The five rune kinds
The official rune list is split into five tabs: Rare Yellow, Yellow, Blue, Red and Ideal Runes. Every rune goes from +1 to +9. Most effects grow in small steps, and many make a bigger jump at +8 or +9, so the last levels matter most. For what runes are and how to get them, see Runes.
Rare Blue Runes: one skill per class
Each Rare Blue Rune gives a rune skill made for a single class.
| Class | Rune skill | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Trojan | Blood Tide (passive) | Steals max HP from targets you hit; enough stolen HP raises your max HP for a while and refills HP and XP |
| Warrior | Retaliation (passive) | Higher counterattack chance and a higher damage cap for it |
| Archer | Star Raid (passive) | Scatter Fire or Blistering Wave may set off Kinetic Spark, which hits several targets |
| Fire Taoist | Rise of Taoism (active) | Fire Creator state: more HP and magic damage, and immunity to Immortal Force |
| Water Taoist | Space Leap (active) | Opens a magic portal that teleports all your teammates to you |
| Ninja | Duel (active) | Chains a target for up to 20 s; when the chain breaks it clears their XP, stops Stamina recovery and lowers healing |
| Monk | Fury Strike (active) | Iron Guard state: more HP and weapon attack; normal attacks only, no jumping or skills |
| Pirate | Neptune's Curse (passive) | After death: immune to all damage, Eagle Eye cooldown removed, and hits can drop targets to 1 HP |
| Dragon Warrior | Shadow Fist (passive) | When normal attacks trigger Dragon Punch, a fan-shaped shockwave may hit behind the last target |
| Windwalker | Double Thunder (Chaser, passive) / Crack Star (Stomper, active) | Thundercloud spawns a second, smaller cloud nearby / stars pull in nearby enemies, then deal area damage |
