Enchant Items
Enchanting an item is done via an item called a Runestone. Runestones are obtained as loot, as rewards for zone events and purchased from the Astral Diamond merchants.
Runestones can be placed into slots on equipment and grant new stats depending on the rank of the Runestone. Runestones can be from rank 1 to 7.
There are three types of enchantments - Offensive, Defensive and Utility (determined by the item being enchanted) - and two different types of Runestone - runestones for players, and runestones for Companions.
It should be mentioned that Runestones stored in the bank can still be added to items, even though they are not in your inventory - however, they cannot be fused from the bank.
Unbind Runestones
Unbinding a runestone returns the runestone to you. Unbinding a Runestone costs Astral Diamonds, and the cost varies.
Runestone Fusion
To fuse runestones into a higher Rank runestone of the same type you need to have 4 runestones of the same Rank and type. You right click on the Runestone stack and click "Fuse into greater...".
There is a chance of failure when fusing depending on Rank of the runestones. On a fuse failure you will lose one Runestone, not all four. See Wards for protection of Runestones.
| Runestone Rank | Fuse Failure % chance |
|---|---|
| 2 | 95 |
| 3 | 90 |
| 4 | ? |
| 5 | ? |
| 6 | ? |
| 7 | ? |
Wards
Wards are used to guarantee fusion success, or to keep you from losing a rune or sigil if you fail the fusion process. They are purchased in the Zen Market
