I was wondering what would have a bigger damage output with the elite skill Vow of Strength

16 scythe mastery
12 Earth (+41% Damage )

Or

12 scythe mastery
16 Earth (+ 53% Damage )

Current build:

Shadow burden
Asuran Scan
Vow of Strength
"Dodge This!"
"By Ural's Hammer!"
mystic regen
Aura of Holy Might
Ressurect sig

meh u get the point... trying to get max damage

There's this guy in game that can answer that for you. Since we don't know how you button mash and both those runes are so cheap, why don't you just pay him a visit?

I don't use superior runes except for necros but.... The weapon stat is more important due to the level determining armor penetration (minor after 12) and chances for critical hits (+ 4 to weapon = roughly 11% more crits) The gain in damage output from VoS is not high enough and is to easily stripped imho to justify raising earth prayers vs scythe mastery.
