Problems with glyph extraction, Rera runes
There is currently a scarcity of Rera runes in game. This makes leveling enchanting and crafting armor enchants at the Vet1 tier extremely difficult and costly. There are several things that make me believe that this is due to recent programing changes.
First: Extraction Mechanics
My success rate for extracting potency runes from veteran glyphs has plummeted. Previously, all glyphs (including veteran) resulted in a consistent distribution of results. Now, I often receive no recovered mats from glyphs of veteran rank....not even an essence. This also occurs for glyphs below my crafting level.
Second: Extraction Reward Tables
There is a problem with the way the "extracted rune" is determined during deconstruction. In addition to not receiving a rune at times , I have also received a Cura rune (lvl9 potency) when extracting a level 7 glyph. This should be impossible
It would be like extracting a Kuta from a green quality glyph.

Kayira✭✭✭✭I have extracted 50 white vet rank 1-3 runes today and all I got was 8 Derado and 12 tas...
1. Why do I get Derado out of vet 1-3 although they are 3-5
2. There seems to be only a chance of 16% to get potency runes out of glyphs it seems
Lastly where do I actually get Rera from if it is not from vet ranke 1-3 although I NEED them to create Vet 1-3?0 -
Shillen✭✭✭You get them from runes out in the world. I dunno I leveled to VR4 and I found over 30 of each rera and pode.Please LOL my comments. I'm an aspiring comedian.0

Amaylia✭✭I extracted 30 Rank 6 (Greater) glyphs and received 7 Rank 7 (Grand) potency runes.
I extracted 30 Rank 5 (Strong) glyphs and received 10 Rank 5 (Strong) potency runes.
I farmed Coldharbour for a while and found many Rank 4 and 5 potency runes, then farmed Stonefalls (VR1) area and found a mix of Rank 6 and Rank 7 potency runes.
I guess for the moment, I would advise others to skip over the VR1 stuff -- the level 50 armors are statistically identical to VR1 -- unless you want to spend a lot of time farming the actual rune nodes. Also, you could just use the store bought white quality enchantments, which will end up costing you about 1400G. If you are dead set on wanting to use VR1-3 and don't want to spend time gathering from nodes.
The extraction thing certainly does seem like a bug!0 -
NerfEverything✭✭✭✭✭Extraction is currently broken. But Rera's aren't scarce. I've found 17 of them, about the same # as Pora, Pode, Pojode, Kedeko, etc. Potency runes are somewhat scarce in general, but the drop rate is the same for all of them.0

Why was this thread moved to General Discussion and not Crafting Discussion?People keep telling me they're gonna buy me an ale. They never do.

maxilaub17_ESO✭✭✭For those who don't know about the bug regarding level 9 potency runes , once you take the skill to craft with potency 9 runes you:
1. Can't recover a potency 9 rune from DE'ing ANY level glyph
2. Hireling no longer sends you ANY potency runes
3.I personally have never found a potency 9 rune from Runestones since I up my skill to potency 9 (not sure if this one is bad luck or part of the bug too)?Edited by maxilaub17_ESO on May 21, 2014 6:17PM1 -
SithisHailSoul ShrivenThis game tends to everything but enchanting... it's bs... I'm damn near lvl 26 enchanting and have never once come across a rera rune... and now I can't complete my daily writ... it's just stupid.. especially since you can't buy them or they don't spawn nearly as often as ore and even at that it's 1/3 the chance you'll get the kind of rune you want let alone all the varieties in each type... really unbalanced imo"Sweet Mother, sweet Mother, send your child unto me, for the sins of the unworthy must be baptized in blood and fear"

✭✭✭✭✭This is going to be one of those wonderful, "derp" moments.
1, the thread is from May last year, when the drop tables were still bjorked up.
2, the materials required for your writ are determined by your spent skill points in that writ. So, if you need Rera runes, you need access to the first silver zone (and maybe the second, I don't remember). If you don't have access to that yet, you may have upgraded your skill past where you are in the game, and locked yourself out of that writ for the time being.0
