Well, I asked a couple of friends who told me you get the runes back after you unsocket a runeword with hel+scroll of tp... So i decided to do that to my fort.. turns out it deletes the rune so now i'm out of a Lo rune.. Probably should have asked here first :/

You've found it out the hard way, but indeed, you don't get em back. I'm sorry for the loss.

You don't get runes/jewels/gems back when you unsocket items...what a pity you got incorrect informations from your friends.

Ya, it sucked lol. Yesterday was my lucky day though. I rushed someone for their nm forge, got a um off that. I was on my trapsin messing around and found a warcries gc which I traded for um. I combined the two and made a mal and quickly traded mal for cham, traded my dracs for mal+lem, traded the mal for sur and then the sur for Lo. If only that would have been my second fort instead of a replacement :/

Yeah that formula destroys all socketed runes and jewels. There should be a formula to destroy the item and keep the runes as well, since runes are much harder to find.
I'm surprised that you were able to trade for such cool runes, I never thought the Mal was worth that much, especially not a Cham or Sur.

Some people trade with duped runes. You would never see a person who found the Sur or Cham him/herself, trade the runes like this. Mal for Cham is a joke, I am sorry Ciba_Blue but you are with 99.99% certainty trading duped runes. (Like most other people, I should say)

Good deals for me.
