How about Prudence in a high defense eth armor? Splendor? Is Edge any good (I'm playing SP but with ladder runewords enabled)? Grief seems very interesting - better than Honor? Insight? Obedience? Spirit? Some of those seem almost suitable for end game, BTW. Of the higher levels but still not end game: Duress is something I'm going to try. Honor - I do have a 5-socket Ancient Axe, is it good in mid-game? Melody? I'm looking more into weapons - have Leaf on my fire/ice level 24 sorceress, but what else? Black? Definitely Holy Thunder if I ever make a Holy Shock pally. Oh, and Lore helms were passed between my characters as they grew up. I very rarely make Ancient's Pledge, usually going for Rhyme, because I don't have many CBF sources. I did make a couple of Smoke armors to pass around. Some of those are level 30+, some are still in their twenties - but I'm looking for something to help them glide through NM and the beginning of Hell, so aiming at levels 37 and up.Īll of my characters are or were wearing Stealth armor at some point - really like that one.

Right now I'm looking for runewords which will help my other characters. If the maximum amount of sockets on the item equals the amount you need, you can also take it to Larzuk, he will add the maximum amount of sockets to the item as a quest reward.Thanks to my level 87 Javazon, I've got quite a few low- to mid-level runes, and several higher ones, including Ist and Gul.

When you find a good base without sockets you can try to add sockets with the Horadric Cube socket recipe.

See the detailed type definition for more info. Note that for Runewords, Scepters, Maces, Hammers, and Clubs are distinct classes, even though the game groups them all under the Mace class. Insight can only be made in Polearms or Staves (missile weapons too in patch 2.4), so it will not work in Spears (which look like Polearms).

The item type must be eligible for the Runeword.

If the item has more sockets, the Runeword will not work. The item needs the have the exact amount of sockets as listed in the recipe.You can not use, magic, rare, unique, set, or crafted items.

Ethereal and superior items can be used to create a Runeword.
