Who uses Hand of Justice

Hand of Justice is a weapon runeword that grants a Holy Fire aura, adding fire damage to attacks. It provides increased attack speed, high enhanced damage, and ignores target's defense, making it effective for physical fighters. The on-death meteor and on-level-up blaze are situational. It requires level 67 and four sockets. Not ladder-only, so available in single player. Practical note: the Holy Fire aura works well with fire-based builds, but the death effect can be a drawback in hardcore.
