The damage proc does very little damage and makes unholy bond(talent) unplayable if you’re playing with just Rune of Razorice. In my opinion its damage should be based off our auto attacks at the very least.

Im pretty sure for frost you would go for Rune of Fallen Crusader rather than rune of razorice if you are using a two hander because frost already has some abilities that will passively apply it, such as the Avalanche talent and glacial advance. You would only really use rune of razorice if you are dual wielding, which it would need to go in the offhand for a higher chance of getting procs

Yes.
Buff them all except Fallen Crusader. So tired of it.

i’m bloody sick of fallen crusader being the best in nearly every situation. i think every recognised build should have it’s own runeforge enchantment that performs extremely well for it like with hysteria for example, though arguably it should buff runic power damage not it’s generation as breath is a point of contention. unholy should have a rune based around disease damage and one for pets specifically, rune of the apocalypse could be that but it’s so terrible that it needs to be reworked asap.
no-one uses stoneskin gargoyle, or apocalypse. unending thirst is niche af for leveling last i heard, and i don’t even know who uses sanguination though it theoretically sounds okay for blood, but i very much doubt that seeing as fallen crusader is picked anyway. if they nerfed fallen crusader we’d very likely just use a regular enchant which defeats the whole point of runeforging.

Buffing other rune forges is the way over nerfing FC for sure.
Would love to see more rune forge diversity. Having a rune forge for execute damage similar to sanguination but works for FS and death coil. Maybe one that has a MS effect for PvP. Maybe specific 1h and 2h rune forges to balance the fact DW has an extra one.
So much potential to add flavour and build diversity through this system. Shame its not utilised.

i’d like to add to this, call it Rune of Reaping and give the class access to it rather than only unholy, and give unholy a new passive in that spot to compensate them.
“Your Soul Reaper, Scourge Strike, Frost Strike, Festering Strike, Heart Strike, Death Strike, Death Coil, Obliterate and Marrowrend deal 30% additional damage to enemies below 35% health.”
that on it’s own might be good enough to beat fallen crusader.

I’m all for changes. I have a feeling devs don’t want to see weapon swapping for rune changes during fights though, so adding periodic damage by way of execute or buffed runic damage may not fit.
That play style can be fun, but probably a lot to handle for the casual player base.

Runeforging should be portable anyway.
runeforging in general just needs re-thought out and re-done.

runeforges already have a cd put on them when you switch weapons in combat to deter this practice
