Hit Points from Runes and Components...they're different!? - Guild Wars Forums

Vendui', y'all...

So...I'm trying to understand something that one of my mates was explaining, but I'm just not getting it...

HP from runes of Vigor are "on top of" your base HP, and HP from upgrades (like staff wrappings, heads, etc) are "under" your base HP.

Um...what?

I had a look around the forum and didn't see anything, but if someone's got a link to a good explanation of what this is all about, or they can quickly summarize it, I'd REALLY appreciate it!

Thanks,

Yl'

that person u were talking to has no clue what theyre talking about..

if u get a rune of minor vigor, u get +30HP and if u have any bonuses from your weapon, lets say +20HP. u end up with a total of +50HP.

Maybe they are talking about when the bonus is applied regarding death penalty and morale boost. From what I understand, all the morale/death modifiers are applied to the base value, then the rune/item mods are applied.

i have been corrected. sledge is totally right. morale and penalty are applied to the base life and then runes are then applied afterwards.
