Diablo 2 Resurrected Runeword Changes
Runeword Changes
Runewords are great, but many are limited because of the base item they can be made in. I would open up the idea of having more runewords available for different types of weapons, especially the more expensive runewords. I would also do a lot of touch ups on lesser used runewords, and give more variety to a few of the very popular runewords. Only changes are listed here.
• Original Runeword Changes
Lots of the original runewords are great, and fun for early game. Only a handful really need to be upgraded.
• Black can be made in any 3 Socket Weapon.
Io takes level 35, and this is way under powered for what you get. This seems like a decent mid game bow, but is limited by what it could be made in.
+3 To Cloak of Shadows [Added]
+160-200% Enhanced Damage [Increased from 120%]
25-35% Increased Attack Speed (varies) [Increased from 15%]
Magic Damage Reduced By 4-8 (varies) [Increased from 2]
• Fury can be made in any 3 Socket Weapons.
Fury is an interesting option for Assassins, otherwise doesn't see use. Giving it some variability in ED, and add +5 to Fury would give it some use for Wolf howl barbs, and Fury Druids.
+240-320% Enhanced Damage (varies) [Increased from 209%]
+3-6 To Frenzy [Remove Barbarian only (meaning assassin can use it with 2 claws)]
+3-6 To Fury [Added]
• Holy Thunder can be made in 4 Socket Swords.
Good early game Scepter for a paladin, just made slight changes to see more use.
+60-100% Enhanced Damage (varies) [Increased from 60%]
12% Chance To Cast Level 7 Chain Lightning On Striking [Changed from 60 Charges]
• Honor
Good early game weapon if you can find a base, gave it a slightly better use case with a defensive aura, and added some variability in the rolls.
Level 3-5 Defiance Aura When Equipped (varies) [Added]
+150-200% Enhanced Damage (varies) [Increased from 160%]
Replenish Life +8-16 (varies) [Changed from 10]
• King's Grace
Decent early game weapon, just made slight changes to see more use.
+130-180% Enhanced Damage (varies) [Increased from 100%]
+120% Damage To Demons [Increased from 100%]
+120% Damage To Undead [Increased from 50%]
• Lion Heart
Decent mid game armor if you can find a base, gave it a slightly better use case with a mediation aura, did a slight rework on this armors stats.
Level 11-18 Meditation Aura When Equipped (varies) [Added]
+120% Enhanced Damage [Increased from 20%]
+10% Increased Run/Walk [Added]
+40-60 To Life [Changed from 50]
+15-25 To All Attributes [Added]
+25 To Strength [Removed]
+10 To Energy [Removed]
+20 To Vitality [Removed]
+15 To Dexterity [Removed]
• Melody
Under powered mid game runeword, just needs slight stat increase and variables.
+160-200% Enhanced Damage (varies) [Increased from 50%]
+10-20 To Dexterity (varies) [Increased from 10]
• Silence
Silence is a runeword that gives a very unusual set of stats. Giving an insane amount of resistance with no variability just seems weird.
+260-340% Enhanced Damage (varies) [Increased from 200%]
+20-30% Increased Attack Speed (varies) [Increased from 20%]
All Resistances +45-75 [Changed from 75]
• Steel can be made in any 2 socket Weapon.
Early game needs more runewords like this, but claws could also benefit from it being in any weapon.
• Strength
Added some variability in rolls.
+35-75% Enhanced Damage (varies) [Increased from 35%]
+15-25 To Strength [Changed from 20]
• Venom
Venom is in a weird place. Its not good. I think giving it some flat damage and more poison damage that applies faster is what would make this a useable runeword.
Damage +80-120 (varies) [Added]
+10-15 To Poison Explosion (varies) [Changed from 27 Charges]
11% Chance To Cast Level 13 Poison Nova On Striking [Changed from Level 13 Poison Nova (11 charges)]
+333 Poison Damage Over 3 seconds [Changed from 273 over 6 seconds]

+333 Poison Damage Over 3 seconds [Changed from 273 over 6 seconds]
• 1.10 Runeword Changes
This set of runewords changed the way we play Diablo 2. With the release of Enigma, Call to arms, Grief, Spirit, Insight, Infinity, and more the game fundamentally changed. I think they've been out long enough that they are a part of Diablo 2, and shouldn't be nerfed. I would work on a handful of the other runewords that could use slight tweaks or even major reworks to become much more viable and create new builds.
