In players can upgrade their weapons and equipment by crafting Runes at a Rune Forge. Runes allow players to upgrade gear with powerful passive effects, increasing the effectiveness and efficiency of tools, durability, weapon damage, and more. Crafting Runes in isn't cheap, but it's still surprisingly accessible and highly recommended for skilled builders and intrepid explorers alike.
To start crafting Runes, players should start off by building and placing a Rune Forge by finding some Knotroot and Glass. Knotroot can be harvested inside caves, while Glass is made by processing two Sand and one Brightcore in a Metal Smelter. 20 Knotroot and six pieces of Glass are required to build a Rune Forge. Once it's been built and placed, players can learn the ins and outs of runecrafting.

Adding and re-rolling for Runes costs Essence, which is a resource that can be obtained from many sources, including destroying structures, chopping trees, and defeating enemies. Here's how much each Rune costs to add:
As such, players should carefully consider their choices before adding a Rune. Apart from the Essence cost, Runes also cannot be removed once added. It's worth noting that the best Runes won't be found in the random Rune rotation straight away;instead, this requires finding additional Rune Recipes.
To find new and better Runes, players need to travel to the new Lost Isles region by using a Battle Bus Fast Travel Station. The Lost Isles are instantly accessible from any Battle Bus Fast Travel Station.
To find new recipes for Runes, search the chests that randomly appear on Floating Islands: some will drop Klombo Rune Tomes (named after the adorable and goofy-looking dinosaur Klombo). Reading a
