Guild Wars 2

Do rune bonuses stack? What I mean is if I have 5 weapons with Superior Rune of the Krait, the first bonus stat is +28 condition damage; if I have 5 of them, would that end up being a 140 condition damage bonus (plus the other stats) or is it just +28 overall?

Another thing is if I equip a bunch of different runes with similar bonus stats for the first line, do they count as 1 only or do they stack? For example, rune of the undead, krait, and nightmare.

Thanks =)

Yes. If you use 6 superior runes of the Ranger for example, you get all 6 bonuses listed. If you use three, you only get the first three, ect.

Each tier only applies once, if you have 6 runes you’ll only get each of the listed bonuses once, not 6 of the first 3 of the 2nd etc.

But if I have a different rune with the same first bonus..for example Rune of the Krait and Rune of Nightmare, the first bonus apply separately even if they’re both +28 condition damage?

To answer the second part of your question: yes, if you use three different sets with the same bonus (15% bonus to bleed duration, for instance) they are cumulative (e.g., 45%).
