Plague is a Diablo 2 Resurrected Runeword created by combining Cham + Shael + Um into 3 socket Sword, Knife or Hand to Hand. It requires at least level 67 to equip. Plague was first released in patch 2.4.
The Plague Runeword is a high level weapon Runeword released in patch 2.4. It is one of the Runewords that were in the original game files, but were disabled. Blizzard had announced 10 new Runewords for patch 1.11, but only 7 made it in the final release (excluding Plague).
The allowed gear initially changed from all weapons to Swords only, this severely limited the usability and was a missed opportunity to give a solid Runeword for Claws and Daggers.
