Q:
Anyone utilizing superior runes of radiance?
A:
I tried these runes.
Fluctuated between 0/2/0/6/6 (Group Fury+Swiftness), 0/0/2/6/6 (Group Protection), and 0/2/2/6/4 (Both group buffs at the cost of Evasive Arcana).
I ran this in WvW with D/D and it was… okay. I think I had around 7 seconds of Frost Aura which was cool. I dropped the experiment after a few hours (Kept the armor though).
I really wanted to try Radiance Runes in sPvP because I believe Aura sharing is stronger there than in zergs (and I could never get a havoc group going in WvW).
If anyone used these runes to better effect, let us know.
I’m running a 4/6/4 hybrid Aura build with Lightning Rod in solo PvE. Weapons are S/F (since Focus is awesome with Lightning Rod) and utilities are all Signets. I didn’t like 6 in Earth too much since the passive effects of Signets aren’t that great and the boons through Auras easily compensate for them. The damage and survivability is quite nice. It is more of a fun build, though.
I have a set with the tune that I used as an experiment for a wvw frontline build. Basically it was the standard 0/2/0/6/6 build but I built water into removing condo on water attunement and to share auras. I also used d/f ( i preffer focus over dagger offhand) but I guess it really works for d/d as well you’re just trading fire aura for frost aura.
In the end it worked ok. Had prema swiftness due to all the auras. Didn’t notice much of a difference when it comes to survivability. The extra 1-2 seconds on each aura didn’t really do much.
I use it sometimes. its fun
Thank you all for your help
