Who uses Myth
Myth is a body armor runeword that requires three sockets and a level of 25. It is clearly designed for Barbarians, granting +2 to Barbarian skill levels, which makes it a budget option for prebuffing warcries before switching to other gear. The runeword also provides a chance to cast Howl and Taunt, along with missile defense, life replenish, and reduced requirements. However, its offensive and defensive stats are otherwise unremarkable, so it is rarely used as end-game armor. The highest rune is Hel, making it relatively inexpensive to craft. It is not ladder-only and can be made in any suitable body armor.
