cloaks and mantles
EMBLEM

Clasp gives the user +5 MANA
now beg Cizin so he post ident for 25 runes, that he have.
I take it that means runes are implemented as clasps, and use up the clasp slot on an item?
Runes to not replace the clasp position.
An item can have a clasp and a rune.
Splork
obsidian - max_con - high or low
rhodochrosite - max_dex - high or low
blue quartz - max_int - high or low
aquamarine - 5 mana- cloaks and mantles
golden yellow topaz - 1 hand dam - bracers, bracelets, wrist-bands
Anyone can post any other stats, please do. I’m so curious on gems.
With the amount of eq, and sets of eq we would go through in our lives with just one character, seems the poprates on gems seems a bit small. I have a lot of gems, 1 three of a kind, and several pair. Think the poprates on these are a tad too low?

To be quite honest, if each player ends up with 1 rune Ill be happy. This isnt meant for each player to have an entire set of runes.
The forging rate for runes was slow in the beginning, and this was to be expected because it takes time to get a bunch of gems in game. However, the rate has increased dramatically over the last few months and there are probably 15-20 runes in game currently and a ton of gems. Online, there are over 35.
As a player grows, the level of the mobs they kill grow and the chances of popping runes will naturally increase. Keep your heads up and gems will come your way.
These are luxury items, nothing more and nothing less. Players should not expect to pop and forge these at any set rate.

nah, all your runes are belongs to 3-4 players.
seriously tuk, will you just STFU already?
gems are random pops
there’s no way of cycling for them, so what’re u talking about them belonging to just 3-4 players?
you don’t get gems by sponging and botting in groups all day long
Hey Splork,
Show us your mercy and post all rune stats and their wear location please.
We don’t want you to post their names.
Thanks in advance

all runes are belongs to several to top5 players, that lead current xps/eq groups, and they won’t share em until runes stat are published.

+1,
share runes names and stats, so runes will spread around players
put your money where your mouth is tuk
name me one person on the mud i’ve cheated in a deal
if u’re talking about nomic aka dsfren
he paid me for chars on sl3, i gave him passwords which he conveniently forgot, and the mud got wipe
how’s that cheating?
seriously, you’re making yourself out to be a bigger moron on a daily basis with your silly posts about ppl hoarding runes. I guess ppl should just give them to you when they pop gems

stop crying and stfu ;-)
why am i not surprised
classic response from a tool and a buffoon
go ask you gf of tool and buffoon, cretino.
okay.. before i post stats on a rune i created ..i wonder if i should..
i keep hearing the same thing 3-4 top 5 players have them.. well if that is the case .. then how did i come about my rune?
the gems i had where popped by me
traded with others close
bought from others
i personally have seen several players that are 3x40 and lower that have several gems.. nothing to make a set with yet. I have seen gems pop in smallish areas.. sun temples larger mobs, Honor mobs, and in general just random pops. Rather than squabble over who has gems..who’s not posting stats.. why not take the step forward. Accept that gems are a random pop. There are what 65-75 different gems.. that can be made into runes and you expect to find out what all these are within a year of them being put in. If you forge one.. please post its stats..
People may trade away a gem they don’t know what it Does for one they know they can use.
anyway.. Here is the information on the Moss Agate one
Object ‘Moss_Agate rune’, Item type: CLASP
Item is: NOBITS
Weight: 0, Value: 25000gold, Worn in: TAKE
Clasp can only be attached to:

Clasp gives the user +1 CHARISMA
I got lucky and made one a bard could use. Now if anyone has ideas on gauntlets an av bard might want.. give me tell in game.. something i can work for in the future.. until then this will be in my inventory :P
Did you know Moss_Agate was charisma before hand… or do you always have good luck guessing the right number out of 1 to 30ish? :shock:
I had no idea what it was going to turn out to be. Had it been something I couldn’t use.. well guess I’ld be collecting more runes. :P
1 in 30? lol ..there are more than 30 gems out there :)

