Guild Wars 2

I’m fairly new to the game, so I’m sorry if this is well known knowledge. Let’s say I have 6 Major Runes of The Dolyak, which add toughness and vitality. First, if I have all 4 runes on my equipment, does that mean I get 50 toughness and 35 vitality for each of the four pieces of armor? Or will I only get 50 toughness and 35 vitality total? Also, if I have two more Major Runes of The Dolyak on two other pieces of armor, will it just be a waste or will I get the benefit from those as well? I guess I’m just confused on what exactly is added. I get I need multiple runes to activate higher stages, but does it show the total or the amount added to each armor piece?

The bonus from the runes is only applied once, not per-piece.

If you have more than 2 minor runes or more than 4 major runes (of the same type), you get no additional bonus.

Good to know. I’ll change two of those runes to something else. Thanks for getting back to me so soon.
