I suppose if you use on a warrior with rousing resilience traited you can get some nice heals on a stun break.
yup, but Durability or Defender runes are much better for warrior (roaming)
Not having tried them I will reserve opinion.
From what I see there no cooldown on the extra heal on the tempest runes so the base heal is higher then Defender . Defender has that added regen and the Aegis but the heal on a 30 second cooldown. That Aegis also comes at the expense of using a heal which you might not want to do if you traited with Signet.
On the surface those two look competitive especially if you put Tempest on a roaming condition build as they give 15 percent added condition duration whereas the only stat benefiting off Defender is the heal.
The heal on the tempest also hits allies so unless there in fact a cooldown for that stunbreak heal , the raw heals from Tempest should be significantly greater. A bunker type build that might work is one using Rousing resileince in a Condition build wherein one uses Settler stats on armors. In theory you can push a stunbreak heal on self near 5k every time you break stun.
ive used all 3 runes and my preferred for small group roaming is still durability while using some boon duration armor. When roaming in a 5 man group where at least 3 of you have durability runes, you will have over 60% uptime on protection and regen.
With defender runes and using a sigil of concentration on the shield I will have permanent regen boon if I use my shield 5 properly.
Tempest rune problem is that you almost want to drop Eternal Champion for bloody roar other wise the stability uptime is so good you will rarely need to use a stun break and so you don’t really get the heal that often.

I currently use Durability power warrior. When I suggested Tempest it for a condition warrior who would use king of Fires as GM trait so would get stunned more as there low stability. They would break stuns via outrage and savage instinct.
Needless to say Condi cleanse would be low if they took rousing over cleansing ire meaning said warrior might have to find another means to hep with that (ie sigils)
in theory you would get stunned a lot and can recover from the same with a break stun frequently for that 1000 armor and tempest/rousing heal.
Alernatively you can get take that cleansing ire yet still get a nice heal off a stun break via the tempest rune. The heal should be close to what a shout warrior might get.
A break stun on a shout with a shout heal warrior in these runes traited for rousing could be interesting as well but I am not sure it doable without losing too much damage.
This a build IN THEORY. the stun break heal off tempest would be about 2200 per break added to those others.
