Runemasters can cast a combination of three Runes in different orders to cast up to 40 different Runic Invocations. Let’s go over all the combinations and how they work.
Last Epoch: All Runic Invocation combinations
The Runemaster has the choice to use three different elemental runes: Heo, Rah, and Gon, which are Cold, Fire, and Lightning, respectively. Choose from one to three Rune combinations and you’ll get a unique Invocation, which makes this a highly versatile skill to have.
There’s one unique type of Runic Invocation, and that happens when you don’t use any Rune. This will give you an interesting buff:
- Wordless Invocation: Grants a burst of Ward (80 + 1 per Intelligence).
- Mana: 12
- Cooldown: 15 seconds