• Beast can be made in any 5 Socket Melee Weapons.
Beast is awesome but needs minor updates to really scale with other late game runewords. Being able to be made in any 5 socket melee weapon gives Sword barbs (and act 5 Mercenary's) a great offhand weapon. Giving +more skills to Werebear and Lycanthropy gives much longer transform time, and allows people to have more variety to fun bear builds.
Level 9-15 Fanaticism Aura When Equipped (varies) [Increased from 9]
+6 To Werebear [Increased from 3]
+6 To Lycanthropy [Increased from 3]
• Brand
Brand cost is insane for its value. Its a fun idea, but has almost no use case. Giving it Resist Lightning aura makes it viable for an Act 1 mercenary.
+25% Increased Attack Speed [Added]
+25% Increased Run/Walk [Added]
Level 9-13 Resist Lightning Aura When Equipped (varies) [Added]
• Chains of Honor
Great runeword, I would just add some variability in the rolls.
All Resistances +55-65 [Changed from 65]
+60-90% Enhanced Defense [Changed from 70%]
• Chaos
Anyone who uses this claw loves it. But it could use a minor increase in stats to match other runeword claws.
+8-15% To Poison Skill Damage (varies) [Added]
+3-6 To Whirlwind [Increased from 1]
• Crescent Moon can be made in any 3 Socket Melee Weapon. [Including claws]
Very cool runeword that would see a lot more use if it could be made in claws.
+220-280% Enhanced Damage (varies) [Increased from 180-220%]
• Death
Good overall but having charges on an ethereal item sucks.
+18-22 Blood Golem [Changed from 15 Charges]
• Delirium
Fun runeword, I would just add some variability in the rolls.
+240-270 Defense [Changed from 261]
• Destruction can be made in any 5 Socket Weapons.
Very expensive runeword. Allowing it to be made in any 5 socket weapon and giving it a slight boost in stats makes it more worth its cost.
+350-400% Enhanced Damage (varies) [Increased from 350%]
Adds 300-380 Magic Damage [Increased from 100-180]
+10-25 To Dexterity (varies) [Increased from 10]
+30% Increased Attack Speed [Added]
• Doom can be made in any 5 Socket Melee Weapons.
Doom is fantastic, besides that its so limited by base. Allowing it to be made in any 5 socket melee weapon would give it some much needed versatility.
• Eternity
Out scaled by all runewords at its cost, and having charges on an ethereal item sucks.
+310-380% Enhanced Damage (varies) [Increased from 260-310%]
7-15% Life Stolen Per Hit (varies) [Increased from 7%]
+8-12 To Revive (varies) [Changed from 88 Charges]
• Famine can be made in any 4 Socket Weapons.
Great idea for a Runeword, made to bypass immunity's, but it doesn't have enough damage to deal with anything in Hell Difficulty.
15% Chance To Cast Level 7 Lower Resist On Striking [Added]
Adds 380-450 Magic Damage [Increased from 180-200]
• Harmony can be made in any 4 Socket Weapon.
Harmony is an interesting runeword, allowing it to be made in any weapon would see its usefulness skyrocket.
• Heart Of The Oak can be made in 4 Socket Swords.
Give's act 3 mercenary's the ability to use this amazing caster weapon.
• Ice can be made in 4 Socket Staves, Spears & Polearms.
Ice is another very interesting runeword, allowing it to be made in more bases weapon would open up a lot of new and unusually use cases for it.
• Infinity can be made in 4 socket Missile Weapons.
Conviction OP. The main reason act 2 mercenary's are so popular is because they can use this item, giving it more bases just seems like a must for diversity.
• Kingslayer
Kingslayer is so close to being a great runeword. The +1 to vengeance is basically useless, so improve that and add a bit more stats.
+3-8 To Vengeance [Increased from 1]
+250-320% Enhanced Damage (varies) [Increased from 230-270%]
+10-25 To Strength (varies) [Increased from 10]
• Last Wish can be made in any 6 Socket Weapons.
The most expensive runeword in the game, Last wish is a fitting name. I would simply improve it because of its extreme costs. - If you can make this, you can buy anything else in the game.
