How to get
Drop from the named elite Durgan, the Runic Hammer: 1.5% chance per eligible participant, rolled for each. The chance can be changed at pve.relic.durgan-hammer-drop-chance.
Unique Effect: Rune Anvil
Crits engrave runes on the target; The 3th rune calls down a runic hammer from the sky.
| Rule | Value |
|---|---|
| Trigger | Weapon critical hits. Each engraves a rune on the target (up to 3, renewed for 5 s), visible by rotating over it. |
| Runic hammer | On the 3th rune, a circle marks the target and, 0.4 s later, the hammer falls: 180% hit as fire in a radius of 2.5 blocks and stun for 1.5 s. |
| Damage rules | No dodge, critical or armor; Elemental resistances, exposure, and boss arena rules apply. The extra damage does not count as a hit (effects do not chain). |
| PvP | It works the same; the hammer only hits the marked player. |
| Pets | Strikes from pets and companions do not count. |
| Audio | Runes use discrete contacts. The third rune's warning is short and ends before the scheduled drop by eight ticks; the impact has its own sound. Category Players; accept the resource pack. /pve audio status shows the state of the audio and packet. Sounds follow the simultaneity limit; boss warnings take priority. |
3D Model Own: The runic hammer cut from the bone of the Durgan model's weapon, with the same texture atlas as the elite, at ~75% of the actual size of the elite's weapon. Behaves like an apple (skills and apple animation).
