found another rune, this time its the balloon rune
I found it in Xasta Grassland,it should be noted that this was the second fight for me on the xasta grasslands{the first was to get the blue flower} it should also be noted that I havent done the first haruna battle yet
im assuming this rune inflicts ballon status on your enemies,but I havent tried it out yet
also, I will post any runes I find on the battle field and not in a store,so if battle field stuff is random,tell me now, and I wont bother posting what area I got the rune in

well thats good to know,maybe I will find a rare rune and report where I got it
if anything I can always come back and read this thread so I remember where I got all my runes from,since im sure you could get double the runes in new game+
just to let you know,there have been battles where I litterally went around the level a few times and found no items{and this was with renes treasure skill at A rank}

yeah they are probably repeated battles that you cleaned already, and some might be just rearranged items such as Obel 5 the first time--you will find Ancient Dish and Cape of Darkness, but there are different configurations for it; after you clear it, the Ancient Ring should be in the same spot for any of the various setups. i also checked the ultra secret underground room (not the Secret Underground Passage - didn't explore thoroughly with Rene when i did that.. was going for S Rank!) since Simeon takes you there for his 'experiment' - nothing

you can dig them up in some battles. i think in Merseto, vs the merchant, the Cyclone Rune is somewhere (read about it only), and in later places there are the other high-level runes. inside Graska Palace you can get a Rage Rune.
for unlimited supply, you need to keep going into the elemental chambers of Obel. the dragons have a chance of dropping them, and you might find 1 (seems to be only 1) of each in the many versions of the levels in chests or through digging.

Champion Orb applies to optional battles but not regular Hunting expeditions.... Obel Ruins, guild quests, recruitment battles (randomly enter an area and help/recruit character such as Snowe and Kate), and Simeon's subquest can be affected by the Champion Rune as long as someone in your member list is equipped with it.
does anyone know if the Sword Rune 3rd spell is affected by MAG? it doesn't seem to be a percentage of your attack, because a guarded hit will still deal full elemental damage.

I think the Champion rune can apply to monster hunt battles, but the monsters in those battles have level caps. If you're already at a high enough level for the monsters to hit their caps, then the rune probably just can't take effect.
The bonus damage from magic swords is directly tied to the MAG stat. In fact, if you try using an elemental sword that's not the character's +Affinity, the bonus damage will be approximately equal to their MAG stat. What's really funny is, if you are on your +Affinity element then the bonus damage will be increased, but if the enemy is on its -Affinity, the bonus damage will stay the same (the bonus damage ignores defense, so it doesn't matter if the enemy's defense is reduced).
Also, in case you never noticed, some elemental swords can cause status effects. Thunder can cause stun, and Wind can cause sleep. I think earth causes something too, probably unbalance.
