Runic Knights Challengers: RKC
Anvil T1
  • Gear generally needs to be item level 370 or better
  • Most essences should be tier 12

Anvil T2

Ranged DPS
  • Morale: 100K
  • Crit rating: 20%
  • Finesse: 25%
  • Mastery: 180%
  • Mitigations: 35%

Melee DPS
  • Morale: 120K
  • Crit rating: 20%
  • Finesse: 25%
  • Mastery: 180%
  • Mitigations: 40%

Support (Burg, LM)
  • Morale: 120K
  • Finesse: 40%
  • Mitigations: 40%

Healers
  • Morale: 120K
  • Crit rating: 20%
  • Outgoing healing: 80% (90% for Runekeepers)
  • Mitigations: 40%

Tanks
  • Morale: 200K
  • Mitigations:11K above capped; usually don't need that level with both types at the same time, so swap gear is fine. For heavy tanks, this is 237,208 tactical; 246,436 physical; some tanks like to subtract 18K from this number and assume they will have mitigation scrolls.

To achieve these stats you're probably going to need quite a few purple 382+ and/or teal 375+ items. Using all t12, item level 378 or better essences and capping your LIs will only make the run easier for the entire group.

There is a way to get a fairly quick, but VERY BASIC idea of which instances your toon is most ready to run. It assumes you have chosen the right stats for your class and role, and that you know how to play well -- it will not show you if you have the wrong legacies, or too much/little of any specific stat. It is our gearing guide, developed by several RK members specifically for Runic Knights. Please let Celordal know if you have any questions!
Discord
The Runic Knights have a Discord server. We encourage you to log in and talk whenever you are online and feeling social.

For those familiar with Discord, the server to join is www. discord.gg/2U3tbEG

This can be done through a web browser, and accessed at any time. There are some restrictions to the app within the web browser that you will need to download the actual program for (Push-to-talk being one); however, it is not required if you simply want to jump on and chat.

Once the site has loaded, it will say you have been invited to Runic Knights by Gnix. Select the "Accept Invite" button, and the app will launch within the browser (or the program, if you have it downloaded to your computer).

From there, we have different channels listed in the lower left corner - The main Lobby, Alehouse, Fellowship and Raid channels, Moors for PvP action, Bullroarer for preview test server.

The main window is a chat window, feel free to chat (see below for guidelines), ask for help, etc.

To check to see if anyone is currently on, visit https://discordapp.com/widget?id=316978979988832268&theme=dark


An abbreviated version of the rule of the Runic Knights will be followed in Discord.

It is not a free for all with anything goes, this is a representation of the Runic Knights, and will be governed accordingly in the future.

In the ale house, a little friendly adult language is allowed. What will not be allowed is utter disrespect for other basic kinship rules and disrespect to an officer (or any other user), whether they are a regular user of voice chat or not.


The point of having voice chat is to expand on our main goal, which is to have fun. Let's do so while respecting each other.
