Every character build in Soulstone Survivors can be significantly improved by applying runes that possess special powers and synergies. Our guide will provide you with a complete list of all runes in Soulstone Survivors, as well as tips on how to unlock them.
How to Unlock and Equip Runes in Soulstone Survivors
Runes are powerful effects that can be unlocked in the Skill Tree and equipped in the rune slots to increase build synergies.
You need to unlock the ability to equip runes using Minor Soulstones, which can be earned by simply defeating enemies. Once you have 5 Minor Soulstones you can unlock the Runes skill.
After that, you can start unlocking the runes themselves by completing various challenges throughout the game. Each rune has three tiers of skills that can be additionally unlocked with more Soulstones.
All runes have a cost between 1 and 5, and you have the maximum power of 5 to equip runes in the rune slots of your Skill Tree. For example, you can either equip five runes that each cost 1, or you can equip one rune that costs 5. It’s up to you!
