Protection Warrior stat priority
Each guide's stat order as it gives it, the sim's stat weights, then ours. Guides dated before the last big tuning are shown but not counted.

| Guide · 1 Oct PvE, level 20 · read 12 Oct | Weapon damage › Hit › Strength › Agility › Armor › Stamina › Crit |
| Sim · stat weights level 60 · run 12 Oct, 5,000 iterations | Per 1%: Expertise 3.76 › Crit 3.13 › Attack speed 2.28 Per point: Main-hand weapon DPS 0.999 › Strength 0.174 tied with Agility 0.172 › Block value 0.145 › Attack power 0.0757 › Armour penetration 0.0426 No DPS change in this run: Stamina, Hit, Defense skill, Block, Dodge, Parry, Armour, Bonus armour. The DPS each stat adds, for a level-60 character on the engine's preset gear in a 2-minute fight on a beta engine, for damage only: a direction, not a verdict. = marks a tie: stats within each other's margin. Not counted toward "Guides agree". Where they differ: ours puts Block value before Strength, which the sim weighs higher per point; ours puts Block value before Agility, which the sim weighs higher per point; the sim measured no DPS change from Stamina and Armor. |
| Ours Recommendation | Defense (until crit-immune) › Stamina › Armor › Hit or expertise › Block value › Strength › Agility Ours adds Defense (until crit-immune) and Block value, which neither guide lists. Where ours differs: ours puts Stamina before Armor, Hit or expertise, Strength and Agility, which both guides rank higher; ours puts Armor before Hit or expertise, Strength and Agility, which both guides rank higher. |
