I went ahead and bought four Rune of Strength at one point. However, for the life of me I can’t figure out how to slot all four at once.

  1. If I drag a stack of four to my weapon, nothing happens.
  2. If I double-click the stack and then click my weapon, only one Rune gets applied.
  3. If I then double-click the stack again and then click my weapon, the one Rune already there gets replaced by the new single Rune.

What am I doing wrong? As an Ele, I likes me my +Might and Might Duration

AFAK runes can only be applied to armor pieces.

I’ve just made a topic about runes, maybe it will help you.

AFKAIK, you can’t slot more than one rune at a time. If you want to have more than one bonus stat, you need to buy runes with multiple bonuses.

If the rune has a “0/4” indicator, it doesn’t mean that you can apply up to 4 runes to a single item, it means that you need to have 4 runes applied to 4 pieces of gear in order to get all the bonuses.

I assume that since you bought 4 runes, they are Major, and you bought them to get all 4 bonuses. You are probably mistaken when saying you put one on a weapon. Runes can only be applied to armor. You cannot place more than one rune on a single piece of armor. In order to get all 4 bonuses from 4 Major identical runes you need to place the 4 runes on 4 different pieces of your armor. And you start by double clicking the stack of runes and place the rune you picked up on the piece of armor you want it to be on.

Ah, this all makes sense. I’m sure I messed it up and that I meant armor not weapons, thanks! And the note about having those runes on four different items to get the 4/4 bonus is I think the piece I was missing the most.

Thanks!

Lololol.

1. Each item can only hold 1 upgrade.
2. Numbers like 0/4 mean if four different items have that same upgrade then you unlock all 4 bonuses listed on the upgrade (the best ones have 6 bonuses so you need 6 of the upgrade each on different items).
