Yes, it affects PvE. Yes, the additional HHP is worth it, it helps you take more hits in anything that deals damage (particularly considering PvE, PvP (especially bow hits) and mining accidents. Go life imo. no doubt,

Full life is better than full death, in all honesty, even if you're a PKer.

The grievous damage done to animals with a ranged weapon is always like 10% of what you can do with normal damage, so while a 20% increase sounds great, it's likely going to come to 3-5 damage tops until you're using a good quality ranger bow. In the end it's not going to make any real difference.

I thought Grievous Damage = HHP damage? In which case it wouldn't apply to hunting.

Grievous damage is useless, you can kill the other guy easily enough once you knock him down even with a -20% penalty. So yeah, go for those HPs.

They don't, but when you use a ranged weapon it still does "HHP damage" and "SHP damage" doesn't it?. It just pools them together at the end. The "HHP damage" is usually incredibly small and the boost doesn't do enough to matter.

No it does no HHP damage, since anmilas don't have HHP. It just shows a number.
