Acquiring Materials

Runes are made with rift materials.

Northlands PVP Zone

Rift materials can only be acquired in the PVP zone in the center 1024×1024 of the Northlands map. When you kill a creature in the PVP zone there is a 3% chance that a rift node will appear upon the creature's death, with an equal chance for it to be a wood, crystal or stone node. For multiple attackers, the 3% chance gets rolled for each player participating in combat.

Rift Nodes

When a rift node appears, you must use the appropriate tool and action to harvest rift materials from the node.

Rift node	Tool Used	Action	Action Skill
Wood Node aka “plant”	Hatchet	Cut Down	Woodcutting
Crystal Node aka “crystal”	Pickaxe	Prospect	Prospecting
Stone Node aka “stone”	Pickaxe	Mine	Stonecutting

Crafting Runes

Which Material?

Note the deity, rift material, and lump needed per the tables above.

Most tools that have metal heads but wooden handles are considered to be metal.
Most wooden tools that do not have metal in their construction are considered to be wood.
Most vehicles are made of wood.

Skill Required?

The skill needed to make a rune is based on the rift material used.

Rift Material	Item Type	Skill Used In Creation
Rift Wood	Wood	Fine Carpentry
Rift Crystal	Metal	Jewelry Smithing
Rift Stone	Stone, Pottery, Cloth, Leather	Stonecutting

Crafting

Have the following items in inventory, based on the rune you want to create per the tables above.

Rift material
Lump

It may be necessary to combine rift material into a larger stack. Be mindful of the quality of the rift materials you are combining as the result is an average of quality of all items being combined.

Use rift material and lump in the crafting window (B), or activate one item and right click the other to Create a rune. Select the correct deity.

Upon successful creation of a rune, 0.2kg rift material is used, and one lump. If you fail it consumes 0.01kg.

Attaching Runes

Attach chance depends on your Soul Depth skill and the quality of the rune.
You need manage permission on a vehicle to be able to attach a rune. Players on a settlement must have improve/repair and pickup permissions.

To attach a rune, double click it in inventory to activate it, then right click the item you want to attach it to. Note the Attach menu option which gives you the percent chance of attaching the rune. If it is low, you may want to ask a skilled player to attach the rune for you.

Removing Runes

The Dispel spell can remove a rune, but the item must not be bound (Mythmoor-specific).

Notes

Runes cannot be attached to unfinished items. They can only be attached to completed items.
You can only attach one rune at a time to an item.
If you attach a rune to an item with an existing rune the old rune is replaced with the new one (upon success).
If a color rune is replaced with anything other than a color rune, the existing color rune values remain while the new rune is also applied. A color rune replaces the old color rune's settings.
Glow effect runes cannot be attached to items that can be lit.
Volume runes increase the volume of a container, to hold larger items.
Runes can be attached to weapon heads and spear heads. The rune will stay upon completion of the item.
Scavenger refers to runes that can only be acquired from Archaeology using the Restoration skill.
Age runes only work on Aged (12 months) or older creatures. Creature age is reduced by a percentage of the current age. Pregnant creatures cannot have their age reduced.
Skill level bonus reduces the distance of the skill's value from 100 by the specified percentage, but only for the purpose of random skill checks, increasing the higher quality ore mined on average, but not the maximum quality.
