< Runecrafting

There are many different types of Runes, and each type has multiple tiers.

Runes are applied directly and permanently to weapons and armor. Each type of rune will tell you what items it may be applied to. This is not to be confused with temporary rune effects, such as the Shrouded Rune, which will stack with permanent runes.

Many faction quartermasters will sell runes for one type of weapon or armor which will require a certain Notoriety with that faction to purchase. For a listing of these, see Armor Runes.

The tiers of craftable runes are Dim, Glowing, Bright, Luminous, Radiant, Brilliant, Blazing, and Incandescent. Every tier does not have every type of Rune.
