Crafting

Rune Crafting

Forge magical runes and enhance your gear with AOS properties — at your own risk.

Rune Crafting is a custom system based on the Inscription skill. You craft runes and then apply them to weapons and armor to add magic properties — from lower mana cost, through resists and stats, to powerful slayers. It is a path for the patient and brave: results can be random, and the stakes are high.

How it works

  • Requirements: the Inscription skill and Magery 114+. You need a Rune Chisel tool.
  • Materials: a Rough Stone and reagents specific to each rune (e.g. Garlic, Bloodmoss, Daemon Blood, Nightshade).
  • Applying: double-click the rune (Inscription 70+), target an item. Success adds a random +1 to +8 to the property.
  • Risk: ~20% chance the item is destroyed when applying. Enhance wisely!
  • Buying: tools and materials are available from the Rune Crafter NPC (Rune Chisel, Rough Stone).
