If you have an AT that can't easily cap its own HP via accolades, then HP bonuses are handy. Damage, Acc, and Recharge are also top priorities in most cases.
"the reason there are so many sarcastic pvpers is we already had a better version of pvp taken away from us to appease bad players. Back then we chuckled at how bad players came here and whined. If we knew that was the actual voice devs would listen to instead of informed, educated players we probably would have been bigger dicks back then." -ConFlict
M'kay. So you can get 20% more hp through accolades.
If this information about hitpoints on Paragon Wiki is still accurate then it looks like blasters and stalkers only need around another 30% to reach the cap while everyone else is looking at about an extra 40% or more beyond the accolades.
But mostly Damage, Accuracy and Recharge? Thanks.

It should be noted that WP stalkers don't even need that.
Also, HP bonuses aren't affected by DR (currently), thus why they are considered important. When damage is all that matters and healing can hurt more than it helps at times, you'll want all of the non-DR'd mitigation you can get.

Very good point. Very, very good.
Much appreciated.

SHORT VERSION:
Which IO bonuses are good for pvp and does this vary depending on the archtype?
MID-LENGTH VERSION:
So, I was just looking over a few builds posted in the forums and considering what bonuses to aim for on any characters I take into pvp.
A strong focus on Recharge and Accuracy seem popular for nearly all builds and archtypes, are any exceptions to this.
Also, it's my understanding that defence is far less effective as it once was, so aiming for a high ranged defence bonus isn't something that's done now. Is this correct?
Finally, considering the available bonuses and the assorted types of damage, is it as ridiculous to aim for damage resistance bonuses as I think it is?
