How to Farm Wealth Runes in Lost Ark

What are Wealth Runes?

Wealth Runes are Skill Runes that provide bonuses to your character’s Identity Gauge in Lost Ark. Wealth Runes are divided into four rarities, with each rarity providing increasingly powerful bonuses as you move up the tiers.

• Uncommon Wealth Rune: Increases Identity Gauge by 10% on skill hit.
• Rare Wealth Rune: Increases Identity Gauge by 20% on skill hit.
• Epic Wealth Rune: Increases Identity Gauge by 30% on skill hit.
• Legendary Wealth Rune: Increases Identity Gauge by 40% on skill hit.

As you can see from the list above, Wealth Runes primarily improve a character’s Identity Gauge regeneration upon skill hit. Therefore, classes that are dependent on having a full Identity Gauge will benefit greatly from Wealth Runes.

Where to get Wealth Runes?

If you’re looking to build your character based around their Identity Guage, you will want to get your hands on some Wealth Runes. Unfortunately, some Wealth Runes are quite rare, and the requirements to get other Wealth Runes can be quite tedious.

With that said, here are all the possible sources for Wealth Runes in Lost Ark.

• Uncommon Wealth Rune (Green) – Purchase from Stronghold Merchant Tuleu for 1,420 Adventurer’s Seals.
• Uncommon Wealth Rune (Green) – Drops by chance after you defeat Tooki King on Tooki Island.

Are Wealth Runes worth it?

The Wealth Rune is not essential to every class in Lost Ark, and the bonuses you get from Wealth Rune will only be noticeable if you’re using a class that relies heavily on their Identity Gauge.

Depending on how you choose to build your character in Lost Ark, you may or may not find the Wealth Rune useful. With that said, most players should find Wealth Runes useful until they finalize their class’ builds.

Conclusion

Wealth Runes are important Skill Runes for Identity Gauge-dependent builds. The Identity Gauge regeneration bonus that Skill Runes provide will greatly enhance your character’s ability to stay in its most powerful state in PvE or PvP in Lost Ark.
