Signal Runes (Lifeskill)
The art of inscribing signal data into crystallized combat runes.
Table of Contents (3)
Overview
Signal Runes is a lifeskill focused on converting raw signal data into combat-ready runes at wilderness altars. It follows the same tier progression as other gathering skills — higher-tier inscriptions require higher skill levels.
How to Train
Find a Signal Altar in any wilderness zone and begin inscribing. Each successful inscription grants experience. Higher-tier inscriptions give more experience but require more skill. The success rate improves as you level up.
Yield Scaling
Each inscription converts one signal data into several runes. As your level exceeds the requirement for a tier, you produce more runes per inscription — rewarding dedicated training.
