Guild Wars 2

Title says it all.
Do you think that Demolisher Amulet with its lower health but higher toughness and thus much more effective self-healing, (better DPS survival) is worth it versus Marauders biger health, thus less effective healing but better Condi survival?

No. A bit of extra toughness isn’t worth losing that much health, which boosts your defense against both power builds and condition builds.

Well I thought the same, but when I tried Demolisher I noticed that even that few of extra toughness is really effective against DPS, even more than more health producted by Marauder.

Marauder is still better, especially considering you’re a thief whose main defense is not getting hit in the first place; that’s your best method of avoiding damage. Vitality will help you with both defense against condis and defense against power.

That actually makes sense, good point. Thanks
