So when did vigor runes get removed? - Guild Wars Forums

And more importantly, why?

Do any still exist? Can you find them in PvE? Are they worth a buttload of coin if you can/do find one? This has been festering in my mind since I came back not more than two weeks ago to see they vanished from the hands of Rune vendors...

people must be using them on their heros or saving them up for GW:EN i had a major vigor drop 2 days ago which i promptly put on a hero...so supply must be low...since purple/blue items are now affected by the loot scaling

They haven't been removed,Rune traders only sell things that they have in stock.
So if they had 100 runes and players bought all those 100 and nobody would sell any to them, then they wouldn't have any more available , until some are sold to them.

Do you mean minor or major? The trader has been "refusing to buy that item" for my minor vigor runes for months now, as the price steadily increased. And I've never seen that before in my two years of playing.

I checked today and all vigor runes were available. But as other said, it is possible that they are temporary out of stock when more ppl buy then sell.

Just keep checking from time to time or buy from other players.

Just wondering because I've almost finished an entire play-through and I haven't seen one.

they wont buy minor vigor cause of the quest in nf, it gives a minor rune of vigor as a reward, they did it so no one can take to differand campagen and sell then delete char make new one and repeat, though you can make 5k in an hour and do nothing wrong......

They are still dropping; I got a superior vigor just 2 days ago.

Silly question here...are you looking under the right category? They made changes to the rune traders and the vigors are under the "none" category.
