The process of crafting blood or soul runes will be slightly different to other runes in the game. Trying to craft blood or soul runes with your usual essence or pure essence will leave you with nothing more than dust as the essence crumbles while being crafted. Only essence imbued by the power of the dark altar found in Kourend will be suitable for blood or soul rune crafting.

The introduction of soul and blood Runecrafting will not increase the maximum possible experience per hour for the skill. We would like to make sure that the existing top tier methods are left untouched.

Eww no thanks. Sounds convoluted and unnecessary.

Pure Essences should work. And there's no justification why higher-level content doesn't give progressively higher exp rates.

Will have to vote no to this concept.

I'll be voting no until we are told it will be 30k xp/hr or less max. As others have pointed out and I didn't realize before when they say less than max exp they might be talking about lavas. Definitely don't support a semi profitable over astral rcing exp rate.

I don't think this rcing update should be targeted towards making rcing easier(faster exp, more profit, more afk, a combination of those etc) but instead giving high rcers something useful. Just as an example something like catalystic runes or runes that have damage % increase and are untradable. We need more rewards, aka untradable things that can only be acquired through high skills.

I'll be voting yes. As a mage I definitely support more supply of Blood/Soul runes into the economy as both are very expensive, and I believe that skillers should have access to those rune types for training variety and for profit.

I have no real reason or attraction to train Runescrafting as I can buy all the runes I need. Only reason I could even think to bother with RC would be to fill my Trident but even that isn't enough atm. Being able to have my own Blood Runes would be a great incentive, I'd advise though that the Blood Crafting process be not too slow, as a whole new spellbook will have demands on Blood Runes as well.

If a Zeah diary was released it could perhaps have rewards or incentives for Runescrafting in the B/S altars.

Imbued essence is an interesting idea.. but if it's too tedious simply as a control method against lots of new Blood Runes circulating into the economy than that would just be silly.

Could we please also make these available in the Abyss? I don't see any reason to force Runescrafting in Zeah, and at least with an Abyss option (if it were faster than Zeah) would increase attraction in crafting those rune types.

I agree with posts earlier that higher rune types deserve higher XP/Hr. I think it's silly that the Blood Altar is already in the abyss and locked, but won't be open to keep Nature crafting as a top tier RC method for XP, especially because we already have Lavas. [Devblog would've made it clear if they could be crafted in the Abyss I'm sure] -

Really not understanding why people feel that Blood and Soul runes should have no competition against Xp/Hr or profit of other runescrafting types.... if it's mediocre in every sense no one will do it. -

Why? Any reason behind this thought?
Just because it's how it is now?
Why shouldn't a higher level rune be more profitable and have good xp?
What would be the point of adding the ability to make them, or even getting your RC up to the levels to craft them? Everything's an integrity issue if you troll enough.

I'll Vote 2x no for upcomming poll, dead content for me. price of bloods and souls after release will crash a lot, as soul runes don't have any good use so more runes on market will make them worthless. Also I see no reason why people would make them, nothing can't win with double nats. about bloods if they won't be better exp than deaths runes why would we make them? Im sure that after release price of bloods and deaths will be the same, and for me deaths have much more use (Trident).
Abyssal sire 1 month after release dead content and now u're making another one useless update sad ;/
