Holy Thunder

From Diablo 2 Wiki
Revision as of 04:22, 2 April 2010 by 82.41.176.69 (talk) (split runeword content from runeword lists)

Holy Thunder, made from Eth, Ral, Ort, and Tal, which rhymes nicely if you say it out loud. This works in 4-socket scepters, which are not easy to find. Possible in v1.08 and above.

Interesting mods, clearly a Lightning-focused item with huge Lightning Damage, resistance, and even charges of Chain Lightning. The 150% damage to undead is an inherent property of a blunt weapon, and the three +skills are bonuses on this particular scepter, not part of the recipe. This would be a nice weapon switch weapon, for the solid elemental damage. Another odd bit, the +3 to Holy Shock is part of the recipe, but the bonuses to Meditation and Vengeance are random ones that were on the scepter pre-Runic Item and have been preserved.
