Starter Guide

Welcome to Runesaga and its official Starter guide.

The Starter guide is intended to help new players begin their journey with ease. This guide covers a wide range of topics including; Skills, money making, and some early-game content in Runesaga.

Logging in

Upon login you will be faced with an interface to choose your characters appearance.

Your appearance can be changed later in game by the make-over mage if you wish to do so.

Once you have finished your characters appearance you can click confirm to lock it in.

Choosing your mode.

Runesaga has a selection of games modes from from normal to challenge mode ironman.

Upon choosing your desired mode you can not swap from normal mode to challenge mode so make sure to choose wisely, although ironmen can convert in to normal mode but cannot convert back to ironman once this has been completed.

Normal mode:

Normal mode and normal ironman mode includes 250x experience rate for combat and 50x experience rate for skilling.

This is the fastest experience mode on Runesaga however you do miss out on the 5% Crit and 5% Luck chance.

Challenge mode:

Challenge mode and challenge ironman mode includes 30x experience rate for combat, 20x experience rate for skilling with an addition of +5% Crit Chance and +5% Luck chance.

Limiting yourself to lower experience rates greatly benefits you with a reward of Crit and Luck chance for your extra efforts.

After deciding which route you would like to take press confirm and your character will begin to walk towards the Runesaga Guide.

Crit chance: a percentage chance to double your damage for the next hit when critically hitting your enemy the hit splat will appear gold you can double you maximum hit with this there is plenty of ways to increase your Crit chance with items such as the Ring of wealth, Ring of wealth (i), Ring of precision, Max cape, Completionist cape, 5% Crit Boost Card, 8% Crit Boost Card and rings from the events

Luck chance: a percentage chance to roll a second drop on the drop table of the NPC you are killing (this does not mean your item will be doubled) there is plenty of ways to increase your Luck chance with items such as Ring of wealth, Ring of wealth (i), Ring of greed, Max cape, Completionist cape, 5% Luck Boost Card, 8% Luck Boost Card and rings from events.
