WildStar Runecrafting Guide

Runecrafting in WildStar is the only way to customize your gear, attribute-wise. Almost every piece of gear has rune slots where you can put runes, and each rune gives a certain amount of one attribute – primary or secondary and some even grant powerful bonuses. You probably completed level 15 quest for runecrafting after you had visited your capital city for the first time, but honestly, that quest doesn’t explain the rune system completely. So let’s go over it one more time.

Engraving Station


Runecrafting_Screen
Everyone gets it at level 15, and there is nothing to level up, nothing to discover, no skill tree, talents, schematics… Pretty simple, craft and put runes in corresponding gear slots – fire runes into fire sockets, air runes into air sockets, etc. You do that at the engraving station in Illium/Thayd. Interacting with the station opens a screen with two tabs: Create Runes and Equip Runes.

 

Create Runes

There are 7 elements on the left side of the screen – Air, Earth, Fire, Fusion, Life, Logic and Water. Each element has six sub-groups:

  • Attributes – attributes only;
  • Class Rune Sets – attributes and class specific set bonuses;
  • Elder Rune Sets – attributes and role oriented set bonuses;
  • General Rune Sets – like Elder Sets but less rewarding and requires cheaper/more common materials to craft;
  • PvP Attributes – PvP offense or PvP defense attributes only;
  • PvP Rune Sets – attributes and set bonuses useful in PvP.

Create_Runes_TabSelect one element, its sub-group and a rune to craft it. Material requirements are displayed at the bottom of the crafting screen. You can’t see how many attribute points each rune gives (more about this later). Materials required for crafting are Elemental Signs and Fragments. They are world and dungeon drops, but you can also obtain them by salvaging gear, their tiers are connected with zone level. You can check them in your crafting bag (click on the hammer icon in the lower left corner of your inventory to open it).

The highest tier sign – Eldan Sign, is needed to craft Class, Elder and PvP set runes. It drops in veteran instances and raids. It’s important to notice that every attribute or set rune isn’t available to craft under each element; for example, Esper’s Concentrated Blades set runes are crafted only as Air, Fire and Life runes. In order to receive rune set bonuses, you have to equip enough runes for that set; required number is displayed in brackets for every set.

Equip Runes


Runes_and_Slots
Every rune slot in an item is aligned to one of the Elements mentioned before, but there is one “unaligned” slot – Omni. You can put any rune in this slot, regardless of its element, and it makes it the most desirable slot to get. Equip Runes tab lists every piece of gear you have equipped or in your bags and their rune slots. You can see which element each slot belongs to, number of slots per one piece of gear and locked slots.

You have to pay in gold to unlock each slot; price goes up with gear level. You have to equip runes in previous slots before you put them in any subsequent slot. To equip runes, drag over a rune from your inventory on a slot, or click on the slot and select the rune from a list. A small window pops-up where you can see amount of attributes that rune gives, and you have to confirm equipping the rune. It’s important to know that the same rune doesn’t give the same amount of attributes to every item. Chests and legs get the most, while every other piece gets less. It also depends on the item level – the higher it is, the more you get. Also, any subsequent rune slot past the first one gives less and less. For instance, the second one gives only 78% of the possible full gain, and the second one will give you nothing if it’s the same rune as the previous one (same alignment and attribute). It’s fine if they have same attributes but are aligned differently. To remove equipped runes, you just have to click on them and pay some gold.

Example of creating and equipping a rune


You have one pretty level 22 chest with Fire and Earth rune slots. The Earth slot is locked and you have to pay to unlock it. You also have level 22 legs with dual Fire runes, the second Fire also locked. You have enough materials and you want to put Moxie attribute runes, but they’re available only as Fire, Air, Fusion and Logic. So, something else has to be put in the Earth Slot in the chest piece, like the Grit rune. Click on the Equip Rune tab, find the chest, click on the arrow and select Rune of Moxie (red). It gives 5 Moxie. Click on the locked Earth slot, pay ~1g and equip the Grit rune. But, it will give you 4 Grit instead of 5, since it’s the second rune slot. Now for the legs, you put the fire rune of Moxie in the first slot, unlock the second slot, put another fire rune of Moxie and pop-up window tells you that you will get nothing, because it’s the same rune as the previous one, so you pick another fire rune from the list and equip it.

Planning your runes


First, don’t waste your time, gold and materials until you hit level 50. Until then you change your gear like socks. Check all rune sets and pick the one you like. Check in what elements they are available, and bear in mind that chest and legs get the highest amount of attributes. Decide what attributes you want for the first slot, what for the second and so on. Randomness in gear, combined with the fact that some runes are only available as certain elements, makes it very hard to make the perfect setup. Every item drop has many versions of itself, with more or less rune slots and different elemental alignments. It means that, even you got the item you wanted, you will continue farming the same item if the rune slot layout is not to your liking.

    Great guide, thank you!

    Perhaps consider moving this to the first paragraph: “First, don’t waste your time, gold and materials until you hit level 50. Until then you change your gear like socks.”
