Your runewords, for the most part, all suck. Hard. They'd never ever get made. Why? Here's why:

Melee weapons:
What you're up against:

Breath of the Dying
Grief
Last Wish
Beast (your runeword Berserk is better than this one when looking at effects only)

Missile weapons:
Faith >>> all. No other class would want to use a ranged weapon besides a zon.

Claws:
Actually your runeword Shadow is good. Maybe treachery in a claw as well. BTW, treachery is already a RW of an assassin armor.

Armor:
Fortitude, Enigma, and possibly Chains of Honor. Solar Flare has fortitude outdamaged slightly, but when factoring in resists and total defensive power, it's coming up short.

Shields:
Phoenix for damage, spirit for casters, and sanctuary otherwise (KoKoMal...gives max block and 65% resist all among other things). None of your RWs come close, once again.

So in other words, you wasted all that effort for nothing. Good day to you.

More uniques, such as unique normal and exceptional class-specific items. More sets, and some sets that are comparable to uniques/runewords.
More useful items for low-level characters would also be cool, rather than this all ending up with more variety for level 99s and nobody else

Make the IAS 85 or it's useless for Shifters considering the IAS Breakpoint
They'll still use Grief or a shael'd Phase Blade
Better yet, touch the 110 Break point with a Runeword and make it (Druid Only)

Note:
All current Rune words have a maximum of 7 effects, in addition to the runes' given mod. Crescent Moon, Delirium and Enigma, for example, all have a total of 10 mods. 3 from their runes, and 7 more. I doubt Blizzard intends to change that now....

I don't like the idea of giving other classes the ability to use cloak of shadows.

muy overpowas las weas po gringuito

un salu2 al kkbato from Chile ;)

What the hell is this heap of %@#%? You just IMAGINE several runewords ?

You had a lot of time, buddy.

I tried making your new version 1.13 rune words on US WEST Ladder and it appears, its a waste of runes, the words don't work. Why? I tried to make your Source of Life on a 4 OS Superior Husk, it was a was of a vex and mal. So whats the real deal on these runeowords? A little help understanding if they are real words would be great. Or are these just suggestions you've made.

Thanks
