UPDATE: PLEASE READ
11/26/2016 : Well, this is embarrassing. The Unstable Enchant Rune does NOT protect the Enchant Scroll. I am very sorry. I must have gotten confused with how it was worded. My apologies.

The Unstable Rune is just a normal rune that is consumed regardless of fail/success.

For the curious:

Unstable Enchant Rune : Protects items during Enchantment. Prevents the destruction of both items and durability reduction in the event of an Enchantment Failure. Its instability means that the rune will be consumed even if you have succeeded.

Unstable Enhancement Rune : Protects item during Enhancement. Prevents the destruction of an item and durability reduction in the event of an Enhancement Failure. Its instability means that the rune will be consumed even if you have succeeded.

My interpretation : Item will not be destroyed nor will the durability of the item be reduced, however, the Enhancement Rune will be consumed whether you have succeeded or failed the enhancement.

As for the Unstable Enhancement, there isn't much information as to which enhancement parameters it protects. Nonetheless, hope this information will help those confused. :-)

    These should function identically to a regular enhancement or enchantment rune, with the caveat of being one-time use (aka disappears on success where a normal rune does not). It should not function like a premium rune, do not expect it to.

    It will most likely work up to +10, since the unstable rune works the same as a regular enchant rune, but disappears whether it succeeds or fails.

    It is a bug. You wont be able to get the item until tomorrow if you have been keeping up with the attendance event.

    If that is the case, why not give us enhancement runes instead? lol.

    I hope they put the unstable runes in the depot for 1/3rd or half the price of regular runes.
