Hello gurus!
I'm sorry for my english;

My questin is a simple one: Why runes of the same type can't be stocked in the inventory? I want to preserve superior runes of the same type why i have to use different inventory cells?
Are there technical problems or is only a gameplay characteristic?

See the armors they get salavged out of had differnt ' gold values' so basicly they are 'differnt' in-which they cannot be stacked.

I know I would love to stack all the Rune of Vitae's I find.

Its so people are forced to sell them. If they would stack you would never get the superior life rune at the trader cause everyone would keep them.

he is talking about runes stacking in your invertory... not on armors.

I would say its fair to bet that no one would stock pile sup vigors just to compress money... too much to lose if they did so.

definately an economy issue I think, I was thinking about this last night cos i was packed with stupid attunement runes, and realised if i could stack them, so would everyone and it would just raise price/reduce supply on the more demanded runes without a trader to temper the price.

I thought that you could stack rune sbut I went back through the update notes and there wasn't anything there about it.

I agree its good that you can't stack them otherwise insignias would never be sold from the trader.

Yep, I also think runes should be stackable. I have half my inventory filled with runes, usually of the same type. For example I have 5 runes of vitae that take 5 slots...

So most people sell them to trader, thus creating a healthy supply of surplus runes and keeping prices down
