Topic: Rune Cubing not working

[mystclgem]

:s499:  Having some trouble with the runes in cube.  I downloaded the CE 755. the only prob I seem to have is that when I put three like runes in the cube they don't ungrade to the next rune anymore. Please help

I think this recipe is a) deleted or b) up from thul you need a certain gem to upgrade.

I think it is a) but in fact getting runes in this modification is very easy Just get some eggs, cube them and hope for high-runes or rightclick on hearts to get a zod rune.

Higher runes can be downgraded: Put a rune into the cube and transmuting it gives you the next lower rune. For example you put a "ist"-rune into the cube and you will get "mal"-rune, transmute again and it will be "pul" then "lem" and so on.

cool, i thought it might be something like that. I more q's though what do you mean about the eggs? When I cube eggs all I get are dolls.

[DrowElf]

You get dolls when you cube egg shells.

When you cube complete found eggs, you get different items - perfect gems, runes, dolls, elixirs ...

If you use the skill Find Potion you may find souls which transform to complete eggs by clicking

I think you always put more than one egg into the cube. Try only one egg and you will get (just as drow said) a random item (which drow had listed). In fact there is a chance that you will get a random rune from el to zod but do not forget to rightclick the "rune" ^_^

I have (recently) cubed runes (7.60d).  You mention only having downloaded 7.55... the rune cube recipes were not enable somewhere in the time frame of 7.55 but have been re-enabled.

If you are SinglePlayer and like the skelliemancer, don't upgrade to 7.60... the skellie got nerfed and corpse explosion got broken; the psy assassin got nerfed heavily.  If you're playing on the realms, you need to update to 7.60e and take the bad with the good.

  ty all, I see what you mean now,

@ aleksa
between pul and mal is UM
so pul->um->mal ...
mfg fears

Oh, sorry, i forgot the most important rune...

There is a german saying: "Man sieht den Wald vor lauter Bäumen nicht"

Something like: You do not see the wood because of the many trees standing around

Yes, you are completely right but the system shall be clear, right?

[webwalker]

In English: You can't see the forest for the trees.

In Cynic: You can't see the forest for the logging equipment.

and the runes are square, not cubical... so what's with "cubing runes"? (nvm)

@webwalker haha funny i like it

Yes, rune cubing doesnt work but thats okay cuz runes are sooo easy to find.  trust me, you'll find more runes than you can use.  i have 40 zods on a mule, and about half the stash full of runes down to Ist, and im only in act 5 hell.  between eggs and hearts, its easy to get w/e you want.  so just runeword away and dont worry about getting more runes, they'll come

Yes, rune cubing doesnt work
