Description

Runes are items that can be used to give other items a bonus, or used one time to activate their effect.

There are 65 different rune effects in Wurm, using combinations of 13 different metals and 5 possible gods available.

Creation

Stone Rune of Vynora, Brass

Runes are crafted by using different materials found at rifts (rift crystal, rift stone shard, and rift wood) combined with a lump of metal. The different combinations will create different rune types, each type giving a different effect.

When crafting a rift resource with a lump of metal, you are given the option of 5 different rune types:

Crystal runes use jewelry smithing to create. Stone runes use stonecutting, and wood runes use fine carpentry.

Each god and metal combination creates a rune of a different effect; that is, a brass rune of Libila will not have the same effect as a brass rune of Magranon. Some may be similar in effect, with different strengths. Any player of any religion can make any rune of any god-type. However, creating runes of one's own corresponding god-type gives a bonus and is easier at creation. Jackal runes are, therefore, the most difficult to work with all the way around.

Effects

The combination of metal type and god type will determine the effect of a rune.

The rift resource used will determine what the rune can be attached to or used on.

  • Rift wood runes - can be used on wooden items, and use fine carpentry skill to create.
  • Rift crystal runes - can be used on metal items, and use jewelry smithing skill to create.
  • Rift stone runes - can be used on stone, pottery, cloth and leather items, and use stonecutting skill to create.

  • * Reduces age by a percentage of the current age. Creatures cannot be pregnant when the rune is used. The minimum age this can be used on is Aged (12 months)
  • ** Runes of The Scavenger can be found on items recovered through Restoration, and cannot be created or attached to existing items.
  • *** "Skill level bonus" reduces the distance of the skill's value from 100 by the percentage given, but only for the purpose of random skill checks. For example, a pickaxe with this rune would harvest slightly higher quality ore on average, but will not increase the maximum quality possible.

Attaching

  • Application of runes can usually be done by the owner. For vehicles, manage permission is required.
  • Chance to successfully attach a rune depends on Soul Depth and the Quality of the rune.
  • On-deed, the player doing the attaching must have improve/repair and pickup permissions.
  • Can only attach them to completed items.
  • Only one rune can be attached to an item.
    • Attaching a new rune will replace the previous rune.
    • If replacing the color change rune (Adamantine, Jackal), the color will remain on the item.

Additional Notes

  • Creation success will consume 0.2kg of the material, failure consumes 0.01kg.
  • Runes decay dramatically fast outside of inventory.
  • Runes are removed by a priest's dispel casting.
    • Runes can also be replaced by attaching a new rune.
  • Runes with the Glow effect cannot be applied to items that can be lit, such as forges or smelters.
  • Runes that increase volume will allow the affected container to hold more of items that already fit.
  • Runes that increase size will allow the affected container to hold bigger items.
  • Any runes on weapon heads or spear heads will transfer over to the completed item when combined.
