    Given that Boromir died after three arrows, and Faramir lived after two, we can safely conclude that it would have taken at least three arrows to kill him.

    Therefore, Faramir is at minimum as tanky as Boromir.

      Plus that nasty Nazgûl shadow magic Faramir had to deal with whilst Boromir only faced mundane orks & uruks.

        Faramir clearly has a magic resistance buff, whereas Boromir has higher DPS. Personally, I’d also choose Boromir.
