HoF: Runic Magic is always greyed out and cannot be used | Forums

[mamontgomery]

I bought HoF, and am playing the campaigns, and Runic Magic seems to be broken. It is hard to believe this is a bug, since this is such a major game fature, so perhaps I am missing something.

The hero has expert profeciency in Runic Magic, knows lots of runes, and has lots of resources to support casting them. But in combat, the runes are always greyed out in the magic book.

Am I missing something here? I thought that maybe the problem is that the runes had to be purchased at a castle, but there does not seem to be any interface for this.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what I am doing wrong, or is this a game bug? Thanks in advance for your help!

When it's a creatures turn the runes should appear above the initiative bar on the screen. There's also a resource bar on the side indicating how much you have and how much the resource cost.

Great, thanks! I knew I must have been missing something.

Glad it's working for you. I would also like to point out that you can use the hero skills such as greater rune or refresh rune from the spellbook on a creature after that creatrure has used a rune.
