While there are far too many Diablo 2: Resurrected Runewords to detail here, players leveling through the game for the first time will want to seek out a few standouts. Related: Diablo II: Resurrected Faces Server Instability & Missing Characters

Runewords must also be placed in a specific order to spell the desired word, or else the item will simply be a piece of gear with three individual runes. The Runeword must match the exact number of sockets on the gear piece, so a three-part Runeword can only be placed into a three-socket item. Runewords are special combinations of runes that, when placed into a piece of Diablo 2: Resurrected gear in the right order, grant the user additional bonuses. Attaching a Runeword to an item comes with a few caveats: For starters, Runewords can only be used on non-magic, grey-text (Normal, Exceptional, or Elite), socketed gear, and only chest, helms, shields, and (most) weapons can have sockets.
