Is there a reason we cant get a gear stat set with Power, Healing, Vitality and/or X?

[Opopanax.1803]

Is there a reason that Anet hasnt implemented a stat set with Power, Healing, Vitality? Are they worried about too much of a bunker for a healer build?

At this point I feel like not having that stat set really hurts the low HP classes like Ele and Guardian.

My only thought is that while they wouldnt mind for Ele and Guardian to have this, that they are worried that it would make the high HP classes like Scourge, Warrior, etc a lot harder to cap. And if it is the case, may I suggest that they simply deal with the balance of base HP rather than being ultra-restrictive on stat sets?

The confusing part of this is that they do already have Condi / Healing / Vitality gear sets, so this seems like this issue should be moot (NORN!).

Am I missing something here?

I personally would like to see Power/Healing > Vitality/Conc and Power > Healing/Vitality

will see that will brings EoD exp. May be some new stat, or new socket, or new combination

Yes, there is. You know what you did.

But seriously, that's a thing that could happen.Also, Celestial exists. Have fun with that.

you do know that your entire equipment dosnt need to be of the same stat, right?maybe we get something like that with the next few releases, you never know :V

Same reason we don't have a stat with condi damage/healing/exp/conc. Would be too popular..

Who would use that set? Power without precision is bad. Pve needs concentration and minstrel is better for wvsw.

I think vitality tones down the combo. The issue with the combo that you mentioned is that it gives you a great offensive set, and also the best healing/boon set.

Vitality is much more of a standalone stat that doesn't play off of any others, it just gives you more margin for error. I think my proposed seta would be less OP by a substantial amount.

And you don't think that for a firebrand in harriers it might not be nice for those of us less skilled to mix in a Power > Heal, Vit? I know I would like that option.

That is 33% since August 2018

Most classes have some sort of +critical strike chance trait.

For PvE/WvW there is also Superior Sigil of Vision. If you weapon swap on CD that is effectively a 33% crit chance. For burst builds and properly executed rotation that might effectively be a higher percent as well
