Runic Power mode in PUBG Mobile
This match type is one of the key elements introduced in PUBG Mobile with the 1.2 update. It is available for a limited time, from January 12th to March 7th, on the Erangel map. It will offer a fresh battle royal experience to users.
This game mode offers three runes, each of which provides unique powers that help users defeat foes and triumph on the battleground.
When players initially start their game, they have to pick a Rune energy type on the Spawn Island, depending on their playing style. Each Rune gives them two skills, classified into Summon and Boost.
Here are the Runes, along with their skills/abilities:
Flame Rune:
- Summon skill - Summons a wheel of flame that rolls forward slowly, dealing burn damage to enemy players it touches.
- Boost skill - Adds a burning effect to your Ammo for a short time.
Arctic Rune:
- Summon skill - Summons an ice wall. Each block of the ice wall can be destroyed separately. When the ice wall appears, it will lift up players or vehicles directly above them.
- Boost skill - Adds a freezing effect to Ammo for a short time. Freezing reduces the effectiveness of healing.
Wind Rune:
- Summon skill - Summons a semi-transparent shield of wind that reduces the damage of bullets shot from outside the shield.
- Boost skill - Increases your movement and reload speed.
Players require Rune energy/crystals to use the skills/ability. They can pick up the crystals in the match.
