Hey,

was wondering if it was possible to somehow remove a rune after applying it. :S picked up a rune and wanted to see what it did, lost 50 hp and now i'm useless lol. Anything i can do? Or do i have to recraft the armor?

You'll have to either recraft the armor, salvage the armor and get the rune back (losing your armor in the process) or apply a different rune to the same piece of armor.

you can apply another minor rune (cheap one) over the major to remove the hp penalty.

EDIT

you applied a major rune for the 50 penalty.

use a minor of the same type which has no penalty to overwrite the major

Sometimes I use an expert salvage kit on my gloves (with a rune in them) and it doesn't salvage, so if you can manage it, try not to put runes in your gloves.

it isnt the gloves.

any used rune has a chance of being salvaged but is not guaranteed
