So against absorbing enemies and bosses it's even less, which doesn't look too stellar against the base 12k damage on my guardians.

That's quite a statement, how far did you get into the game? Runemaster can only be topped if you have GG crafted jewels in all slots ready to replace Hem/Iu runes, which is way later than anyone can tolerate playing Shaman.


Good to know, i'll just toss the one i have down into a stat point. I was just wondering if it was worth in any way.. and yeah like you said Guardian doing 12k+ at 125 with Specialization anyway, 600 isnt much.. and true the crafted jewels take quite a bit of rolls to be very good. It just that i find the runemaster trait underwhelming right now. But still a rookie to the whole barb class.

I'm just making the statement with my current observation, and first time playing a summon barb, which is performing quite well just
