NH has the data from his code on how much 1 point of agi changes the calculations. You are welcome to run 10k iterations and arrive at that same number, but we already know what the end point is.

I believe 1 point of agi is ~3% difference, NH can correct me on that though. Is that worth it to you? That's up to you to decide!

40% is base right now in PVP.
1 point is 2% at the moment. So this means 18 agi vs 23 agi is 50% vs 30%. (aka 23 agi will hit 18 agi at 50%, 18 agi will hit 23 agi at 30%).

Ok, cool. So is 2% worth a point?

Well.

Sometimes yes it will be, sometimes it won't be. There are going to be plenty of times that you land 1 extra hit because of that 2% and you win the fight, and there will be plenty of times you miss the attack anyway and still lose. There are also plenty of times having 1 extra end would have saved you, but again plenty of times where it wouldn't have mattered. That's the decision you have to make.

Armor is another discussion imo. I gotta say that anecdotally 75ac with a shield doesn't feel strong at all, but I'm waiting for full oads to worry too much about balance.

Yes will be interesting when the OaDs start and we are all geared. we have been dueling most of the day now and its all seeming quite balanced. Have not been able to test much with a slayer however.
