Which is better for a glass cannon build?

Ruby Orb
- 20 power
- 2% crit damage
- 14 precision

Superior Rune of the Scholar
- 25 power
- 3% crit damage
- 50 power
- 5% crit damage
- 90 power
- 10% damage while health is above 90%

Thanks, love the community

Well let’s see here. Ruby orb times 6.
20 power x 6 = 120 power
2% crit damage x 6 = 12% crit damage
14 precision x 6 = 84 precision

Superior Rune of the Scholar times 6
25 power + 50 power + 90 power = 165 power
3% crit damage + 5% crit damage = 8% crit damage
10% damage while health is above 90%.

Are you perhaps missing something here? What is the skill or skills you’re comparing? What are your other stats?

Hi, appreciate the response, I’m in full beserkers gear as well as +power +precision +crit damage build, along with beserker accessories.

Was pretty much asking opinions on that 10% damage, really trying to do as much damage as possible….

Im thinking that my precision is high enough and that I crit quite often, but its only at 50% in rare’s, Im asking because Iam about to purchase my exotic set

You could always use an orb instead of the 6th rune.

I can give you exact damage that you’re going to gain if you give full decription of your stats (power, critical chance, critical damage) without any runes in place. Also name one skill you’re going to use.

If your going glass cannon your probably more interested in the superior runes of the eagle.

+25 Precision
+3% Crit damage
+50 Precision
+5% Crit damage
+90 precision
+5% vs targets with less than 50% health.
