Unlocked st, can I throw it away?

[Anthraquinone]

I just ID'ed some light blue item (don't remember what) and this unlocked a Monk rune for me (didn't give the rune, just unlocked it). As the item is of little use for me can I safely throw it away?

Yes.

Those unlock messages mean you then have that available for the lvl 20 PvP chars you may make.

If you don't want the rune, you might check around to see if your guildmates do or see if you can trade it for a rune you do want.

thx for the fast reply

Just to add; use an Expert Salvage Kit to get the rune out of it.

BTW, what to the different colored items mean? I just got a purple and I can't figure out what it means.

[REI ONRYOU]

Gold = rare, Purple = really rare. Or something along those lines.

[Mortshd]

The order goes this way normal, blue, purple then yellow, i.e. yellow/gold is the rarest. It also indicates a better item.

[Miho chi]

colors of the items are as so
white = normal
blue = uncommon
purple = rare
yellow = very rare

items may also have special conditions, such as
-precious
-highly salvagable
-rune
-hilt
-pommel
-etc

essentially if it has any color besides white you should use a identification kit on it. an expert salvage kit can get you the runes and other stuff.

however you can't always get something out of the gold... I picked up some gold boss' armor id'd it said what ever unlocked tried to use the expert salvage on it got only 6 iron ingots
