Toughness is one of a character's Core Stats. It is defined as a number between 1 and 100.
Your toughness determines your ability to withstand physical and magical attacks and also affects you maximum HP. Some perks are only available at certain levels of toughness. It is similar to what is called "Vitality" or "Constituion" in other games.
Each point of toughness provides 2 points of health. The Tank 2 perk provides 1 additional point of health for each point of toughness.
