What do you do with rune altars?

Down in skuldoon, the big blacksmith let me borrow his hammer but said it needs to be recharged at a rune alter. i went to the one in the forbidden zone and tried to "use" it but nothing happened. does anyone have a clue what we're supposed to do with them?

I believe ruin altars have to deal with anyone taking on "Celestial quests". I haven't used them myself but heard someone talk about them too.

Theortically they are used to recharge Weapons although, I have only found three that work.

I visited several ... and killed hordes of 'mob spawns' ... even hit the fire alter with my flame sword ... not sure if it did anything - flame before, flame after ... probably like the guild class requirements, in there but not done.

I'm pretty sure you can't upgrade the sword of flame. No idea about the hammer though; none of my characters have been strong enough to get it from the blacksmith.

Zed: Are you saying you've upgraded a weapon at one of the altars? Can you give an example of what works?

Thorins Hammer can be upgraded at the Altar in the Forbidden Lands and, near Arindale you can upgrade the Crystal of emptiness (Celestial Quest?) to a Crystal of Light at the Altar of Diamond Light (near where the Drakes are).

Sword of Fire works without recharging and, the Barbtipped Runeblade seems not to change when you try charging it (NE of the Mooenbeast Island)

in order to get the hammer, you have to be a demigoth. the person that has the hammer will only give it to other demigoths. canidates are: wylan, zaur, urgoth, and thrall.

There was also the Rune Forge. Haven't been able to find a use for that either. It's my guess that they are there for some unfinished quests that didn't quite make it in. Or possibly some undiscovered secret quest thingy.

Yeah, the Hammer is only available to non-Aliance (i.e. Human, Elves and Dwarves), only the HORDES get it...LOL
