Rugnor Goldgleam

Last Updated: June 4, 2025

Rugnor Goldgleam Overview

Rugnor Goldgleam is a Void affinity epic from the Dwarves faction. Rugnor was introduced into Raid during the festive fusion of December 2020 as one of the epics required to fuse Pyxniel from the High Elves.

Rugnor has a fantastic kit with a single target decrease defence and weaken ability on his A3, and leech ability on his A1. These two skills are perfect for the Clan Boss, Spider, Faction Wars boss, and Sorath in the Doom Tower. Rugnor has a great passive that decreases the cooldown of his A3 every time he takes 15% of his HP damage even through shields.

The only weakness in Rugnor’s kit is his base defence, it’s incredibly low and it will be difficult to bolster enough to keep him alive in extended fights. Also, his A2 places a Shield on himself & boosts Turn Meter, however he sacrifces 15% of his HP which can kill him!
