Death runeword
Death is a Diablo 2 Resurrected runeword created by combining hel + el + vex + ort + gul into a 5 socket sword or axe. It requires at least level 55 to equip.
The Death runeword is similar to Breath of the Dying, in a sense that it is also Indestructible and gives a huge Damage boost. On top of this, it provides a whopping 50% Chance of Crushing Blow and Deadly Strike.
On average, it will provide more damage than BotD, but for a lower cost. It does lack the dual leach and Increased Attack Speed, and can't be made in a Polearm, so it's not suitable for a Mercenary.
