Some implementations include Pikes with some Amazon builds. Sometimes these base items are also extremely difficult to obtain as the base should be a 6 Socketed ethereal weapon. Considering that it requires Zod, this means that the rune word is a perfect choice for base items which are ethereal, because they will become Indestructible. This comes at the cost of requiring a Zod Rune which is arguably, the most rare item in the game. It provides strong melee damage and is possibly achieveing the highest damage output in Diablo 2. It is sometimes used Summoner Necromancers to give the aura to all the minions.īreath of the Dying is one of the most powerful Rune Words in the entire game. It also provides Werebear and Lycanthropy skill to any character using it. Beast is a rune word which provides a low Fanaticism Aura. Holy fire is great fun at low level but I don't think? Good thing you can respec!Unique Items. If I were you though, I'd have a recheck of your current skill distribution - generally i wouldn't run with both zeal and sacrifice, much better to choose one and then put points in a complementary aura. The crushing blow in Black if you eventually get it will sort you out for major damage for a long time, and it scales with monster health. Also, stealth makes it on to just about every character i use early game, insanely easy to get and provides you with so many bonuses other armors for me just don't compare.
