The Wiki says 'the players will be able to remove and swap the runestones' instead of 'the player will be able to get the runestones removed'. Could mean something.

"the player" means you, as in the person sitting behind the computer. Don't read too much into the semantics. Trust me, I'm a Sysop!

And where is the artisan reference anyway?

Got it even later than you can imagine. Oh well the mystic artisan seems to be somewhat confirmed. Thanx for the link by the way.

''And I'd have to find a new fountain to stand in front of.''

''But i really like this fountain.''

''Yes, it would be much easier for the rest of us if you fought your way through hell and killed the devil for us.''

''Let's do what Farnham said.''

''I have to pee.''

''The best solution is for you to fight diablo while the rest of us stand in front of huts.''

''Can't a fellah pee in peace?''

ROFLMAO!!! Loved Cain and the Hero.

Just wondering. There could still be a chance that the player could swap the runes himself/herself. Maybe the restriction would be to in town or something.

I've been to the gym for only two years. But it got me addicted to working out and i try to carry out at least a few routines at home, six days a week. That is because i don't get the time these days as i have to go to tuitions in the early morning and i hate going to the gym in evenings. I'm pretty happy with the outcome. And yeah, not being able to carry out the routines at any particular day gets me frenzied. I wonder how you were able to take such a long break Meph.

As for shakes, i take them on an alternate day basis. I skip them sometimes when i forget to go to the store. But i'm a pure vegan and so i have to stick to beans and soy milk. They taste like shit. So protein shakes, for me, are just a tastier substitute for protein supplements. But for the people who can consume eggs or chicken, i don't think these shakes really matter.

All thats not for body-building exactly. Its just become a habit.

OMG!,I never thought it would 'cost' something to remove a Runestone. But now that you say, it seems obvious. But i don't think the costs would vary as per rune type/level. Removing is removing. The costs might have varied if we were buying the runes. But that's just my opinion.

And I'm pretty sure that their rarity will depend on their level. Like, lower runes will occur more frequently in the game while the higher ones will be found less occasionally. Isn't it?

Wait. On second thought, if the earlier fitted runes don't get destroyed after removal, then getting a rune removed would actually be like buying a rune. The rune stays in your inventory either way. So maybe the costs would vary after all.

I'm pretty sure i read somewhere that there was a loot radius and if you died outside it you don't get the loot. But if you died inside it and the party finishes off the boss without you, you still get your share. So i guess you need to stay real close to the boss and rely on your teammates to get you back up. But if you try to respawn and don't get back in time you might not get anything.

I know nothing of the guy above. But he listens to DJ Shadow which i think is pretty cool.

Hmm, well thanx. Its just what i was hoping for. Earlier added runes being destroyed would have worked but not being able to swap them would have been a disaster.

@madeyez: Well, that would have been just like swapping skills during combat.

This is going off-topic. Can somebody please answer the questions i asked or confirm the already given answers? And provide any hints or links for help if you know about any.

Q- Are we allowed to swap an already fitted runestone with a new one further on in the game and if yes, does the earlier fitted rune get destroyed or stays in your inventory?

Well just wanted to know that. And i asked it because i thought it would be pretty shitty to be stuck with one rune for a pretty good skill throughout the game. I feel like we would need to first see what effect suits us the best and then choose the kind of runestone we would want to add to that skill permanently. You know like hit and trial. But then again, the runestones would be pretty rare.

Anyways, quick question, so would that mean the already fitted rune would get destroyed when we add a new one?

So we know that if we add a particular runestone to a skill, it changes the way the skill functions. We also know that different runstones have different effects on any single skill. Now i know that there can be only one rune inserted in any skill at any time, but the thing i wanted to know was; if we add a rune to a skill, is the rune added to it permanently or can we swap the rune later on?

Like if we have added a crimson rune to our lvl 6 whirlwind, can we add a indigo one to the same skill at a higher lvl so that the additional outcome of the skill is changed from shooting rock and gravel to spawning smaller whirlwinds!?

Welcome to the community.

True. There is so much left for me to play too. I played GTA 4 at a friends house a few times, never bought it myself though. It had really great effects. Tiny ones like putting on a helmet automatically after getting on a bike etc. I even loved how the player used to ricochet off after collisions. Just like the combine rag dolls in HL 2. And the graphics were to die for. I couldn't handle the vehicles though. It happens to me every time i play a game first time.

Seems to be a really cool headed guy. And a great news manager. And not to mention the sig.

Once there were three men walking down a road and they saw a big demon which turned out to just be a purple unicorn. The unicorn's name was Ryan Hurst. He loved to eat little girls and fat boys. The unicorn also loved to hop around naked and lick tiny children in a striped two piece bikini. The men ran away as fast as Speedy Gonzales. But just then, an entire army of hairless cats riding filthy swine that were flying anti-Nazi planes zoomed down and before they knew it, the world became a place full of clowns.
