There are two Runic spells for each class.

Runic 1

The first Runic spell requires you to have the highest ranked badge for your chosen Main Quest faction, for Council of Innovation that is the Council Researcher's Badge, for Silver Crown it is the Silver Crown Trader's Pips and for Blackscale it is the Blackscale Warleader's Mark. If this is all in order, you may progress in the Main Quest, via quest Kaezulian Incursion to the point where you have your Gemstone of the 6th seeker after giving Lady Shaina the Captain's Log from doing the Hate's Fury, The Scorned Maiden event. This event is timed and it is vital to bring an Enchanter, as well as balanced Tier 7+ characters.

She will then tell you to seek out Brother Kromtash in Dreadlands (he roams, bringing a tracker is wise). Complete his 4 quests to gain access to The Refuge in the Dreadlands (far west in the zone through a narrow tunnel). You will be KoS there before completing Kromtash's quests, but once you have entry you will be able to bind within their city. Whilst collecting items for Kromtash, be sure to keep anything else that drops from mobs - scales from basilisks, beaks from birds, femurs and ribcages from skeletons - as these will be needed in later Refuge quests.

Now complete the various quests assigned by members of the resistance here, as well as handing in Citadel weapons from adjacent zone Citadel of the Claw to a froglok called Girix - the more quests you complete, the less weapons you will need to hand him to attain apprehensive faction, the faction level needed to hand in for Runic 1. These weapons can also sometimes be found on the listsold system for 40-150+pp.

Speak to a Slave Scholar in Hidden Refuge once reaching apprehensive faction.

Find a slave scholar (Dreadlands  • Refuge) .

You say, 'Hail, a slave scholar'
a slave scholar tells you, 'I am now allowed to sell to you <Player Name>. And ask for your assistance.'
You say, 'What do you need help with?'
a slave scholar tells you, 'Knowledge <Player Name>. You see, Kaezul has equipped his forces with powerful magics... magics from a different age. We scholars call them Runic spells, because they are locked by runes.'
You say, 'Hm. So even if we had the scrolls, we'd need to unlock them somehow?'
a slave scholar tells you, 'Correct. This is where you come in <Player Name>. We have the device that can unlock the scrolls. We've seen them used, we know they work. We have plenty of them, but do not understand the mechanism nor do we have a scroll.'
You say, 'So you give me the device, I figure out the runes and find a scroll?'
a slave scholar tells you, 'Indeed. We don't know how to finish the unlocking rune, but we will continue looking for clues, and report them to you as we figure them out. The runes themselves are pretty ancient, and we believe the Baldakans transport the scrolls on a regular basis. But we know no more than that. Good luck unraveling this mystery <Player Name>. You'll need the power.'

You receive Unfinished Spell Rune from a slave scholar.

At this point you need 3 spell rune items, and your respective Rune Sealed: Class spell that drops from named mobs in Prophet's Landing at the Baldakan city offshore. You will in most cases need a raid force to help kill here depending on the class. Some pulls are linked, and there is a fast re-spawn rate here. If you are not bringing a raid, you best be a well rounded group with CC, a FD puller and around Tier 8+. Someone with knowledge of the different camps is a must, however it should be obvious what classes are what by their behaviour, name, and the spells they cast.

The other three No Drop items are:

These drop from mobs within Ikisith exp dungeons such as Kaesora, The Bloodied Quarry, Citadel of the Claw, and Lake of Ill Omen. You may get lucky, however in all likelihood you will be waiting weeks for these items to drop even if you are exping in these zones frequently - be patient. If a Transmigratory Goop happens to drop in Kaesora, keep this as it is needed for Runic 2 and is also very rare.

To upgrade your runic kit, you require 4 scrolls from various trash in Yclist, The Veiled City.

To be able to receive your Runic2 spell you'll also need.

Torn pages from Spires of Saitha Bosses:

Gather all four for your class.

Find High Researcher Nalak (Spires of Saitha  at 52, 310, -7  • Most West room that is between the two stairs, just West of where you fight Iskkath the Mindful) .

Note: This NPC will not give you commands. You must type your response in say.
High Researcher Nalak wails.
You say, 'Hail, High Researcher Nalak'
High Researcher Nalak says, 'What? WHAT IS IT?'
You say, 'Saitha'
High Researcher Nalak says, 'WHAT? Saitha... Saitha... who, WHO?'
You say, 'I am going to kill you'
High Researcher Nalak says, 'KILL... killed me? Killed ME? .... Yes, YES! I was killed, KILLED. They killed me, they...'
You say, 'Why did they kill you'
High Researcher Nalak says, 'They... they... WHO ARE THEY? They took it from me, took it away... It's mine, it's MINE!'
You say, 'Took what?'
High Researcher Nalak says, 'My... my ANGER, my HATRED, my ANIMOSITY. They took it, took it with their magic... They, they... I can't reach it. Who? Who do I HATE?'
You say, 'Who do you Hate'
High Researcher Nalak says, 'You... YOU. You know them. You HATE them! You, you must find it... Find my ANIMOSITY. It's mine... mine... I will help you. YOU will take my REVENGE against THEM! You must bring it to me...'

Give High Researcher Nalak:

High Researcher Nalak tries to take the strange stone, but his ethereal hands cannot grasp it. 'What, WHAT? Why can't I... why can't I... I need, I need... You must help me, must HELP ME!

High Researcher Nalak returned Coalesced Animosity to you.

Give High Researcher Nalak:

With the stone covered in the strange, semi-ethereal goop, High Researcher Nalak is able to grasp the strange stone and absorb it into his being. 'Yes... YES! I HATE them, those RESEARCHERS, those BASTARDS! They STOLE my work, they BLAMED me for THEIR mistakes, they SACRIFICED my life to that heartless temptress, that WHORE of Kaezul! You will kill her, you will KILL her, YOU WILL KILL THEM ALL. I will have my REVENGE!

Give High Researcher Nalak:

High Researcher Nalak says, 'Yes... THIS spell. I had HEARD of it many times in my LIFE. Many high MYSTICS taught it. From many PIECES I give you one WHOLE. Take it. LEARN it. USE it in the fight against THEM. GO!'

You receive Rune Sealed: <Class Runic 2 Spell> from High Researcher Nalak.

Combine in Kaezulian Magus Rune:

  • Rune Sealed: <Class Runic 2 Spell>

You have fashioned the items together to create something new! = Runic Spell: <Class Runic 2 Spell>!
