taking HP is generally more effective against burst casters, as their damage is limited to a curtain amount per interval. sustained DPS'ers deal roughly the same amount of damage each second (<-captain obvious here), making building HP less effective then against bursters.

I'd say that getting a strong CC will benefit you more then additional defencive stats.
