So, Rune of Power should be renamed to Rune of PITA. However, there is a simple answer to making it way worth taking.
Rune of Power should empower ANY mage that stands inside the radius, and multiple instances of Rune of Power should stack, so if two mages cast RoP and they overlap, if you stand within both at the same time, you get increased effects. There can be diminished returns for this, of course, but there should ALWAYS be a net gain for multiple Rune of Power.
I know, I know, this sounds fantastic right? Sure. It would be perfect for a Tank and Spank fight where there’s not a lot of movement. Maxing out DPS by overlapping RoP would make like great! But what about high movement fights? Well, strategically placing RoP around the battlefield by all the mages in the raid would allow movement without losing the benefit of RoP.
Strategy, a great buff, coolness all rolled into one? I’ll take two, please!
so, you want to make a mandatory talent… even more mandatory.
No. Remove it or nerf it to the ground.

Simple fix, make it so you can recast it on a different spot when you move.
Fantastic how you were able to engineer an absolute nightmare of an ability that’d be a massive problem in all forms of content. Was this the Christmas wish of a dyslexic kid that sent their letter to Satan instead of Santa?

Even more simple fix. Make rune of power a self buff. The rune of power should be a cool glow from your character. Increase the CD of rune of power to 3 minutes. IF should get a slight buff. Now you choose passive damage that is better for long fights or ROP for a huge burst during short fights. RETUNE base class damage around these changes so they compete in all 3 specs regardless of choice.
why would anyone pick two mages. Even arcane is average spec that is picked mostly for 5% int buff
A simple improvement:
Remove it from the game
Fire the ( Insert Word ) that designed it.
Fire the (Insert Word ) that approved it.

Or they should just get rid of it entirely because we need less CD multipliers in the game so we don’t have abilities hitting like spaghetti noodles 90% of the time just to have 10% of the time where you can one shot people because of multipliers.
