Popular Post ombowombo Posted August 11, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted August 11, 2017 (edited) After reading up on how to get that damned rune, I gave up on the Platinum after 2 hours of senseless reloading. Then I started playing the dlcs. When playing the bright lord campaign, any lvl 25 rune will get you the trophy for the base game, and they are much more common to find there. So don't bother finding it in the main game. Also: runes higher than lvl 25 won't pop the trophy! Edited August 11, 2017 by ombowombo 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matrim_Drasgen Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 That was how I ended up with my trophy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papert0wng1rl Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 Had to resort to this method to get my level 25 rune. No matter what I did in the main game, after hours of setting it up over and over again, I kept getting stupid Epic runes. It's done now, so good riddance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drfk168 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Glad that I saw this trophy was much easier to get by just playing The Bright Lord DLC. I left it until the very last and got a level 25 rune to pop the platinum after about three hours of playing the DLC. The first three or four runes I got were level 22-24 and the right one dropped after those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanDeaM Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 (edited) I cleared the entire Bright Lord campaign and I never saw a level 25 rune. Edit* I got it now Edited December 15, 2020 by VanDeaM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matto_lsi Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 I didn't have much trouble with either the lvl 25 or lvl 30 rune. I did what the guide said in both cases (lvl 20 warchief for main game/lvl 25 warchief for dlc, NO death threat, got intel on him, exploited his weakness or hatred, and let him kill me once before I killed him), backed up my save once I set up those conditions, and then went to the 'Unfinished Business' mission and killed him. Took 2-3 tries for each one before getting the appropriate non-epic rune. Maybe you didn't meet all the criteria first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zid2016 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 (edited) Pick a lvl 24 captain( in bright lord dlc) and kill them. They drop lvl 25 runes. Edited December 19, 2020 by zid2016 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeWatsonAstro Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 You don't need the DLC to help you with my method. What I ended up doing was going after a warchief who I death threated. Normally that would mean greater chances of epic runes EXCEPT you don't need to kill them yourself. Convert a few bodyguards to your side and get them to land the killing blow. Guaranteed not to be an epic. So warchief +2, death threat +1, Know their weaknesses/strengths +1 and let them kill you beforehand so that you get the +1 for revenge. As long as they're level 20 that will result in a level 25 rune. From start to finish it shouldn't take more than an hour. I did this and got it on my first attempt. That was AFTER about 8 hours of grinding where I got about 25 epics in a row. I even spent about 2 hours reloading saves to save time and got epic after epic that way too. That was all without the death threats, I just couldn't get a non-epic rune. Hope this helps! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After getting nothing but Epic Runes for hours on end I had the bodyguards kill the warchief and got a level 26 rune on the first try. Thanks for the tip! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish I would have known earlier that epics only drop when you land the killing blow. Would've saved me a lot of time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
