One of the things that I really liked about runewords in D2 was that the combination of specific runes created runewords that gave really game breaking mechanics to it.
As it stands now you just combine any old ritual and invocation to solve a problem you may have (CDR, mobility, etc) which is fine and good, but kinda… meh?
I think there could be an interesting way to create Runewords using four specific runes, in a specific order across two pieces of specific gear.
EG You’ve got the runes A, B, C, & D. In order to get a new power (in addition to all their base powers) along the lines of something like Artillery on lucky hit or something you need B&C in a helm, and A&D in a weapon otherwise you won’t get the specific power.
I think as they are being introduced now they’re… fine… but to be honest I don’t want them to feel ‘fine’ I want them to feel amazing.
