However, combining specific Runes in a particular order creates a Runeword, which packs on a number of other features, fundamentally changing the quality of the gear item. These feature the best Runewords for getting a head start on leveling!Runes all have great extra properties that you can add to socketed gear. Blizzard will not restore gear or Runes because you made a mistake!If you need more information about individual Runes, including how to acquire them, upgrade them, remove them, and farm them, please see our separate guide:We also have a guide for the best Leveling Runewords under level 30. There's no going back once you've put the Runes in, there's no removing them without destroying all your Runes.
Magic, Magic Rare, Set, or Unique gear does not work with Runewords, even if it has the correct number of sockets. Classic players who prefer to play without the LoD expansion cannot use Runewords.Runewords only work in non-Magic socketed gear. These will be detailed above the tables of Runewords for this gear type.Players must have the LoD expansion to use Runewords.
It gets more complicated when it calls for a specific weapon type. A Runeword for a weapon will not work as a Runeword for a piece of armor. The only exception to this is the item Wirt's Leg, which is not magical and often has sockets, but does not work with Runewords.Runewords must match the gear type. Only grey-text gear items with sockets can accept Runewords ( Normal, Exceptional, Elite in any quality including Ethereal).
Inserting a shorter runeword into a gear item with a larger number of sockets doesn't create a Runeword. A 3-word Runeword only works in an item with 3 sockets. Runewords only go into the same number of sockets to work - ie. There are a couple Runewords such as Spirit and Phoenix that are both Shield and Weapon runewords - they use the same runes, but have slightly different end properties.Runewords come in varying lengths from 2-6 Runes, and must match the number of sockets exactly.
While automatically dropping runes into the correct slots is a nice failsafe to make sure you don't drop the runes into the wrong socket by accident, it means it's crucial to insert them in the exact order of the word.A Runeword may raise the required cLvL (character level) of a piece of gear. If you drop Ber (the last rune) in first, it will still drop into the first socket by default, ruining your Runeword. The interface will drop them into the correct sockets. For example, if you are trying to make JahIthBer, you must drop Jah in first, then Ith, then Ber. Double check to make sure you have the correct runes and that you insert them in the exact order they appear. This prevents players from using multiple short Runewords on a single piece, or adding something like a Hel rune to reduce the item requirements.Runewords must be inserted in perfect order.
If you're trying to find socketed gear, you want to lowest possible Magic Find score.Only Chest Armor, Helms, Shields, and most Weapons can be socketed. This is one case where Magic Find works against you. Finding the correct gear type with the exact number of sockets for the Runeword you want is the hard part. While it's unlikely that you will have Runes that are much higher level than your character, it's possible to use a Runeword that's too high for your character's level and inadvertently make that piece of gear unusable for a time.Non-magic socketed gear is not hard to find - normal farming will do it. JahIthBer has a cLvl of 65, because its highest level rune, Jah (#31) has a base cLvl of 65, even though the lowest rune, Ith (#6), is clvl 15.
However, you cannot add more sockets to an item that already has at least 1 socket this recipe only works on items that have no sockets. Higher ilvl items are more likely to have more sockets.For more information about Item Rarity, including tips on farming for socketed gear, please see our guide:Item Rarity Explained in Diablo II: ResurrectedYou can also add sockets to non-magic gear using various Horadric Cube recipes. The number of sockets an item will usually have is in direct relation to its iLvl (item level).

It will not reduce the required cLvl if placed in gear with a higher cLvl requirement.All tooltips are text-searchable and listed in order of minimum level.There are 20 Chest Armor Runewords. The lower the iLevel, the fewer sockets it will likely have.For more information about Horadric Cube recipes, please see our guide:There are four charts for each type of gear that can accept Runewords: Chest Armor, Head Armor, Shields, and Weapons.The Required Level refers to the minimum required cLvl level of the highest level rune in the Runeword. For example, a small Weapon such as a Wand may only 2 maximum sockets, while a larger weapon such as a Polearm may have up to 6.
