But speaking about that, did you take into account the 5% stats raid buff to compare Strength vs Power ?

No, and that's a good point, ty.

I've updated the post to include the 5% stat buff

Thank you also for the feedback, I just wanted to put up a few thoughts as the original post is a bit out of date.

That looks like a more difficult call. Initially I would have thought power but now I would say Strength.

Advanced Might Augment 22

18 Strength (18.9 with 5% Primary Stat buff)
12 Endurance

Bonus Damage: 3.78
Crit Chance: 0.12% (assuming we're at the 1495 Strength =~10% crit mark, 1% of crit would require 149.5 strength, or 14.95 strength for each 0.1% crit increase)


Advanced Overkill Augment 22

18 Power
12 Endurance

Bonus Damage: 4.14
Crit Chance: 0.00%


So the difference between taking a Power Augment over a Strength Augment is:

+ 0.36 Bonus Damage
- 0.12% Crit


Compared to how minimal a loss to Bonus Damage that is, and the very low diminishing returns on the Crit Chance you gain from Strength, the Strength Augment is what I would choose.

Updated with a more definitive answer.
