Basically the title.

Long time player who mostly does casual open world content. Celestial gear can be pretty fun for open world content, and I like the of having only one set of armour per character. Though I believe the fact that celestial armour has toughness somewhat negates its usefulness in endgame content?

This is mostly on the context of a celestial firebrand.

Thanks for any insight!

It depends on the profession/build how much you can benefit from Celestial Gear. Obviously Hybrid builds benefit the most. In Open World and Story Misssion builds suited for celestial gear provide a lot quality of life. Another area where celestial gear/builds shins is WvW (roaming).

And even in so-called endgame content, e. g. Raids, (CM) Strike Missions and (CM) Tier 4 Fractals, I would suggest to find other people to play with, if your group complains about you running a celestial build. Assuming of course that your build is suited for celestial gear and you know what your are doing.
