Mmm ... it does look quite a bit better, now that it's all organized with the runewords in there. Great job! :) Also adding in stuff about ethereal effects in weapons/armors... Skie of Marduke 23:10, 28 July 2011 (UTC)

Reign of the Warlock

SHall we use another colour for RotW runewords? If so, which colour and how to easiest apply? Naturelover (talk) 15:51, 12 February 2026 (EST)

Do you mean in this page, or rather to make a new template and use it instead of Ub (maybe for all RotW features, not only RWs; and if so, then we should have one for "vanilla D2R" as well)? Anyway, if we decide so, the archetypical Warlock's violet seems to be the best choice. Trang Oul (talk) 03:11, 13 February 2026 (EST)

I was originally thinking only about this page.

Agreed, Warlock-violet seems appropriate. :) Naturelover (talk) 14:59, 13 February 2026 (EST)

Speaking of a general indicator of expansion-(or ladder-)only content, we could put an icon next to the item/skill/whatever name, like it's done here with WoW expansions. A small icon is non-intrusive, yet easily recognisable. But first we'd need to have a consistent set of such icons, covering all game modes, for D2 and D2R. :Ь Trang Oul (talk) 17:28, 14 February 2026 (EST)

Based on a YouTube video, Rune Word text still displays the same in Reign of the Warlock so I don't think an alternative to Ub is needed.

Icons would be ideal, but in a pinch you could try creating templates using coloured text or acronyms, like Warlock or RotW, and possibly replace them with icons later. Onderduiker (talk) 12:05, 18 February 2026 (EST)
