Main Trait Rune Enchants

Main Traits are fixed abilities that can only appear on specific runes. If you wish to utilize a certain Main Trait, you'll have to farm for the designated rune that they're tied to.

Although they are guaranteed to appear on their corresponding runes, the values of their effects are randomized with every rune you get.

Secondary Trait Rune Enchants

Secondary Traits are extra buffs or abilities that have a random chance of appearing on runes. You could get only one Secondary Trait or a combination of multiple traits. However, each of them can only appear on runes for certain types of equipment.

Since you can't guarantee the Secondary Traits that will appear on a rune, you might need to spend some time farming for optimal ones. The values of their effects are also randomized.

Endurance Armor A% more stamina.
Phase Armor A% longer invincibility on dash.
Stride Armor A% longer dash distance.
