Who uses Lawbringer
Lawbringer is a runeword for swords, hammers, and scepters, suited to melee characters who need utility. It casts Decrepify on striking, which slows and reduces enemy damage, and provides a Sanctuary aura that knocks back undead and ignores their physical resistance. The fire and cold damage add elemental coverage, while life steal helps sustain. The 'Slain Monsters Rest in Peace' prevents corpses from being reanimated. Available at level 43 with three sockets, it is a solid choice for melee builds facing undead-heavy areas. It is not ladder-restricted, so it can be made in any league.
