Hmm, I did reply to this thread earlier, but it seems my post has gone walkies somewhere in the electronic ether. However, I repeat my previous information for you:
Ok, Blend Runes only drop from certain mobs, they are not on the global loot table. After getting 5 toons on 5 servers levelled up in Alchemy, I got to know where to go. You will find that there are one or two places in every zone that have mobs that specifically drop Blend Runes.
Second, Blend Runes will drop like rain from those certain mobs if you are 2 or 3 levels below them. Therefore, if the Blend Rune dropping mobs are level 18, then you will get significant drops by killing them when you are level 15 or 16. As you level up further, the drops from those level 18 mobs decrease, until at about when you get to level 23 or 24, the drop rate is sparse. This probably is to stop much higher level toons from farming low level mobs.
As you are level 16, I'll tell you the first few mobs you should be farming to get Blend Runes.
The Bats and Spiders in the Human Starter zone, outside the cave to the West of the town. Those bats and spiders are about level 4 or 5, so you will out level them very very quickly. Next, in the Graveyard outside Forsaken Abbey, kill Bats for plenty of Blend Runes. They are level 15 and 16 so start killing them at your level 13 and you will get plenty of Blend Runes. My level 13 Priest / Scout managed to get 117 Blend Runes from these bats when I was level 13 in under one hour and ten minutes. However, you will level up again quite fast on these. I farmed these bats when I was level 13 to 16 and got 184 Blend Runes in total.
Next, at level 16 you should go to the Zhuridon Camp to the North East of the same zone as Forsaken Abbey. There you will find level 18 and level 19 Zhuridon Deciples. Again, just killing these guys got me from level 16 to level 19 in two hours, and I came away with another 208 Blend Runes. Some of the Deciples drop 2 or even 3 at a time. The drop rate reduces quite fast on these guys, when I was level 20, I got maybe one Blend Rune per 5 or 6 kills from the level 18 Deciples.
Ok, that should help you for starters. This post is getting big so I'll leave it to others to give you the other mobs and spawn zones for Blend Runes.
As a side note, I went from level 13 to level 20 in just under 4.5 hours, and got me just under 400 Blend Runes just from killing the mobs stated above. Didn't do a single, solitary quest in that zone, having arrived in Varanas at level 12 from the starter zone. It was nice having a level 20 Priest / 17 Scout when I finally started questing in that zone, and I was doing quite well in Alchemy too.
Good Hunting to you.
