Guild Wars 2

I have 1 ascended cavalier ring and im thinking to swap it out for a soldiers ring, but now is the question what will do more damage on a crit? cause soldiers has some more power but cavalier has some ferocity but since nowadays ferocity isnt as important as power i doubt it will be that much more.

I prefer cavalier over soldiers on thief, but if it’s just one ring it won’t make too much of a difference. Every point of crit damage counts, but if you are less reliant on crits go for soldiers.

Depends on your total setup, without lots of precision ferocity is a poor stat, with a high enough crit chance, a cavalier piece for defense is ok. Soldiers has the best attack stat (power) as main and two solid defensive stats for survival so when looking for bits of survival on an power based set, Soldiers would have my preference. But I wouldn’t run to the merchant in a hurry to exchange the odd Cavalier piece for a Soldiers(provided I had a high crit chance already).

BERSERKER
because… you know.
Want to mix some survivability in? why not celestial then? with it’s amazing stat budget it provides pretty much the same defense with twice as many stats on the offense…
Besides that… full berserker. PVP WVW PVE doesn’t matter. Damage4life

go zerker … there isnt much difference between 2,2k thougness with 3,2k armour and 1,4k thougness with 2,6k armour on thief – you still receive same dmg crits – only noticeable difference is normal autoattack and non crit hits.

Cavalier – 2% dmg, 4% crit dmg, ~-5% incoming dmg.
Soldier – 3% dmg, ~660 health, ~-3% incoming dmg.

Cavalier will ofc deal more dmg on crit since it has both power and ferocity baked in.
However it’s more rewarding to pick power over ferocity, so if they actually add that gear with ferocity as a mainstat you will crit about same as if you were wearing berserker while berserker improves your overall dmg.
