Rune Words
	By inserting the correct Runes in the correct order into a specific type of item with the correct number of sockets, it is possible to create a Rune Word Item.
	As of the 1.09 patch, Blizzard has said that Rune Words will work both on and off realms, in single or multiplayer games.
	Rune Word items can be personalized using the "Rescue Anya Quest" reward in Act 5.
	You will still receive all of the magical bonuses that were already on each Rune used.
	Each Rune Word has a character level requirement, so make sure your character is at the required level, before you create a Rune Word item and then discover that you can't use it.
	Be careful when using Rune Words formula with Maces. Not all Mace-class weapons can be used. Only Maces, Morning Stars, Flails, and their exceptional and elite versions can be used in Rune Word formulae.
	Be careful when using Rune Words formula with the runes Io and Lo.....make sure you use the right rune.
	BTW, Rune Words will not work with Wirts Leg.
	Some 1.10 Rune Words allow players to use skills from another class.
	The definitions of Item Types for Rune Word items are: Body Armor -- Armor worn on chest Helm -- Armor worn on the head; including Barbarian Helms, Druid Pelts and Circlets Club -- Clubs and exceptional and elite versions Shield -- Any armor used to block; including Necromancer Shrunken Heads and Paladin-specific Shields Hammers -- War Hammer, Maul, Great Mail, and exceptional and elite versions Maces -- Mace, Morning Star, Flail, and exceptional and elite versions Melee Weapons -- Any non-ranged weapon (Sorceress orbs are not considered melee weapons) Missile Weapons -- Bows and crossbows Weapons -- Melee Weapons, Missile Weapons, and Sorceress orbs Scepters -- Scepter, Grand Scepter, War Scepter, and exceptional and elite versions
	When creating a Rune Word item, make sure: the item must be of the correct type, as specified in the recipe the item must have the exact number of sockets as specified in the recipe; no more, no less the item must be non-magical; it CANNOT be a Set Item, a Unique Item, a Rare Item, or a Magic Item (in other words, the item name should be displaying in grey) the runes must be inserted into the item in the correct order, as specified in the recipe make sure you have the latest patch
