Guild Wars 2

Hi folks!

I’m sure this info is somewhere in the forum, but I just can’t find it.

Does anyone know if the life force pool in Death Shroud is a fixed amount, or based on your vitality?

I ask, because I’m working on a deathshroud build and if it’s a static amount, it seems I’d be better off putting more emphasis on toughness rather than vitality.

But if t\it’s based on our normal life pool, then vitality would seem the way to go.

Anybody know?

Thanks for the help!

As of the last time I checked this (there was quite the thread on it once!) Life Force is a percentage of your standing health, so vitality will increase its size. (I believe death shroud’s ‘health’ total is around 60% with 0 points in Soul Reaping, and 60% * 1.3 = 78% with full SR.)

Vitality boosts lifeforce but it will reduce your effective healing. Toughness reduces the damage you take in DS aswell as outside and will improve your effective healing. Basically they both scale in DS. Id always recommend toughness unless you want to survive burst and arent worried about healing. If however we get a way to heal with lifeforce eventually then id say vitality could become better.
