Carve Rune

What is Rune Carving?

Rune Carving is a reworked feature on NosVarya that lets you carve your Main Weapon and Armour to further improve their offensive and defensive stats.

Where can I start Rune Carving?

You can carve runes for your equipment at the Martas NPC in Olorun Village.

How does Rune Carving work?

Your Main Weapon and Armour can each receive up to a total of 30 Rune Levels. Runes carved on your Weapon grant Offensive Runes, while runes on your Armour grant Defensive Runes.

Each stage of the carving process behaves differently:

Rune LevelsWhat happens
1 – 5Each level grants you one unique rune skill (5 skills in total).
6 – 25Each successful upgrade adds one step to one of your 5 rune skills.
26You receive 1 random Rune Power (Weapon Rune Power or Armour Rune Power).
27 – 30Each successful upgrade raises the level of that Rune Power by 1, up to +5.

For the full list of stats each rune can grant, see Carve Stat.

How to Carve Runes on your Equipment

Each carving attempt requires materials. The materials needed vary depending on the current Rune Level of the equipment piece.
