August Special Runes

Horizontal Boost

This rune doubles all of the normal runes that share the same row. For this month, that means doubling:
  • 2 Amethyst I
  • 1 Amethyst II
  • 1 Emerald I
  • 2 Garnet I
  • 2 Gold I
  • 1 Gold II

Vertical Boost

This rune doubles all of the normal runes that share the same column. For this month, that means doubling:
  • 1 Amethyst I
  • 1 Garnet I
  • 1 Garnet II
  • 1 Garnet III
  • 2 Gold I
  • 1 Gold II

Butterfly Lure

  • Provides +25% chance for an extra butterfly, up to 50% if there are two runes.
  • The most butterflies you can spawn with this Rune active is 3 total.
  • This is not additive to the mutation. This is an extra roll of the dice, so to speak.
  • Assuming you had everything, your overall chance of getting:
    • 1 Butterfly: 35%
    • 2 Butterflies: 50%
    • 3 Butterflies: 15%

Hidden Wealth

  • This rune increases overall Gold Drop by a % for each Ability you have active (Swarm, Smokescreen, etc).
  • Even Collossal Crab adds a bonus for the few seconds that it is "active".
  • The bonuses are additive, so if one ability increases by 75% then two will increase by 150%.
