Who uses Call to Arms

Call to Arms is a weapon runeword that serves as a pre-buff tool rather than a primary weapon. It grants Battle Orders and Battle Command, which significantly boost life, mana, and stamina, and with additional skill gear the bonuses can reach high levels. The damage is respectable but not top-tier, so characters often equip it, use the shouts, then switch to a stronger weapon. Since the skill bonuses apply to any character, it works well as an offhand for nearly any build, though Barbarians receive limited stacking. It requires level 57 and five sockets, and is not ladder-restricted.
