split alphabetical list of all runewords and added list of runewords by rank
{{Item navbox|{{Runes}}}}{{runewords}}'''Runewords''' are a way in Diablo II to use a combination of [[rune]]s in an [[item]] to give it exceptional attributes, beyond what the runes themselves accomplish.
==The Right Runes==
Look at the [[rune list]] for information on how to get the right runes. For [[weapon]]s you'll want to find the best type of weapon possible, since that's what the bonus damage is based on. Same with [[Armor]] if you are after [[Defense]] and [[shield]]s for blocking percentage. If defense isn't important, look for an item that looks good, has low requirements, and for armor and shields, is not going to slow your running speed.
Note: The Runes may fill the sockets in linear order automatically, i.e. in the order 1, 2, 3 . . . For example, trying to place the third Rune of a RuneWord into the third socket while socket 1 and 2 are empty may result in the Rune filling socket 1, contrary to intentions. As mentioned elsewhere, it is possible to remove an item from a socket, but the item is destroyed in the process.
