So Runes and augmented destruction perks...

Post » Fri Dec 14, 2012 3:25 am

Hello,

started playing again and wanted to know if this got changed/patched?

When i stopped playing about 7 months ago dual casting affected the runes but not the augmented perks. Has someone tested this preferably on PC with console.

If not does somebody know a good enemy that gets almost killed by a normal rune cast so i can test this myself?

Runes are not affected by augmented perks. this hasn't changed. that said, runes are still my favorite destruction spells. Until I get incinerate, I do most of my killings with fire runes.

Wall spells are affected by augmented perks. They do much more damage as traps and cost a lot less.

Do you play on a console, or the devil's machine (pc) ?

If it's the latter, consider downloading http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/19. You can also find it on http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=87144366&searchtext=unofficial+skyrim+patch. It fixes runes and their bad relation with the augmented perks, among a myriad of other bugs.

Too bad :(. I love the rune spells for my character. It's so much fun to mess with enemies with quiet cast runes and throw voice. You can kill the hardest enemies with this without ever getting noticed.

But still more damage is always better :/.

I assume this tactic doesn't work with walls since the enemies will notice where the casting is coming from?

Wait, If you quiet cast runes they don't instantly come after you when they are triggered? If this is true I know what I am doing....