+350-420% Enhanced Damage (varies) [Increased from 330-375%]
+20-30% Increased Attack Speed [Added]
Slain Monsters Rest In Peace [Added]
• Lawbringer can be made in any 3 socket Melee Weapon. [Including claws]
Cool runeword that would see a lot more use if it could be made in claws.
• Oath can be made in any 4 socket Melee Weapon.
Great runeword but having charges on an ethereal item sucks.
+10-15 To Heart Of Wolverine (varies) [Changed from 20 Charges]
+8-17 To Iron Golem (varies) [Changed from 14 Charges]
• Obedience can be made in 5 socket Missile Weapon.
Obedience would make a very fun mid-late game bow, along with allowing more 5 socket missile weapon runewords.
• Passion
Another very fun runeword, I would just add some variability in the skill rolls, with an increase in damage.
+210-260% Enhanced Damage (varies) [Increased from 160-210%]
+3-6 To Berserk (varies) [Increased from +1]
+3-6 To Zeal (varies) [Increased from +1]
• Prudence
A bit of a weird runeword, rarely sees play because of the Mal rune it takes. Added a little bit of stats to make it stand out a little more.
+25% Increased Run/Walk [Added]
Cannot Be Frozen [Added]
Damage Reduced by 11 [Increased from 3]
Magic Damage Reduced by 27 [Increased from 17]
• Rift can be made in any 4 Socket Weapons.
Such an unusual use case, but not a bad runeword. Could use something to make it stand out.
-15-25% To Enemy Cold Resistance [Added]
-15-25% To Enemy Fire Resistance [Added]
• Voice Of Reason can be made in any 4 socket Weapon.
Voice Of Reason is a very unusual runeword, it has virtually no use case. I would give it a Resist Cold aura, and add a few additional boosts to any caster build.
+1 To All Skills [Added]
+25% Faster Cast Rate [Added]
Level 4-8 Resist Cold Aura When Equipped (varies) [Added]
• Wind can be made in any 2 socket Weapon.
Wind is by far the worst runewords that uses a Sur rune. Giving it +Hurricane would see some interesting usability for wands, orbs, or even bows.
Cannot Be Frozen [Added]
+25% Faster Cast Rate [Added]
+160-220% Enhanced Damage (varies) [Increased from 120-160%]
25% Chance To Cast Level 9 Tornado On Striking [Increased from 10%]
+3-6 To Hurricane [Changed from Level 13 Twister (127 charges)]
• Wrath
Wrath is weird because it has the chance to have 2 different curses cast on striking. I would switch that around a little bit, and make it fire explosive arrows fitting for the name.
30% Chance To Cast Level 25 Fist Of The Heavens When Struck [Changed from level 1 Decrepify on striking]
+25% Increased Attack Speed [Added]
Fires Explosive Arrows or Bolts [Added]

• 1.11 Runeword Changes
These runewords are all mid tier at best. And none are the best for any build. I think what could improve them all quite a bit is run speed and +1 to a random class skill, and a few random attribute points. This would also make them a little bit more fun to build, because you never really know what skill you could get.

2.6 Runeword Changes
Its weird that they added several runewords that have low use case, and one that has an aura with similar cost. Just adjusted the other helms to match Cure. Mosaic is way overpowered.
• Bulwark
Level 1 Resist Defiance When Equipped [Added]
• Ground
Level 1 Resist Lightning Aura When Equipped [Added]
• Hearth
Level 1 Resist Cold Aura When Equipped [Added]
• Mosaic Can only triggers the last charge up skill used.
This runeword absolutely breaks Martial Arts assassins, breaks balance in PVP, and breaks lots of peoples graphics cards. Something has to be done to it, and I went with a route that felt like it didn't remove the play style, but removed the complete overpowered ability to use every charge ability in the game an unlimited amount of times without having to charge them.Also changing it to 100% means assassins wont have to use 2 claws to benefit from its unique ability, leaving a second slot open for variety of build.
+100% chance for finishing moves to not consume charges on LAST charge up skill only. [Changed]
• Temper
Level 1 Resist Fire Aura When Equipped [Added]

New Runewords
My main issue with runewords is that a couple white items are fantastic, but many bases are unused for runewords. I would like to see more runewords use a variation of white items, so more people would be searching for, say white wands sorc orbs, 2 or 4 socket armor, 2 socket helms, and even ethereal variations of white items we would normally not even pick up. I'd also like to see runewords add a few lesser used skills for different classes.
