FAQ
Weapon runes vs armor runes?
Weapon runes socket on weapons and usually boost combat stats. Armor runes socket on armor for defense or utility. Filter this page by Weapon or Armor to browse each set.
Where do runes drop?
Each card lists drop sources under Drops from. Farm those enemies or activities; rare runes can take many clears.
Do runes work on pickaxes?
Pickaxes have their own rune slots for mining bonuses. Combat weapon/armor runes on this page are separate from pickaxe mining runes.
Should I socket luck runes for mining?
Yes when you are farming rare ores. Pair luck-focused mining runes with the ore chance calculator to see how luck stacks change rock odds.
