What is the difference between golden and purple glyph of health?

I am running a stam DK, VR4 now, and I want to have more health and also more stamina. I will get new crafted set soon from my guild buddy, so I was thinking, what exactly is the difference in stats increase when using on armor a purple glyph of health VR5 and a golden one?

Is it worth the money for the golden glyph, or is the difference not so major?

    Kutas (legendary rune for enchants) are going for a pretty nice price right now on xbox 1 NA market. Regardless I personally will only put Kutas on end game gear. This gear you will only have for a certain amount of levels so I wouldn't invest heavily into it.

    882 is the base strenght of a purple V16 glyph of health, 954 for a golden glyph/ 72 health difference.

    It makes a small difference, if you have purple glyphs on all you gear or golden. It's not a game changer and you will not feel the difference. Gold glyphs are pure luxury and min-maxing. I don't think you need this, unless you have the gold to do so.

    well, 72 health difference is really not much.

    And the price for kutas is really high. Is there any chance of finding Kutas in any area of the map?

    ok, then, thank you.

    There is a really low chance to find one in red (aspect) runes. Finding red runes is especially likely in Cyrodiil caves. Not 100% like it used to be, there can also be blue and green ones. But usually red runes are more common after all.

    I mean, Kutas seem to cost 13k gold, more or less. Isn't that worth investing some time and searching for them ? I think it is ;) If it was a single player game, you would need to farm them on your own anyway and that's part of the game and you will just cheer every time you find one yourself :D believe me.

    It all depends on how fast your leveling. Since your not maxed out, if you level slower then you would benefit longer from the higher glyph and it's costs wouldn't make that much of a difference. If your leveling rather quickly, stick with the purples until you hit higher levels that take a lot longer.

    Not intentionally at least.
    But I recommend pvp caves. There are plenty of rune spawn places in a rather small area and they respawn fairly quickly.

    When I'm in Bruma and do pvp quests, I always need to enter 1 cave for a quest. This cave is small and there are 5 rune spawn spots in it. Now with the change, not all of them are red anymore sadly. But I still receive a Kuta from time to time and others caves are also good and usually, players don't go there anymore.

    I do not play every day, so I level pretty slow.

    Is there any area of the map, where kutas can be found more often then in other areas?

    I play for AD and am still not done with the main quest (doint other things now).

    PVP caves, you mean like skyshard caves in Cyro? Or caves for dailies in Cyro? Or both?

    Gold your primary characters and purple for your lesser alts is a good rule of thumb.

    Unfortunately not since it's all RNG on what you get. More often than not it's a TA....
