prismatic vs single glyphs....

PlagueMonk · October 2015

Don't suppose anyone has done the calculations on what is the optimal setup or what you gain/lose with these glyphs? (the math is just beyond me because I'm missing some base data)

I'm only interested in the most common set up; Infused on head, chest, legs and divines on others, V16, all gold (including glyphs)

So if you did say all stamina, what would you gain/lose by going all prismatic instead? or what about a mixture?

Also what happens if you choose the Tower mundus for the prismatic? (will it still boost the stamina portion and is it worth it?)

I use 3 infused prismatic pieces usually, 4 with shield. You hardly lose damage from what I've noticed, but gain more survivalbility by having 3/4 prismatic and the rest divines or w/e with magicka/stamina. Here's a screenshot though of a prismatic glyph, with and without infused:

Prismatic glyphs give all three stats instead of one. You gain a total of 33% extra stats total, but only half as much of any one stat.

So basically, if you glyphed for all stamina, you might end up with 6k stamina. All prismatics would get you 3k stamina, 3k magicka, but also 3.5k health.

Prismatics seems useful for pvp builds trying to optimize survival/utility, and possibly pve tanks could use them for efficiency, but I wouldn't use them for a dps build.
