Peace: Armor Rune Word - Diablo 2

Peace Rune Word is one of the lowest level Class specific Rune Words in the game coming in at level 29 for Amazons. The +2 to Amazon Skill Levels and +20 Faster Hit Recover (FHR) are what most people get this armor for but the chance to cast on striking Level 15 Valkyrie is a hidden gem and makes this armor much better than it originally appears to be.

Keep in mind that all Rune Words you create will retain any pre-existing bonuses found on the item. If you find a 'Superior' piece of armor with +Enhanced Defense, a Superior Weapon with +Enhanced Damage or a Helm/Weapon that has +Skill bonuses for a certain class, all of these will remain on the final Rune Word that is created. It's also possible to 'ebug' a piece of Ethereal Armor that you find which will increase the Defense bonuses by 50%, check out my Ebugging Guide for more information.

 

Farming High Runes: Out of all locations in the game one stands above the rest for farming specifically High Runes, the Countess during Act 1. The Countess has a guaranteed chance to always drop a High Rune and can even drop more than one. Check out my The Countess Farming Guide for more information.
