Rune Engraving is arguably the best new addition to World of Warcraft Classic Season of Discovery. After you collect a rune, you can apply it to your armor to gain a new ability. But what if you have two runes for the same armor piece? Can you change them?
Since Rune Engraving is very similar to Enchanting, players are wondering whether it’s possible to replace your runes, and if so, whether you need to collect the old rune again to reapply it. If you’re wondering, worry not, as I’ll tell you everything you need to know about how to change runes in WoW Classic SoD.
Can you change runes in WoW Classic SoD?
Yes, you can. More importantly, you should change runes and experiment. Every rune in SoD gives you new passive or active abilities that can come in handy in different situations.
Best of all, changing runes is free. You don’t need to spend any gold or items to change runes. So, there’s really no reason why you shouldn’t change them. On my Paladin, I change runes whenever I need to tank a dungeon, and afterward, I switch back to my DPS runes.
How to change runes in WoW Classic SoD
Just follow these few simple steps to change your Runes:
- Open your character screen.
- Select the rune you want on the right side of the character screen, where all the runes are located.
- Select the item you want to enchant the rune to (it doesn’t matter if it already has a rune).
- Click on the item.
- Wait for rune engraving to finish.
- Experiment with your new ability!
It’s really that simple. Change runes as much as you want, whenever you want. Like I said, it’s not nearly as inconvenient as changing talent points.
