Q:

For example, from the description from Runes, “THis happens when hit”. Does this mean when I take damage, or when I’m hitting them? I just want to make sure.

“You are not welc x5 here, go back to your party”

i assume it means When (being) Hit, cuz if its u make a hit towards others, it would be worded as When You Attack.

check out other runes, like this one http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Rune_of_the_Pack

It means when you take damage, because when you block it doesn’t seem to proc any effect…

Also, for Rune of the Pack, “when you attack” means “when you get hit and rarely, when you attack”.

I think it’s best if you do a on-case study for better clarification (Heart of the Mists has all Runes and enemies/dummies for you to test).
