Seeing as some commenters here seem to be wondering how useful runes really are, I think a comparison to some game starter items might be useful. A little math has a page of just the tier 3 flat armor seals and flat magic resist glyphs coming out equivalent to 2/3 the armor of a cloth armor, and a little over half a null-magic mantle's resistance. At early levels it's a very significant difference, and later on it's just good gravy.
