I think he main reason you don't hear much about Desert Tombs is it is still semi-decent because of the base strength of the entire Nation (C'tis).

With the new change of having fire instead of nature for the Desert Tombs Sauromancers who knows. I personally like Nature quite a bit for them, but this way they are assured to be able to cast Banefire (which is nice but high on the research chain). Though you still do have Shamans.
Yeah, I think DT could have nicer magical versatility now. Doesn't it also give them Skeleton Archers, and with the right booster items, King of Banefires? And they still have Shaman for vinemen summoning.

Plus they have a use for their fire gem income, which is always nice. And fire magic always goes well with a heat scale (sauromancers have decent PREC too). A sauromancer with his random in astral or blood can lead a shaman communion too.
