Melody Runeword
Melody is a Diablo 2 Resurrected Runeword created by combining Shael + Ko + Nef into a 3 socket missile weapon. It requires at least level 39 to equip. Melody was first released in patch original.
Even though Melody doesn't add much enhanced damage, it does give +3 to Bow and Crossbow Skills, which can be increased to +6 when made in an Amazon bow with auto mods. For the low rune requirements, it is a great budget option for starting Bowazons.
Another overlooked mod on this Runeword is Knockback, as a ranged based character you actually want to knock enemies away from you, so you have to spend less time kiting.
