Hone and meditation Topic is solved

[Illuvia]

How high meditation skill do we need to learn runes from hone? I tried searching and I couldn't find any examples of people doing this to go off of.

Hey, so meditation is only one way of learning runes from hone. There are other methods. So no meditation is technically required, that's just the safe route for learning runes.

You can find runic grottos, places where a great amount of runic power was unleashed and happened to leave the echo of one or another rune. This would involve danger and an adventure of some sort, the risks and details of such that would need to be determined with your local mod or through PSF.

You could also find grimoires of runic sages/runewrights that have the information right in them. It'd take probably a good amount of research to understand what they're saying though. But I imagine the skill of research would have to similarly match that of the rune being learned. Expert to expert, competent to competent runes/techniques, etc.

Meditation can be used to learn alternatively. For meditation, you can learn skills at the same level as your meditation skill. SO if you're a master at meditation, you can learn up to master runes for your magic. An umbral mage can't learn lucis, and vice versa, however.

I got this information from the Hone Write-up: Here

I wanted to go the meditation route as it seems to be the simplest. I debated making a mentor but I couldn't think of a good NPC design and the grotto stuff sounds way above my skill level at the moment.

High skills are overrated. There's no skill requirement to go on an adventure but to each their own. I would hope the local moderator would provide you with an appropriately challenging solo or alternatively a series in the form of a plot for when you want to uncover a runic grotto.

Up to you!
