Damage done = (Weapon strength) * Power * (skill-specific coefficient) / (target’s Armor)
that is the formula being used to calculate damage in Gw2.
After respositioning it, this is the formular for getting a Targets armor Value:
(target’s Armor) = (Weapon strength) * Power * (skill-specific coefficient) / Damage done

To perform the experiment you get a friendly engi from the neighborhood, invite him to a Arena, let him place his turrets one after another and hit them x amount of times with your auto-attack.
After that you look into your combat log, summarize the damage dealt and devide it by the amount of times you’ve attacked. that is your middle damage value.

Use this value as “damage dealt” in the above posted formula and fill in the other values from the Wiki page about the AA you’ve used.
Keep in mind that weapon-strength is another RNG factor, so simply use the middle-value there as well (900-1100 would be 1k flat, f.e.)

edit: give me some time and I will post a complete list in the next few hours, just need to perform this experiment with a friend.

edit 2: done with the experiment

Test-class:
Warrior
(no traits / dmg-modifiers selected)

Power:
1.908

Test-Skill:
Fierce Shot (Rifle AA)

weapon-strength:
986 – 1205 (1095.5) (exotic (we assumed that exotic weapons are being used as the Standard in sPvP but could not find any documentation on that to validate it))

Test-objects:
- all turrets were placed once and attacked until they got destroyed
- Auto-tool installation is the only active trait in this test to increase the data-pool

thumper:
544.45 (20 hits)

Peak values:
471 – 572

1095.5 * 1908 * 0.55 / 544.45 == 2111.42
________

rifle:
754.08 (12 hits)

rocket:
754.08 (12 hits)

net:
754.08 (12 hits)

healing:
754.08 (12 hits)

Peak values:
671 – 812

1095.5 * 1908 * 0.55 / 754.08 == 1524.53

(note: all 4 turrets turned out to have almost identical values, so the medium seed got copied over)
_________

flame:
748.66 (15 hits)

Peak values:
675 – 798

1095.5 *1908 * 0.55 / 748.66 == 1535.56
(note: Flame-turret also seems to have identical Armor values to the above 4 turrets, but has a increased health-pool)

Overall that means that Thumper has a estimated armor value of ~2100, and all others have ~1500. If you want it more accurate, increase the data pool by using other AA’s or more hits

Btw, can someone put this data into the wiki so people don’t need to ask again?
(Never fiddled with wikis myself)
