| The
Rune-Keeper is an effective and versatile class who can directly damage
opponents, buff and debuff, or heal allies, but only one of these three
sets of skills at a time. Their abilities with runes allow them
to use cold, fire or electrical damage in combination or in specialty. The traits, skills and deeds of a rune-keeper are fairly complex, and it is a good idea to learn know what can do what before you begin play. Having a good idea of what you skills can do allow you to cycle back and forth between battle, steady and damaging attunement quickly and efficiently.
