Runic Rifles were invented and created by Jardin Callowel, a lead scientist in runic technologies and rune stone applications. The basics of a runic rifle is pretty simple. It makes use of both crystal and rune stones to allow the user to channel magical energy through it which is then expelled through the other end as a powerful beam of pure destructive magic, always in the color of the element of its wielder, and always bearing the elemental properties of said element. The beam is akin to a short lazer blast, roughly a a foot long yet bearing a 4 inch diameter. The benefit of the runic rifle is that it doesn't require ammo and has longer range potential. The downside is the cost, they deplete rune stones and must be replaced, with the purity level of the rune stone determining the strength potential of the blast. They also drain from the user Soul.

Due to using a rune stone as part of the weapon, runic rifles do not come with a slot for rune stone attachment for learning and applying weapon effects. You can however purchase a modification to allow for this.

Rune Stone Purity Levels

The purity of the rune stone determines the power of the blast, not the spell that is in it. Therefore it is very possible to get the most pure rune stone available with just a basic spell in it, and get a good blast from the runic rifle.

  • Level 1 Purity - Black Rune stone: Increase attack value by up to 25% (x 1.25)
  • Level 2 Purity - Gray Rune Stone: Increase attack value by up to 50% (x 1.5)
  • Level 3 Purity - Silver Rune Stone: Increase attack value by up to 75% (x 1.75)
  • Level 4 Purity - Teal Rune Stone: Increase attack value by up to 100% (x 2)
  • Level 5 Purity - White Rune Stone: Increase attack value by up to 125% (x 2.25)
  • Level 6 Purity - Clear Rune Stone: Increase attack value by up to 150% (x 2.5)

This is actually a runic rifle designed to look like a staff. It is more popular among those who want the power of a runic rifle but don't want to advertise that they are carrying one around. Given its more slender shape, it isn't as powerful as traditional runic rifles, however it has the unique advantage of being able to be used like a wizard staff.

Staff Special Effects:

  • apply double the elemental effects against the element you are strong against when casting magic
  • decrease spell casting speed by 1
