Iron Rune FAQs

What makes Iron Rune a top-tier choice for early-to-mid game builds?

Iron Rune offers reliable scaling across physical damage, defense, and spell amplification. Its versatility makes it ideal for melee, armor-based, and spellcaster builds during campaign progression.

Can I remove a socketed Iron Rune?

No. Once socketed, it cannot be removed. However, it can be overwritten by another rune or soul core.
