Guild Wars 2

Hi all!

I was just buying some Superior Runes of the trading post to finish my build, and i began wondering how the runes work. I mean if, for example, the Superior Rune of Fighter says:
(1): +25 Power
(2): +15 Toughness
(3): +50 Power
(4): +35 Toughness
(5): +90 Power
Will it give 90 Power and 35 Toughness or are they added up, so it becomes 165 Power and 50 Toughness?

Thank you in advance

it adds up for each additional rune you have equiped in the set

so for all 5 you’d get 165 power and 50 toughness

^ as he said rune bonuses = a “set bonus” think WoW tier sets as a easy/quick example.

precisely there set bonuses but flexible ones not attached to any specific gear so you can have armour you like the looks of, with the stats you want on with the set bonuses you want.

So true also take into account there are usually two sets of runes that give the same “set bonuses” if you want to try and stack a specific thing as much as you can. Also take into account is only counts for your 6/6 main armor your water breather does not count per say though you can set x rune in to work with your remaining set to maintain w/e bonus. This is because it will and use w/e is in your water breather vs your helm when you are in the water.
