What is your opinion/criticism/advices etc on this rune set?
I know most of the players here dont like it and believe there are far better options, however having enought money to experiment i gave it a go. I also used ruby orbs and soldier runes.

It really is not that bad, not that bad atll… Infact its actually really good. It provides with just that little extra defensive and survivalb utillity to just either save myself, survive longer, or able to produce full HB + whirling to produce high damage in high fractals. I used to be limited with range in high fractals, but it actually saves me every 50s and helps deal some ridicolous damage.
I think warriors have enought damage utilliies they can use, and every creative way of providing survivability ( that also helps damage) is a bless for a warrior in high fractals.

I just love it, I find it adds great survivability with the extra boons and condi remonval on elite. Superior runes of lyssa + signet of stamina + signet of rage + signet mastery = 0 conditions most of the time. Lose a little on the DPS front but it fits my play style.

Be careful what you wish for, Anet might just give it to you “HoT”

I used to run boon, and the most difference is in signet if rage duration: 42sec vs 35 sec. Sofar the trade off is worth it, as you get a lot of other benefits. More testing required though.

Good for sustain. And massive clearing. Plus you get free stability for popping your elite=nice spike.

I used to run my build with those runes too, using axe/mace What is worth mentioning is that it has a good synergy with the trait Empowered, giving you a 2% damage increase for every boon on you – so you get another 18% more damage for roughly 5-6 seconds, meaning that an eviscerate right after your signet activation hurts reeeaaally really bad :P

Runes of Lyssa works great when combined with Empowered Trait (Adept in Tactics line). +2% damage per boon + all boons for 5 sec (Aegis, Fury, Might, Protection, Regeneration, Retaliation, Stability, Swiftness, and Vigor) = +18% damage for 5 seconds.

(EDIT: Aegis will drop quickly from being hit once, especially true in melee combat, but +16% for most of that time is great.)
