Hey guys,

I can’t decide which runes i should get. It’s hard for me to make money so im trying to get the best out of what i can. I’m currently a D/D and SB Thief. I’m using full Berserker Emblazoned Set. and a few valkyrie/berserker acc for health I currently have one rune of divinity on but since i have returned from my break, each rune is 7g!!!. I was wondering if i should swap over to scholar runes because i found that i lack damage and power. So what is the pro and cons of getting divinity Vs Scholar cause the +10 stats to all didn’t seem to help that much.

Current Stats:

Power: 2257
Precision: 1736
toughness: 926
Vit: 1107

Attack: 3207
Crit Chance/ Damage : 43% / 92
Armor: 1990
health: 12,715

Thanks!

If budget is any issue at all, go with ruby orbs. Keep the rune of divinity you already have, or salvage it with a black lion kit and sell it on TP.

Divinity has the highest total stats, but they’re spread out. They’re good if you want a little extra defence while still keeping your damage output really high.
Scholar is only good if you’re full HP most of the time.

Ruby orbs are fine, really. They have lower all around stats than divinity, but higher offence. And the best part is, they’re almost free.

Crit Damage -> Critical Strikes, equipment (berserker, valkyre) & runes/orbs

Scholar’s gives you the most damage on BS builds.

If you want glass its the best damage.

Valkyre has +Vit and Toughness is very low. Precision isn’t particularly high either, might better trade some of the crit damage in for Precision.

Yea like the person above me said. 105 crit damage on 40% chance isn’t really good. You can get more realible damge numbers getting some precision somewhere.

For damage Power is the best then its precision and then crit damage. In your case you need more precision and less crit damage or get some toughness somewhere.

If you like your setup cool but if you wanna optimize your stats you definitely have some free stuff to add by reducing that crit damage some.
