Holy Thunder

From Diablo 2 Wiki
Revision as of 02:18, 4 April 2010 by 82.41.176.69 (talk)

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.
