Nice thread...good work...but if you ask me it all comes down to a shot in the dark....i have been making weapons and armor with runics since they began..with luck without luck, with armslore without armslore, with ancient hammers and without...all comes down to pure dumb happenstance...sometimes even a blind squirrel finds a nut... if chance is on your side you'll get something good if not you get to smelt a bunch of crap...at least until you get up to agapite runics..then you have a much better chance at getting good stuff..and as for the tailoring runics...almost gauranteed to get something good off a barbed kit...spined and horned...just another crap shoot
