Cornholio was actually adjusted *downwards* a bit, I realised I hadn't taken the rune values themselves into account so I revised it to be a little less powerful. "Lucky Bastard" requires a Zod, a Vex, a Jah and an Ohm so I don't think there'll be too many of those ;) LOL "Fortune's Favour" uses a Lem, Ist and Lem in 3-socket hats and is a MF-focused runeword. The vitality is so it doesn't render chars all but defenceless when wearing one ;) And the "Truly Cheesy Armour" is the only Gemstone unique with a predefined level requirement: 99. ;) > Thanks again for the good work. :-) :)
