on the other hand there are 95 fighter powers at level 3, the fighter has also 2 subclasses (slayer and knight) and a choice of 8 class feature options
so by 3rd level a fighter will get more choices then a runepriest in its whole career
please give support camon mearls, you helped write PHB3 support your babies!!!!!
I would love to see more support for all the classes mentioned. I will only see it if it is not on DDI though so I doubt I ever will.
The seeker is a primal class, so it may get support in the upcoming Feywild book.

That seems unlikely: current design philosophy revolves around subclasses of the "classic" classes, wizard, ranger, druid, fighter, so on and so forth. We may well see more builds for rangers, even builds for rangers very much like the seeker, with much stronger primal flavor.
The best bet for more seeker support IMO is for it to be reclassified as a subclass of ranger. Similarly, the runepriest would become a subclass of priest and the artificer a subclass of wizard. This would give them retroactive support, making many feats, powers, and paragon paths previously unavailable to them fair game.

No disrespect intended, but I sincerely hope that this doesn't happen. Better, by far, for them to instead receive the support given to full classes.

also no disrespect but this would cause alot of compatability issues and power issues, the wizard already sports the most at wills in the game, more can be an issue and mixing things that were not made to work together can also cause overall more harm then intended.

I agree undead just leave them the way they are and give them the support the classes need/deserve.
On the other hand, Artificers and Runepriests DO NOT WANT THIS. They're way too distinct from the suggested classes they'd be fused into. Just because Priest is in the name of Runepriest doesn't make it a Cleric. It's more of a Warrior-Archivist, and could actually do with a second subclass that is an true Archivist. Runepriests need way more support, in terms of power choice and build choice, mainly.
Similarly Artificers are very different from Wizards. No reason to fuse the two, especially when Wizards have some of the most builds of any class already. Artificers just need more support, in my opinion. We don't need new builds, really, just more power choices, and an update to certain powers that don't function properly anymore.
Good Luck!!!
Actually, I think the best thing that could happen for Seekers would be to fuse them into the Ranger class as a subclass.
The best thing that could happen for Seekers would be Primal Power 2.

I would LOVE to see a Primal Power 2. (and a divine power 2, arcane power 2, psionic power 2...)

I agree with the seeker merging into ranger as a subclass. it would assist his capability by granting him access to the ranger pool.
This is perhaps a little late, but go on and play a Runepriest. They are a solid leader class. I recommend a Minotaur Runepriest.
Bear in mind that the Protection / Destruction rune choice mechanic gives the Runepriest great round-to-round flexibility, more so than any other class. Offsetting that is the fact that attack powers are generally evenly split between the two builds, limiting choice even further, and the unfortunate fact that Runepriest At-Wills don't scale at 21st.
There has been a little bit of stuff published for the Runepriest, but it's pretty much exclusively been DM material. Schwalb wrote and was excoriated for a flavourfully written article that added four paragon-tier rare items usable only by Runepriests, and more recently the adventure Runecutter's Ruin has a NPC Runepriest doing some cool things (which I doubt any PC Runepriest would be allowed to do).
Finally, Goliath Runepriests are awesome and win.
