Adding 1 rune to armor gives 6 bonuses
This is because if you haven’t changed your runes on your spvp armor it counts those in as well (and you start with a full set of “superior rune of <your class>”)
This is PURELY a visual bug though the actual effects you get is as if you have that 1 rune you equipped only (or however many runes you equipped) on your pve armor
Thanks for letting me know that. I had no idea as I’ve yet to touch the PVP side of the game.
