Runes
Runes add a temporary EXP boost and a special combat effect while preventing hunting-field curses from building up.
Activation
Press Space near a rune, then enter the displayed arrow sequence within 10 seconds. A successful activation grants +100% EXP for 180 seconds and the rune's additional effect.
Rules to remember
- Rune use has a 15-minute cooldown and benefits only the activating character.
- A character at least 10 levels below the field's monsters cannot activate its rune.
- Unused runes eventually reduce field EXP and item/NESO drops through a four-stage curse; activating the rune removes it.
- Leaving the field removes special rune effects except Liberated Rune Power.
Different rune effects
Effects include movement boosts, recovery, lightning attacks, reduced skill cooldowns and summoned Elite Monsters. The buff tooltip shows the current effect; only some special effects can be removed with a right-click.
