Can you augment elder rune?

Answered by Stephen Mosley

Unfortunately, elder rune equipment cannot be augmented. This means that you cannot add an augmentor to the equipment to gain additional benefits or perks. Augmenting equipment is a popular feature in RuneScape, as it allows players to enhance their gear and customize it to their playstyle. However, elder rune equipment is an exception to this rule.

Elder rune equipment is unique in that it degrades to a broken state rather than completely disintegrating when it reaches 0% charge. This means that you can repair it at an anvil and continue using it, but you cannot augment it. Augmentable equipment, on the other hand, has the ability to be augmented with an augmentor, allowing players to add various perks to the gear.

In order to create elder rune equipment, you must first smith the base armour pieces. This requires a significant amount of Smithing levels and materials. Once you have the base armour pieces, you can then upgrade them to +5, which is a requirement for creating masterwork equipment. Masterwork equipment is considered to be some of the best non-degradable melee gear in the game.

It’s worth noting that the inability to augment elder rune equipment may be disappointing for some players, especially those who enjoy the versatility and customization options that come with augmentation. However, it’s important to remember that there are still many other options available for augmentable gear in the game. If you’re looking to maximize your combat effectiveness, you may want to explore other equipment options that can be augmented.
