Runesmithing
Runesmithing in Beyond Ragnarok is the act of fusing naturally occurring crystal, and magical ‘Shards’ together, in order to make a Rune that holds magical power. This can be done with Quartz, Hematite and Obsidian.
| Rune | Crystal Requirement | Shard Requirement |
|---|---|---|
| Quartz | 1 x Quartz Crystal unit | 3 x Shards |
| Hematite | 1 x Hematite Crystal unit | 6 x Shards |
| Obsidian | 1 x Obsidian Crystal unit | 9 x Shards |
Runes do not expire, until they are cracked.
There are three levels of runesmithing ability, one for each level of crystal.
The details below will give you an overview of each level, and a link to the additional skills runesmiths can choose, which enhance their skill in this field.
Below these links is a short write up of how this skill works in the game, plus an example of an item and the laminated card you recieve when you make an item.
