Potency Runes

Falandarin

Where did they go? Ever since the rune change last patch there are none to be found. There are tons of Ta's though and most of the time that's all that's there. I harvested 12 "Runes" today and there were no potency runes and I'm out so I can't do the Writ. Is this bugged or working as intended?

If it's JUST a Ta, I'm guessing someone picked out the other rune(s) and left the Ta behind. Same things as when you sometimes harvest an alchemy mode and don't get anything but worms.

You should be receiving 1 Aspect and 1 Essence rune from each runestone node. There is a 33% chance that the runestone will also have Potency rune (which you can now buy from enchanter NPC's)

What platform are you on? If PC didn't they recently fix a bug that was giving too many runes from a node or something? If so, could be a bug, but it could also just be bad RNG.

PS4. Thanks for the reply. I guess I'm just SOL.

This is not just bad luck on your part I don't know what they heck they are thinking. Maybe 10% of runestones are giving potency runes. It sucks. The Kutas and Rekutas, etc. are nice, but for crying out loud. This needs to be fixed! And, no, people aren't just picking out potency and leaving the rest. Not when I get gold and purple Aspects plus an Essence in a runestone but no potency. How the heck is this supposed to encourage people to make glyphs?

Great, so we can now buy for 500+ what we used to be able to hunt for. How is this helpful? I used to harvest only blue and red nodes and leave the essence ones most of the time since I have essence runes coming out my ears. Now, I have more essence coming out my ears and am running out of blues. Grrrr.

Zenimax...please put potency runes back in the field and/or make people take all or nothing. Rune nodes should be producing 33% essence, 33% aspect, 33% potency.

You can now buy potency runes at most NPC mystics/enchanters.
