In legacy versions of the game, this rune word's chance to cast Firestorm on hit used to cause severe lag in multiplayer games, as well as noticeable animation locks and attack interruptions due to a bug causing on-striking skills to trigger their respective effect's casting delays. Thanks to its unusually large amount of enhanced damage if made into a shield, Phoenix is (by a considerable margin) the most damaging shield for most characters specializing in physical damage to use. The -28% fire resist is also useful for characters who specialize in fire damage. Phoenix is the only way to get enhanced damage on a shield (aside from +x% enhanced damage jewels), and the Redemption aura is very helpful in keeping the character alive. It’s more focused on enigma vs fort but I mention lawbringer as well.1.10–current Phoenix is the rune word ' Vex Vex Lo Jah' for weapons or off-hand armor in Diablo II: Lord of Destruction. Sadly, Spirit Rune Word completely outclasses it in that aspect, while the Lidless Wall is also slightly better. Splendor seems to be intended for spellcaster use. If you creep through my comment history I have a deep detailed analysis on enigma/lawbringer/grief for frenzy barbs. Splendor is the rune word EthLum for off-hand armor in Diablo II: Lord of Destruction. Possible in 1.11 and 1.10 Runeword Stats Comments Active In v1.11+ v1.10 v1.09 Crescent Moon. We aim to maintain the Lord of Destruction experience and provide consistent ladder resets while improving on the game as if development never ceased. Yeah physical damage on lawbringer sucks but you don’t need any physical damage on it as long as you have a decently weapon like oath and the elemental damage on lawbringer is a nice bit of added damage. Crescent Moon From Shael + Um + Tir in Axes, Polearms & Swords only. Project Diablo 2 A mod for and by passionate Diablo 2 fans. Reduces the damage you take as well as drop physical res of non undead and non physical immunes by 50%, aka doubling your raw physical damage. It means that you double your damage to doom knights, ghosts, pretty much anything that is hard for physical characters to kill.ĭecrepify is also amazing for bosses and champions/elites. Sanctuary aura makes you ignore physical res of undead monsters, which they all have 50% (somebody check me on this, it might be 25%) physical resistance. It is the best defensive option for a frenzy barb other than last wish (and even then lawbringer is still a damn good option).
