Deflection vs. HP's the final investment

Hello Everyone,

I'm just looking to survey some opinions of other near BIS GF's.

Unfortunately, I don't seem to run into many equally geared GF's in game (maybe due to play time or when I play + I'm usually who is tanking in the party) so am looking to some other folks insights.

So with the introduction of the Deepknight's Brigandine, I feel like I have a bit more room stacking stats other than Hps.

Currently self buffed I'm running around with approximately 195k hps. This is with no Guild HP boon, so I primarily use Defense Boon in Party.

I could push this around 205k if I went Rads instead of Gigantic in Defensive Slots.

Right now I'm at approximately 63% Deflection without significant investment. Basically using Gigantic's instead of Radiant on non-bonding Defensive Slots and picking the 3% Deflection Feat vs. 3% Arm Pen Feat.

I could drop about 5k Hps and do a few gear changes that would allow me to have 70% and if I was crazy to grab an Armored Bulette that could go as high as 80+%

Just for reference, here would be the approximate stats in each scenario. Self Buffed

I'm Conqueror with 10 in Protector and 5 in Tac, primarily using Demo Artifact Set.

Current:

195k Hps
52k Power
80% Crit
85% Def
63% Deflect
35% AP Gain

Where I think I might want to go:

190k Hps
52k Power
80% Crit
85% Def
72% Deflect
35% AP Gain

Major Investment: (This would require dropping Crushing Pin to pick up Devoted Protector and Acquiring of an Armored Bulette)

190k Hps
50k Power
70% Crit
95% Def
85% Deflect
35% AP Gain

So primarily I'm thinking of trading 5k hps for about 10% more deflect and in the major overhaul edition about 2k Power, 10% Crit, & Crushing Pin to gain about 20% Deflect.

My primary motivation here... is about gaining additional mitigation while using KV. I'd also switch to Valhalla Set for trash (which is when I would expect to mostly run KV), although I sometimes wonder if the 2% heal versus 3% damage reduction from Seldarine versus Valhalla is better with heavily mitigated damage. Since believe the 10% trigger is calculate pre-mitigation.

4kish Heal vs. 1500 Damage Reduction per Valhalla Stack (using an arbitrary # of a 50K hit pre-mitigation from trash)

Anyways...

Thank you to everyone in advance.
