Runes are a type of battle skill. In battle, the two rune slots are placed on the right side of the hotkey bar and are assigned the hotkeys "Z" and "X".

Each class has access to 8 runes. The following six Runes are available for all classes: Brutality, Blood, Heal, Chaos, Amnesia, Rage and Mire Rune. Each class has access to two class specific runes: As of Patch 8.3, all runes can be used by all classes.
Knight: Purge, PurificationMage: Purge, GuardianArcher: Guardian, Purification
Runestones[]
Learning and upgrading Runes is done by using Runestones. There are two types of Runestones, type specific (such as Brutality, Blood, Heal etc.) and generic. Type specific Runestones are needed to gain access to a rune for the first time.
- Chaos, Amnesia and Rage Runestones can be acquired via buying Ancient Rune Pack at the Mystery Shop and during Rune Exchange special event. They can also be found in Dimensional Merchants in Dimension War.
- Purge, Purification and Guardian Runestones can be aquired via buying Holy Rune Pack from Mystery Shop. This pack appears in 3 versions, one for each class: Holy Rune Pack (Knight) gives Purge or Purification rune, Holy Rune Pack (Archer) gives Guardian or Purification rune and Holy Rune Pack (Mage) gives Guardian or Purge rune.
- Brutality, Healing and Blood Runestones can be acquired at random in Victory Chests from Tank Trials
Runestones are also needed to upgrade Runes. They give 50 Exp each and can be earned from Tank Trials reward, Jewel Hunt, League Shop and Glory Shop, also they are rarely found in chests from Tower of Kings, from Marriage Chests and in Dimensional War rewards.
Another way to upgrade Runes is to use old Runes!
- Level 1 old Rune = 1 exp
- Level 2 old Rune = 2 exp
- Level 3 old Rune = 3 exp
- Level 4 old Rune = 4 exp
- Level 5 old Rune = 5 exp
Rune level[]
A rune's cooldown depend on its rune level. The number of uses per fight also depends on rune level but is different for each type of rune.
Note: When you have different runes and at different levels including runes, the difference between the cooling times of both runes will be reflected in lower level rune.
