Strength

Who uses Strength

Strength is a simple two-socket runeword for melee weapons, available at level 25. It offers a modest enhanced damage bonus and a significant chance of Crushing Blow, which is valuable against high-health enemies. The life steal and mana after kill provide sustain, while the strength and vitality bonuses improve survivability. Although its raw damage is low compared to other weapons at that level, the Crushing Blow makes it a useful early-game option for melee characters, especially when facing bosses. It is cheap to make and can be placed in a fast weapon.
