After some debate and some reading, it seems the new Dread Guard relics are BiS for PvE, instead of the War Hero relics.

For the specifics, you can check out this thread. The jist of it is that if you are a DPS, you want to get the Dread Guard Boundless Ages on use relic and the Dread Guard Relic of Elemental Transcendence (especially for a DoT build). If you are a Commando with Armor Penetration, then you can use the Kinetic proc relic.

There's also discussion for BiS for healers and tanks as well. These relics cost 300 daily comms each.

My log with the new relics: http://swtor.askmrrobot.com/combatlog/63239259-91db-4e52-9c56-884a9c0411db/overview#d=0,f=1,t=1,b=1

Some interesting math for the Elemental:

Over a 5 minute fight (310 secs), the proc went off 52 times. That comes out to every 6 seconds. I did 15605 damage from the proc alone, which means each hit was for 300 dmg. It made up 2.7% of my overall damage. I can't say how much I lost from the static power, but 2.7% seems like a pretty decent bump.
