WoW Classic Season of Discovery Rune Tier List - Best Runes for Each Class Spec in SoD Phase 1

In World of Warcraft's Season of Discovery, players can utilize the Rune Engraving system to unlock new class abilities and expand their roles and specializations. These runes can be found throughout the game world as part of the Discoveries feature, which encourages exploration and collaboration with other players. Each class has a set of runes that can be engraved onto specific gear slots, such as chest, legs, and gloves. These runes are permanent and can be freely applied and reapplied out of combat. They offer unique effects and can be used to customize and enhance a player's build, allowing for combinations of damage, healing, and more. Some runes even provide faction-specific buffs for classes like paladins and shamans. The Season of Discovery introduces over 100 runes across all classes, with each class having access to 12 runes. But there is no doubt that not all of them are Best in Slots, so we try to rank them based on the stats provided by each runes and the effects on specific classes and specs. We believe this will be useful for your class picking and gearing plans. Let's jump into the WoW Classic SoD Rune Tier List now.
