Rune Management Guide

This guide is intended to be used to more easily manage your rune inventory.

Ideal Rune and Stat Combos

Each rune set and it’s ideal stat combinations are below.

  • The more desired sub-stats a rune has, the more usable it will be in general.
  • Runes with more than 2 sub stats or more missing can generally be discarded.
  • Runes with 1 sub stat missing can be used with conversion stones to have all 4 correct sub-stats
  • Runes with all sub stats listed are the best.

    Please note: The combinations below are generalized based on the current meta and monster types. There may be unique monsters or scenerios where these combinations are not used.

Other Rune Disqualfications


The following runes can generally be discarded:

  • all flat stat main stats
  • all res/acc rune 2’s
  • all Atk% energy and guard runes
  • any rune with 2+ flat stat subs (hp/def/atk)
  • most atk% rune 4s that aren’t for weak point attackers
  • You can sort subs using the and function not the or function and search by (Flat HP AND Flat Atk), then (Flat HP AND Flat Def), and last (Flat Atk AND Flat Def) and these 3 searches will find all runes with 2+ flat stat subs and instantly trash them

Wish Settings

Below are wish settings that can be used to organize your runes.

Wish 1 – PvE runes 2/4/6

This is to filter for PvE runes in slot 2/4/6 (Perna, Argen, Kamiya, etc)

Wish 2 – PvE runes 1/3/5

Filters PvE runes in slot 1/3/5

Wish 3 – Knights/Supports

This is for Knights/Supports – you are looking for 5 or 6 rolls of HP% / DEF%

Wish 4 – HP/DEF Scaling

This filters runes for HP/DEF scaling monsters like Light MK, Atomic Samurai, Jager, Ragdoll, etc

Wish 5 – General Purpose

This filter covers general purpose good runes and has a little bit of everything

Wish 6 – Precision Users

This covers precision users like magical archers

Wish 7 – Chickens

This filters out runes for chickens (CD no CR)

Wish 8 – Atk% Only Scale

Filters out runes for bombers and units that scale off just ATK% like trinity

Trash Wish

use for quick scrapping in bulk as im farming

  • first one shows all runes with 2 or more flat stat subs = instant scrap
  • second one shows all runes with 0 flat stats can exclude this list from rune alchemy and then later sort through them

Important Rolling Details

You must roll every single slot 1 rune that has a support rune type (Energy, Guard, Indominatable, Destroy, Despair, Invasive, Foresight, Shield)

  • If the rune has HP% (slot 1 can’t have DEF%) substat, then you try to roll S4 or S5 HP%.
  • If the rune doesn’t have HP% substat, then you try to roll any random substat to S5 and convert it to S5 HP%.

You must roll every single HP% and DEF% slot 2/4/6 that has a support rune type

  • If the rune has HP%/DEF% mainstat and HP%/DEF% substat, then you try to roll S4/S5 HP%/DEF%.
  • If the rune has HP%/DEF% mainstat and does not have HP%/DEF% substat, then you try to roll any random substat to S5 and convert it to S5 HP%/DEF%.

Other Tips

  • to cut down on the amount of rupture you need to farm for skystones you should constanly be running double skystones in your expeditions you can rotate the third slot for whatever you want/need – but always have 2x skystones running
  • Never disassemble mythic runes, always combine.
