I was curios about me being a W/N and when I find a rune that needs to be identify and you get 3 choices can I apply necromancer update to my armor. I have not come across one yet, but I have seen them for monks, archers, etc.

No, only Warrior runes or universal runes can be applied to Warrior armor. Each class has runes specific to that class, and those runes can only be used by that class. Secondary does not qualify. The universal runes are.... universal, so they can be used by any class. So outside of Warrior runes (Absorption, Strength, Tactics, Sword, Axe, Hammer), you are stuck with Vigor, Vitae and Attunement. And I almost forgot the condition runes, so you could also use Purity, Clarity, Restoration, and Recovery.

Also note - if you have any hero's, you can put runes on their armor's as well.

They work exactly the same way as you - you can only put class specific, universal or condition runes on them. So if you picked up a Elementalist hero, you could equip them with elementalist runes (ie minor fire, Minor air, etc) or universal/condition runes (ie minor vigor, vitae, etc).
