Cheap Diablo II: Resurrected Items
D2R New Runewords 2.5
There is no new runewords in Patch 2.5.
D2R Ladder New Runewords in Patch 2.4
For the first time, players will have the chance to unlock a host of new Rune Words in the Ladder system! These will be exclusive to Ladder like the previous set of Ladder-only Rune Words in the original Diablo II experience. At the end of a Ladder season, players who successfully made these Rune Words will have their Ladder characters be moved into a “non-Ladder” version of the game.
Insight
- Now can also be used with Bows and Crossbows
Infinity
- Can now be used by Spears and Amazon Spears
Obedience
- Can now be used by Spears and Amazon Spears
Pride
- Can now be used by Spears and Amazon Spears
Developer Comments: Insight is a popular Rune Word, and we feel that allowing it on ranged weapons will promote more build possibilities that complement the skill and mercenary changes seen above.

Developer Comments: For new Rune Words, we focused on complementing the skill and mercenary changes seen above, along with giving underused runes more usage. “Plague” and “Pattern” Rune Words previously existed in data but were never enabled, so we made some additional tweaks, and they are finally now available to be used in game.
D2R Ladder Rune Words
For the first time, players will have the chance to unlock a host of new Rune Words in the Ladder system! To be clear, these Rune Words have never existed in the game before, and they will not be accessible in non-Ladder play like the previous set of Ladder-only Rune Words in the original Diablo II experience.
At the end of a Ladder season, players who successfully made these Rune Words will have their Ladder characters be moved into a “non-Ladder” version of the game. Then at the beginning of the next Ladder season, players will make a new Ladder character and start all over again to earn new rewards.
Ladder Only Runewords
Ladder-exclusive runewords will be obtained from the release of Patch 2.4. These ladder only runewords will most likely roll over into the other game modes after the end of the season they are associated with.
In the future, every new season will introduce a few new runewords.
