Every attempt succeeds 80% of the time, at any level; the other 20% take the time and pay no XP. XP/s here already counts that: XP × 80% ÷ time, before gear, upgrades, events and speed bonuses. Gear with a success bonus closes the gap, and a +20% bonus makes every attempt succeed.
A failed attempt still uses its essence. With Keith's Steady Hands (total level 750, 2,000 gems) you keep them and only lose the time.

Loremaster's Codex
A one-time Shop → Permanent purchase for 2,000 gems, available from Runecrafting 40. While you own it, every craft pays the XP of the best rune you have unlocked, so crafting a cheap low-level rune still pays top XP.
Runecraft Altar (permanent upgrade)
A permanent Shop → Permanent upgrade. Each tier adds +1 rune crafted per action — one Rune Essence yields 1 + tier runes of the crafted type, so investing cuts both your mining and crafting time. Bought in order with gold or gems, and stacks on top of the Runecrafting Boost event and Runecrafting Gloves.
| Tier | Altar | Bonus | Req. Runecrafting | Cost (gold) | Cost (gems) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cracked Altar | +1 runes/craft | 10 | 100,000 | 200 |
| 2 | Reinforced Altar | +2 runes/craft | 30 | 500,000 | 500 |
| 3 | Empowered Altar | +3 runes/craft | 50 | 2,000,000 | 1,000 |
| 4 | Resonant Altar | +4 runes/craft | 70 | 8,000,000 | 2,000 |
| 5 | Eternal Altar | +5 runes/craft | 90 | 25,000,000 | 4,000 |
At max tier, one essence yields 6 runes per craft.
