notice it, if you don’t, then not so much.

This combined with Sigils of Energy give you some pretty awesome damage mitigation and health recovery
