A Lo rune is a high rune which can be socketed into equipment in Diablo II: Lord of Destruction. Although Lo is not the rarest rune, it is among the most valuable in ladder play, due to its use in popular ladder-only rune words such as Fortitude and Grief.
Effects
| Equipment type | Effects |
|---|---|
| Weapon | +20% Deadly Strike |
| Body armor or helm | 5% To Maximum Lightning Resist |
| Shield | 5% To Maximum Lightning Resist |
Socketing an item with a Lo rune increases the item's level requirement to 59, unless it was already higher.
