Resilience - useful or not?

I have a pretty straight forward question really. Is resilience worth taking? It only seems to give a fairly small res increase and a little protection from disorientation, which while useful on occasion, it would mean using a power slot that could be taken by something more useful.
Thoughts and comments gratefullly received.

I have it on my regen scrapper. The only real advantage it has is the disorient resistance as it allows you use awakens in combat, unfortunately it is disorient resistance ( reduces mez time ) not magnitude. I got it at quite high level ( 37 or 38 perhaps ) but as the disorient resistance increase with level it may not be worthwhile at lower levels. Try it out on the test server, get killed and then use an awaken to see whether it is good for you. I suspect it is a better power pick than revive, but I have never got that.

The damage resistance is pretty minimal, it may be worthwhile if stacked with tough though.

My advice is if there is a more useful power, you should get that instead.

Thanks for the feedback, pretty much confirms what I already thought.

But you could say it twice, just to make the point
