Who uses Lore
Lore is a helm runeword with a very low level requirement of 27 and only two sockets, making it easy to craft early. It provides +1 to all skills, energy, mana after each kill, lightning resistance, and damage reduction. The modifiers are broadly useful for any character, and the runes are common enough to be found by late Normal difficulty. Despite its simplicity, it remains viable through Hell for its skill bonus and defensive properties. It offers no enhanced defense, so characters seeking physical protection may need other gear, but as a caster helm it is a strong early choice.
