    From the dev:

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Enchantment/Runestone drops

    Regular enchantments and runestones (ones that aren't part of campaigns or events) will no longer drop in normal play. Instead rank 1s of these items can be bought in Protector's Enclave. Due to not needing the matching bonuses anymore and (as will be mentioned a bit more further down this post) we got rid of the requirement on ranks of requiring a second enchantment/runestone to upgrade, it is more straight forward to just get gemstones, which are purely for RP, in loot vs enchantments and runestones that you are just going to convert into RP anyways.

    This also works towards wanting to make the system easier for new players to interact with. Instead of waiting for random drops and trying to figure out which to keep/break down, new players can see all of the regular tier 1s, make their choice, and level it up with the RP they acquire while playing. To go along with this, Tier 1 enchantments have a 100% success rate to become Tier 2, further easing the learning curve of Refinement.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Of course, you can also buy them from AH.

    Where in Protector's Enclave can I buy runestones. I can not find anyone selling rank 1 runestones! Enchantments yes but runes no.

    Yep, talk to the old lady that gave you the ring with the dark enchantment.

    You should just buy from the AD store. Even at the lowest level once you hit the Blacklake district you can do your first random skirmish and that will gain you 6,000+ AD, plenty to buy low level stuff. Your first investment should be bonding runestones.

    You can also get R7s for Trade Bars.
