Blood runes are the second highest level runes, behind Soul runes, and the most valuable runes of all. They are used in the highest level spells, the lowest of which being Ruby Crossbow Bolt Enchant, and the highest being Ice Barrage.
Blood runes can be made with the runecrafting skill at 77 Runecrafting with dark essence fragments, and gain 23.8 experience per dark essence fragment. It is possible to reach approximately 38,000 experience per hour.
Note: Using full Graceful outfit and having at least 77 agility are enough to have enough run energy to last the whole trip.
