Rune rules

Unlocking

Runes open after the level 50 quest "The Lore of The Runes". You get a small batch at season start; every 5 Season Levels unlock 6 more, up to 60 at Season Level 50. View yours in the Seasonal Runes tab on the Season page (default key F5).

The budget

Each rune costs 1 to 3 Rune Power. One equipment piece (helm, armour, bracers, boots or your weapon) holds at most 5 Rune Power and at most 3 runes, all different. The same rune can sit on several pieces at once where it applies.

Seasonal reset

Runes reset every season and are replaced with a new set that may have different names and effects. Level the new season to unlock them again.
