I’m pretty sure it hasn’t always been this way. I’m currently in a cleared w3 instance with a 1000 vitality Revenant and my hp is 17,916 instead of the baseline 15,922. A guildmate verified my observation on his engineer in a non-cleared w2 intance reporting the same HP numbers. That extra tankiness is explained by the 8% max HP boost that Desolation has reached through wvw.
Please fix this asap, the extra HP makes the tighter encounters significantly less sensitive to errors and that way waters down the whole raid experience. Furthermore it is pretty weird that the difficulty of the raid varies vastly depending on the day of the week and the success of your server in a completely unrelated game mode.
Edit: attached a screenie. I also went through some old screenshots (newest ones from about 3 weeks ago) in which regardless of class and build I always had the profession baseline HP regardless of the day of the week. This definitely seems like a bug that was recently introduced, and in a screenshot from last Friday I can see my warrior have an elevated HP in and uncleared instance of w3.
