Found a Gnarled Staff with two sockets and put the runes Tir and Ral in, respectively, and the item did not update to the correct Runeword “Leaf”. I now have a ‘Mechanic’s Gnarled Staff’.
I have seen a handful of other posts showing runewords not working, is this a common bug? I am afraid to attempt it again…
Not a bug, it was mechanic’s from the beginning. It’s a magical affix that gives sockets, therefore runewords will never work in those. The item has to have gray name for a runeword to work. If it’s blue - it’s not going to work.
Didn’t know that one… thank you for the info. I thought it just needed sockets.
