Path of Idle: Old Gods Rising — the runeword database
Data last updated August 18, 2026 · Path of Idle: Old Gods Rising by Small Mill, released August 12, 2026 ($8.99 on Steam)
Runewords are the deepest crafting system in Path of Idle: Old Gods Rising — and the worst-documented. The in-game Codex knows every recipe; the internet does not. This site tracks every named runeword (10 so far, of an estimated 30–60) in one filterable table, with the granted skill, effect, slot, class fit and a source for every row.
Why trust this table
- Every fact carries a label: ✓ official ✓ corroborated community-reported unconfirmed — and every community-reported row links its source.
- Recipes are shown only when verified. As of today no rune combination is public anywhere — sites showing you “complete” recipe lists are generating them.
- Gaps are stated, not papered over. Your Codex screenshot closes them — confirmed reports are credited.
Quick answers
- How do I make a runeword? Workshop → Socketing: a 3-socket common/fine base whose socket shapes match the three runes named in the skill description. Details →
- Why does my craft fail on the right base? Socket shapes. They roll randomly on the base item; the runeword screen shows the failure reason. Pitfalls →
- Which runewords exist? Defiance, Radiance, Touch, Night Veil, Killing Aura and more — the full known list.

The fastest way to finish this table is players sending what their game already shows: the Codex list, a runeword skill description naming its three runes, a working craft. One screenshot is enough — send it in.
