Shael Rune

A Shael Rune is a low tier rune that can be socketed into armor and weapons in Diablo2: Lord of Destruction and Diablo 2 Resurrected.

A Shael Rune requires level 29 to use. When you socket an item with a Shael Rune, you increase the level requirement to level 29, unless it was already higher.

Shael Runes are most useful for meeting important breakpoints like Increased Attack Speed, Faster Hit Recovery, and Faster Block Rate.
