I’m running a grenadier engineer, mixed with berserker, knight, one valkyrie and one soldier piece, wurm runes. Basically I wanted balance the stats more or less, so now I have:

41% base crit chance (running +10 precision/stack sigil though, but considering changing to bloodlust)
55% crit damage
2374 Armor
18400-ish HP
3200-ish power.

I usually never play glass canon build, so I am not sure how much difference the extra 400 toughness actually will make, or if it’s more worth to get higher crit/crit damage. I’ve considered changing for more knights and cavalier pieces. But running with only base 15000 hp feels kinda low. Although I use both med kit, elixir gun and Kit refinement trait, so the condition removals shouldn’t be a problem and therefore I think more thoughness could compensate for the HP loss. We also have perma (more or less) HP bonus from guild upgrade. I’ve realized that I have same amount of armor as my ele and she’s full PVT gear with some cavalier as well.

So.. How much toughness would you guys think is worth getting to make a difference, but without loosing too much on DPS part?

If unsure, just grab as much Toughness as you want but grab Energized armor so that Toughness feeds into power.
