I know generally how they work, but do they stack.  i.e. does a sword with a +1 Fire rune and a +2 Fire rune do 2 fire damage or 3 fire damage? How about with the flaming weapon spell? Or how about a +2 fire sword with a +2 fire rune?  You get the idea.

They aren't doing something like having cold and fire cancel each other, are they?

Sorry to ask, but I just don't want to waste the money figuring this out and I KNOW that someone has spent the time figuring this out to the 9th decimal.

 Each rune slot will apply the effects from the rune that is installed. For example, installing +1 and +2 fire runes on a weapon that does +2 fire will give you +5 fire damage. Personally I prefer to mix up the damage types so I'm never completely crippled by a resistance. And I stuck a cold rune on my aodh, because I'm just a sick bastard like that...

Yeah, but later on when there are a lot of runes and a lot of swords with rune slots - you can have a few different types of swords doing mass damage of one type eg. a fire +5 with 3 grandmaster flame (+5) is looking at +20 fire damage. Great against something susceptible to fire! Have a fire sword, an ice sword, a lightning sword and a darkspawn sword and change depending on your enemy... at least for your tank with lots of protective armour.



I also like to give Zevran daggers with paralysis runes because he's fast and can hold off a lot of enemies while you concentrate on one at a time.

So far the only runes I've applied to my duelist warrior is lighting to both sword & dagger. The effects look awesome :-)

Master or grandmaster paralyze on a quick rogue weapon is amazingly effective, especially if you have the rogue talent that deals bonus damage to immobile enemies.
