Who uses Pattern

Pattern is a low-level runeword for claws, introduced in Diablo II: Resurrected. It provides a mix of elemental damage (fire, lightning, cold, and poison) and a modest enhanced damage bonus, along with faster block rate and attack rating. This makes it a decent starting weapon for Martial Arts Assassins, but its low damage and limited utility mean it is quickly outclassed by better options. It is ladder-only, so it cannot be made in non-ladder games. The runes are common, making it an easy early-game craft.
