Default -Health Superior Runes for a Warrior?

Well as a tank, health is critical, so is the use of major/superior runes recommended for a warrior that farms ?

So is +3 to an attribute worth the expense of health?

Help appreciated.

My warrior runs one superior rune <tactics, which are cheap> with the rest minors for skills and a major abs/vigor. Plus HP mods on weapons helps to cancel any second-thought of NOT using runes.

I say use at least one, more if comfortable, but I'm fine with all my builds with just one sup like I mentioned< tactics >

I hope this helped

It worked out well for me to stack a Sup Swordmenship rune on my armor.I wouldn't wear more than 1 at -75 health,that's for sure.

Doooo it =) You know you want too! That +3 without spending attributes rocks..allows for other specialization on-top of minor runes that deduct no HP <mind you, no two runes of the same type, thats a no-no!>

Although more expensive, wouldn't it make more sense to get superior runes of the other attributes you need to get higher? (knowing that many people onlyraise tactics to their shield req).

Lets say you're leveling tactics up to 8 to use your shield, the superior only raises the attribute level of tactics from 5 to 8. You're not saving as many attribute points to spend on other skills this way since if using a superior swordsmanship rune (for example) and you want swordsmanship up to say 12 and you raising it from level 9 to 12.

Personally, I think whatever attribute you put the most skill points into is the superior rune you should buy. that way you save more points to put into lesser attributes.

^ I agree.I go for shields that req strength.I have 0 points in tatics.But a runner that has alot of points in healing will benefit from a Sup tatics rune.

It all depends on your build. I've run 16 tactics before so have a sup tactics for it. Also have run high strength, axe and sword so have either superior or majors for each so can swap in/out the armor pieces I need for the build I want.

Only 1 rune > minor at a time though.

If your health drops below 75 ever, dont bring one. If it doesnt bring one.
