All Runewords Coming to the Diablo 4 PTR

Blizzard announced the Runeword system today and also detailed all the currently planned ones!

In case you’re not sure how the Runewords system works, you can check out the full details here, but here’s a short summary as well:

  • You pair 2 runes together in one of three item slots: chest, pants and 2-handed weapon.
  • Ritual runes generate resource (Offering) that is then spent by the Invocation rune, which holds the desired effect.
  • Ritual runes generate their resource when you fulfill their specific requirement.
  • Invocation runes have different effects, from other classes’ skills to Aspects and more.
  • You can gain additional Invocation Rune effects when you have more Offering resource than required. This is called overflow.
