health vs damage mods? - Guild Wars Forums

Sorry if this has been answered elswehere. I did a search but the closest I came was like 300 threads.... I don't have the time to go through them all. I flicked through a few of the more promising but never really got an answer...

I'm wondering what you'd consider the better axe.. Remembering I'm only lvl 9, doing PvE and only a small way through the game... choices are:

Furious Axe of CharSlaying
5-12 damage
Double Adrenaline on hit: 10% chance
+15% damage to Charr

or

Ascalon Axe of Fortitude
5-12 damage
+25 health

right now I've only died a few times (stupid henchies. LOL) and don't seem to get close to dying all that too often, so not sure if the +hp bonus is worth loosing the small chance of extra drenaline as well as bonus damage vs charr...

As I said, I looked for an answer.. but everyoone just talks about max weapons and end game weapons and mods and stuff. I'm not interested in that.

I'm at/near the start (in post-searing) and looking to improve my weaponry the good old fashioned way - earn it myself without buying it off a player (assuming I could even afford it that is.. LOL). The axe of fortitude is from a collector just outside of Serenity Temple if that helps let you know just how "far" I am... hahahaha :P

Use the first axe when you are fighting charrs and the second when you are fighting other stuff.

Duh.. why didn't I think of that. Heh, I'm so used to playing other games where it can be a pain to switch weapons and such. GW makes it nice and easy with 4 wespon sets. hehehe.
