The runes are kind of the easiest part, sometimes it can be annoying. The first thing we'll talk about is how to get the runes, there's an incredibly easy way to get all of them, you could actually get the Ral, Tir, Tal from normal Countess, but you can't get a Sol from normal Countess, you could actually run Nightmare Countess and even get the Sol rune, you could get all these runes from running the Hell Countess as well. How to get these specific runes to make Insight? It's most notable for its meditation aura and a large amount of enhanced damage for a runeword that has such low of Diablo 2 Resurrected runes, in order to make this runeword, you just need a Ral, Tir, Tal, and Sol, super low runes for such a powerful runeword and to put these runes into a four socketed Polearm, do not try to make an Insight in a Spear. What items do you need for farming Insight? CAs have the best average damage and the str/dex requirement make it easier for a lvl 70ish merc to use it.īut I believe (did not make all calculations to check if true) the better one for a lvl 80ish merc would be a Giant Thresher maybe with an Andy's mask socketed with a 15ias/Xfireres it would hit the fastest bp, but not sure, may need ias from the armour also.Level 12-17 Meditation Aura When Equipped (varies) +35% Faster Cast Rate +200-260% Enhanced Damage (varies) +9 To Minimum Damage 180-250% Bonus to Attack Rating (varies) Adds 5-30 Fire Damage +75 Poison Damage Over 5 Seconds +1-6 To Critical Strike (varies) +5 To All Attributes +2 To Mana After Each Kill 23% Better Chance of Getting Magic Items I believe CVs are popular because they offer good damage and you get 4 sockets from Larzuk but the str req is very high. Turned out it wasn't too bad, merc havent died yet in NM cows or baal when topped with eth duriel shell and tal's death mask. Recently while NM cowing with my newb light sorc, I came across a sup grim scythe and decided get a act 2 merc to use it since no one was offering for it. I've always seen pub games trading Colossus Voulges (CV) and Cryptic Axes (CA), but realised that the strength requirement ends up screwing up plans when gearing up mercs.

Considering Insight being one of the more popular rune words for caster-supporting mercs, what's considered a good polearm for it? good being a fair amount of dmg, attack speed and not too high requirements?
