Sands of Aura features a number of options to augment your character and enable you to role-play to your play-style and combat preferences, and Armor Runes are another example of how this is achieved in-game. They are, as the name suggests, slotted into your armor to give that equipment, and your character overall, specific augments that will help you defeat the scourge in Talamhel.
Today, we’re going to have a quick look over the Armor Runes and what augments they will provide, where they can be slotted, and their various levels of empowerment. Yep, you read that correctly. Not all Armor Runes are created equal. You will find varying power levels of each rune as you quest through Sands of Aura, so it’s key to know which rune is the most potent choice for you and your specific play-style.
There are currently, as of patch 0.01.06, seven different armor runes. Five of these runes come in only two different power levels, but two of these have a third level of power that can drop! The runes are differentiated by tiers of:
Tier One – All Seven Runes
Tier Four – All Seven Runes
Tier Eight – Two Runes!
1 – Armour: Increases Armour by
Tier One – 2.3%
Tier Four – 4.6%
2 – Armour Penetration: Increases Armour Penetration by
Tier One – 0.6%
Tier Four – 1.2%
3 – Critical: Increases Critical damage by
Tier One – 4.5%
Tier Four – 9.5%
4 – Special Attack: Increases Special Attack damage by
Tier One – 4.5%
Tier Four – 9.5%
5 – Spellblade: Increases Spellblade damage by
Tier One – 4.5%

6 – Haste: Increases Haste by
