Hey guys,
I've always felt that uniques/rares seemed to out match most rune words, whether they are high or low level. For starters, uniques and rares have tendencies to be miles ahead of the base damage (or defense) of the weapons or armor they are. Also, I find that to even get to the better rune words, you have to get some pretty high level runes, like vex, cham, sur, zod, etc. of which are difficult to craft and find. Another downside of rune words is that many are only available for ladder characters, and cannot be upgraded in a manner similar to the player's ability to upgrading rares and uniques. I would like to know if anyone else feels the same way, or can explain to me the appeal of rune words.
Thank you
