Golden Grace Rune

An armor rune that grants 6 absorption hearts when your health drops low.

The Golden Grace Rune watches your health and grants 6 absorption hearts when you take heavy damage. It only kicks in when your real health drops low, so it works as a clutch save in boss fights rather than a constant buffer.

Effect

While wearing armor with the Golden Grace Rune applied, 6 absorption hearts are granted automatically when your health drops low. The hearts soak up the next chunk of damage for you. It does not stack with itself, so wearing multiple Golden Grace pieces does not double the absorption.

Tips

  • Apply to your helmet or chestplate since those rarely have competing rune options.
  • Excellent for boss fights -- the panic absorption can save you from an otherwise lethal combo.
  • Don't try to play around it like a constant buffer. It only triggers when you're already in trouble.
  • One of the most expensive runes to craft due to the gold requirements. Save it for your best armor.
