What is the best damage rune for a WvW staff ele? I know some say to use Scholar runes – the ones that give +10% damage when your health is over 90% (though, really, when is your health always over 90% in fights? Especially WvW), but what about infiltration runes – deal +12% damage when opponent’s health is below 50%? Or Berserker runes that give a permanent +5% damage?

I don’t really know what is best. Please help!

To make it as simple as possible, The best way to get damage is to maximize your power stat. It’s been proven to have better overall damage than investing in crit damage/crit chance. That being said, I would try to shoot for 50% crit chance. If you are looking into reliable damage that isn’t so dependent on your health I would look into pack runes or strength runes.