Apparently the runes listed in help runes are not grouped. A simple analysis of the possibilities versus the stat of those identified shows early signs that they indeed are.
High chance the first 12 listed are stat runes. The four runes in a row starting with “c” are prob “save” ruins. (spells/breath/petri/paral)
“Tourmaline”, “Alexandrite”, “Aquamarine” possibly +5 mv, hp, ma.
Those centered around Golden Yellow Topaz a good chance of being something like Dam Reduct, Undead Control, Sysshock etc.
Fire Opal and Colorless Sapphire appear twice together in the list, possibly showing that they are somehow subjectively related.
They are grouped in help gems oddly… leading me to speculate…
STATS AND MAX_STATS
“Banded Agate”, “Eye Agate”, “Moss Agate”, “Azurite”, “Blue Quartz”, “Hematite”, “Lapus Lazuli”, “Malachite”, “Obsidian”, “Rhodochrosite”, “Tiger Eye”, “Freshwater Pearl”
SAVES AND ????
“Bloodstone”, “Carnelian”, “Chalcedony”, “Chrysoprase”, “Citrine”,
“Light Blue Iolite”, “Jasper”,“Moonstone”, “Peridot”, “Quartz”, “Sadonyx”,
“Rose Quartz”, “Smokey Quartz”, “Rock Crystal Quartz”, “Zircon”, “Orange Zircon”
“Amber”, “Amethyst”, “Chrysoberyl”, “Coral”, “Brilliant Green Garnet”,
“Salmon Pink Garnet”, “Champagne Pearl”, “Pale Golden Pearl”, “Pearl”,
“Silver Pearl”, “Red Spinel”, “Brown Red Spinel”, “Dark Green Spinel”, “Tourmaline”
NEW CLASSO RUNES? HD, DAM REDUCT, UC ??? ETC
“Alexandrite”, “Aquamarine”, “Violet Garnet”, “Silvery Blue Pearl”,
“Deep Blue Spinel”, “Golden Yellow Topaz”
“Emerald”, “White Opal”, “Opal”, “Fire Opal”, “Colorless Sapphire”, “Tomb Jade”, “Water Opal”
“Bright Green Emerald”, “Gray White Diamond”, “Pink Diamond”, “Black Onyx”, “Aventurine”,“Jade”, “Jet”, “Jacinth”, “Sapphire”, “Ruby”, “Star Ruby”, “Blue Star Sapphire”, “Purple Star Sapphire”
It also appears that with the “save” runes identified so far there is a predisposition to make them attach to the same eq slot, so I expect to see some form of “slot” grouping for the ruins in play. This may mean you may have to make some hard choices about what eq to attach a rune to in relation to trying to wear as many max_stats as possible. Wisdom would say to wait before attaching ruins at the moment.
I didn’t even see a gem before I was 3x40, however I have now popped a few myself soloing mobs. I think there pop rate is quite acceptable for there value, and should increase as your char power increases. Gems will come to you through solo, prob more than groups. All in all I think it’s a fantastic edition to the game. The only problems I see coming are related to stats ruins and wear locations, but without the eq list and a heck of a lot more mudding it’s to hard to tell yet. I can’t see myself finding +7 MAX_WIS for my regen mode… unless it’s able to be purchased at avatar. It’s too early to say.
All will be revealed :)
There has been a little discussion about my post over gossip, including some new bizarre and whacky ideas.
Another possibility is that the gems are grouped by there wear location on help gems… which in most cases makes it look like they are grouped by function…
Some believe they are not grouped by anything at all… which is possible I guess, but I personally doubt it at the moment. Programmers are people of order, grouping and logic.
Anyways… I’m going to update this post here with possible effects of all the gems… it would seem there is at least some grouping by wear location and stat… ie, dam runes will be wrists or hands etc.

It cracks me up when people get on here and whine about players having all the eq. It reminds me of socialism. People work hard to get stuff, then others who don’t work so hard complain that it is unfair that the hard workers have everything. Then they try to get the rules changed so that they can benefit just as much as people who work harder than them.
I got an idea.
If you kill stuff as much as you whine, you might load some gems…..
Splork has changed the Chrysoprase rune.. here are the new stats..

You recite an identify scroll which dissolves.
You feel informed:

Item is: NOBITS
Weight: 0, Value: 25000gold, Worn in: TAKE
Clasp can only be attached to:
rings
SHIELD
CRUMBLE-READ

Clasp is non-removable once attached.
Clasp gives the user -2 SAVING_SPELL
Also, Splork says this increases your spell damage by making it harder for mobs to save AND it lowers damage against you by making it easier to save against spells.
Juggleblood has confirmed this.
Whoohoo.. everybody start trying to pop Chrysoprases!!
Ok after finally getting enuf Blue Quartz gems, this is what i got…..

With runes like these maybe my prayer for a +5 to fishing rune is not completely unfounded. :twisted: But such an awesome item would prob have to be 8x40~9x40. Can’t have them having too much fish early on in the game.
Object ‘Obsidian rune’, Item type: RUNE
Item is: NOBITS
Weight: 0, Value: 25000gold, Worn in: TAKE

UNDER-2x40
Rune gives the user +1 MAX_CON
I think the UNDER-2x40 is being addressed somewhere.
I noticed too that Jezer was’nt too far off in his earlier post
regarding Gem groups.
Stab
Newsflash.
Splork tells you ’ the identify on runes is incorrect, i ll fix it when i get a chance. The runes really arent under 2x40.
Stab.
Ok.

Jacinth. Stay away everyone, it’s probably save vs. petrification!

Yin and Yang - maybe so but the one after that will be PermaLite
