Same issue as PoE.
True. I would have thought it being in a public space would have helped and it probably does, but yeah. I'd say they should have had it in the starting zone, but that would probably present way more technical/loading issues or something.
The fact that they don't stack is the problem. They just take up a whole lot of space at this point.
Yup. And if you have the misfortune of having duplicate Stolen or Antiquated runes at different charge levels those stack separately as well, which makes sense but is even more clutter. They DO stack if they're fully charged though, at least Stolen runes do.
Gonna just use up everything I have charged right now and be done with it. You get reciprocal runes frequently enough where I'm not gonna bother ditching those, but the stolen/antiquated runes are going.
