# Rune Solving

> Automatic rune detection and solving

Runes spawn periodically in hunting maps and require arrow key input to activate. They grant buffs including 2x EXP. Leaving a rune unsolved curses the map, reducing EXP and drops.

If the **Interact** keybind is set, MANIA will automatically navigate to runes when they appear and attempt to solve them. Both normal and spinning runes will be solved with 100% accuracy under proper operation. If solving fails, check your [capture](/capture) setup.

MANIA solves runes **after the current point finishes**, not after the entire routine. It does not interrupt mid-point for instant solving.

<Note>
  Spinning runes aren't necessarily a problem, but if you're seeing them frequently, it can be an indication that you need to [add variance](/best-practices#adding-variance).
