User blog comment:Colin HEX/How High Should Y8ur Defence Points Be?/@comment-183.178.157.212-20150528123738

Hello Colln HEX. I dunno how expereinced you are in SAS so I'll just give the most detailed explanation.

First, you might wanna see if you have invested any points in Toughness (the damage reduction one, not the extra health) and Body Armor Expert. The latter is by far the most important skill of the Heavy because at level 25 (which you should invest in) it nearly triples your armor value.

For level 100 heavies, the most optimal number is 20,000 in every stat. That gives exactly 99% damage reduction (it's impossible to attain 100%) But if you ask for priorities of the three stats, I would suggest Physical and Thermal Defense. All three are important but Physical attacks are definitely most seen, while Thermal attacking zombies and bosses (Fiery Skin Zombies, Red Necro spaawn, Wickers, Zombie Mech) are more frequent than Toxic ones (only Spitters, which have negligible damage, Green Necro spawn and Regurg puke). I personally think thermal attacking ones deal more damage too.

As for your current stat and level, i can't give any info, since i don't know your skill investment and armor.
