so, details:
 
test creature: Light spire siege main boss
31.5% crit rate, with crit aura
on jabbit this set is worth like 3.7p * 20
 
result:
 
 
 
worth it? at the moment not rly, not till they boost its proc rate
those of u that already have it, are you happy with its current state?

Honestly very few of the rune sets are worth anything. Haste/Scepter (4 piece) is pretty much the ones you want.
 
Other than that raw AP/SP is pretty much better in everyway. (as a healer u dont even need focus regen either)

Medic DPS.
 
Ran it for a bit. ~25 DPS....half what Fire starter 20/20 does. Ended up going back to 12/20. Slotted 4/12 specter and slotted 4 reg crit runes. Don't have Haste, but will run it once I get the runes.

I'll cross-post this from Reddit:

Don't buy those rune sets!
They're identical to the lower sets in every way except one: the set bonus at 20.
 
(20) Fire Starter: Landing a Critical Hit creates a 6m field that lasts for 6.0s that deals 145 damage every 1.0s to foes. Can only occur every 10.00s.
 
(145 damage * 6 ticks)/(10 seconds) = 87 DPS MAX.
 
Yes, it's AOE, but that pretty much means diddly in raiding because the AOE only really helps a paltry bit with trash and your raid shouldn't be having problems with trash anyway.
 
(20) Shadow Blast: Landing a Critical Hit grants a 5% chance to deal an additional 1207 magic damage that spreads to 4 foes within 6m.
 
Ok, let's use an example fight. During an X-89 kill, one of our medics belted out 1,436 hits using various abilities which can crit. Your average DPS medic has a crit rate of about 30%. Then this proc only goes off 5% of those times.
 
0.3 * 0.05 * 1207 * 1436 = 25,998.78 damage.
 
That is nothing compared to the amount of HP X-89 has. That particular medic did 2.65 million damage that fight. That would amount to ~ 0.1% more damage overall.

Hi guys, hi carbine,
 
this thread is getting old. Are there any plans fixing elder-runes so that they actually make sense?
 
fyi:
