Between ruby orbs, scholar runes,divinity runes and maybe eagle runes.
Ignoring the price difference, what is best for full zerker setup, general PvE dungeons and stuff, some FotM, light WvW roam.

Ruby orb, even if you are Wethospu.
Divinity is well-rounded. Eagle, just nope You can hit 95% + crit chance without them.
Scholar is better if you can stay above 90%. Good luck with that. Even the best of the best solo-Pve warriors rarely stay above that. If you go pure ranged, then sure.

Ruby, in both cost and use, is best for a Berserker set up.

Scholars if you stay above 90% over 25% of time. For me that sounds quite likely.

Hmm, maybe I haven’t watched enough of your videos.
I stand corrected.

I’m not sure if on my solos I meet that requirement but should be much much easier on full team.

Anyways I used buildcraft to test numbers in extreme case (best stuff, lots of buffs, etc).
With Scholars I got : 14730.42 EffectivePower.
With Scholars (without 10% bonus) I got: 13391.3
With Orbs I got: 13763.57

So 14730.42*uptime + 13391.3 * (1-uptime) > 13763.57
(14730.42-13391.3) * uptime > 13763.57-13391.3
1339.12 * uptime > 372.27
uptime > 0.28 = 28%

So that 25% was bit low estimate, 30% is bit more safer bet. Of course it depends on your stats, etc.
But it’s also good to keep in mind that you don’t have to have that upkeep on every fight as long as you have fights with high uptime.

Ruby Orbs are cheap though.

4 Ruby Orbs and 2x Superior Runes of Rage works really well. Without food, I have 97% permanent crit chance, and 87% crit damage.
