Elemental Aspects

Rune Mechanics

Obtaining Runes

Elemental aspect runes can be acquired from corresponding mobs - each aspect has its own creature sources. The base drop rate is 10%, and all progression parameters can be modified through configuration files.

Infusion onto Armor

Runes function similarly to enchantments but apply exclusively to armor pieces. To apply a rune, use an anvil by placing the armor item and the desired rune - the process requires 30 experience levels. Infusions are preserved when upgrading armor to netherite and are compatible with modded armor.
