Many terms such as nonbasic attack are not explained in-game, so this wiki explains them as well as other rules not explained on runes. New and old players alike can get a better understanding of common rune interactions.

Common misconceptions

 * Even veteran players make common mistakes like confusing Successful attack required with attack damage required (See Big Four for other common misconceptions.)

Terms

 * The idea of basic attacks and nonbasic attacks are never actually explained in-game; this place serves to consolidate those ideas.

Unclear rune text

 * Before "Impenetrable" stated it prevents nonbasic attacks, several players wondered why Impenetrable prevented nonbasic attacks. Thus, the page for Impenetrable was updated to explain what the rules actually are (as coded).

Unlisted ability interactions

 * It is known how Knockback works, but this isn't listed in the rule text anywhere. These details are available on the Knockback page. In addition, abilities such as Cleanse and Dispel don't work against all conditions; their pages list what conditions they work against, as reported by players who have tried.

Reading the articles
For those browsing the articles, I recommend starting with Big Four for four very common misconceptions. They're supported by rule text, but are easily overlooked. Also see the pages under "Recommended pages" on top of the wiki.

Since most runes and abilities are straightforward, relatively few have a page here. You can either look at all pages or click Random Page to read something at random.

Note that some content is based on player input, and thus lists may be incomplete. For example, if an ability is missing from the "not prevented by Pacified", it may still not be prevented -- it was just not tested by players yet.

Additional information
This wiki specializes in terms and interactions, thus don't add rule text, unit costs, or other things available on-site. These are already accessible at several fansites. Thus, most straightforward runes/abilities won't have a page, unless there's something to explain about the rune. To discuss a rune, you can edit its page on the larger wiki.

If you find any content which incorrectly describes how runes and interactions are coded, feel free to edit the page. This is especially true for lists which are based on player-submitted information.
