Greeting Defenders,

Here Is the full list of rune drop locations and their weighted chances, which were introduced as part of our temporary fix for the rune crash in the last patch. This system allows every individual rune to be target farmed so players can reliably work toward the upgrades they need while we continue building a long-term solution. Nightmare Campaign is now intended to help players who are still leveling get access to higher tier runes earlier than they normally would, and Massacre Campaign increases the likelihood of seeing a Godly rune during progression. Completing Campaign missions on Hardcore currently gives the best chance at receiving higher-quality runes. We also want to give a huge shoutout and thank you to LichtAbzeichen8, the community member on Discord who created the full weighted list of drops; their work made it possible for us to share this information quickly and clearly with everyone. This system is a stepping stone while we work toward a permanent fix, so please keep the feedback coming as we continue improving rune progression.

Happy Defending,
The Community Development team
