Formula Explained
The health calculation in Guild Wars 2 is based on the following formula:
Health Formula
Total Health = Base Health + (Constitution × 10) + Profession Bonus + Additional Bonuses
Where:
- Base Health - Your character's starting health value
- Constitution - Your character's Constitution attribute (each point adds 10 health)
- Profession Bonus - Additional health granted by your profession
- Additional Bonuses - Health from gear, buffs, or other sources
This formula accounts for all the factors that contribute to your character's total health in combat.
Worked Example
Let's calculate the health for a Warrior with the following stats:
- Base Health: 1200
- Constitution: 150
- Profession Bonus: 100 (Warrior gets +100 health)
- Additional Bonuses: 200 (from gear and buffs)
Using the formula:
Calculation
Total Health = 1200 + (150 × 10) + 100 + 200 = 1200 + 1500 + 100 + 200 = 3000
This Warrior would have a total health pool of 3000 points.
Interpreting Results
Your calculated health value represents your character's total health pool in combat. Here's what the different components mean:
| Component | Impact |
|---|---|
| Base Health | The foundation of your health pool |
| Constitution | Each point adds 10 health (150 points = +1500 health) |
| Profession Bonus | Profession-specific health bonuses |
| Additional Bonuses | Health from gear, buffs, and other sources |
Understanding these components helps you optimize your character's health for different playstyles and situations.
