Can you make rune words out of Wirt's Leg? - Label Cut Out Papers on the Cardboard

I remember when I used to play Diablo II that I often find a socketed Wirt's Leg when obtaining it from Tristram. Could you make a rune word out of it? Or was it just socketed sometimes because it was considered a weapon? I'd find it out for myself, but I don't have the game anymore at the moment.



Best Answer

It is no longer possible to make a runeword in Wirt's Leg. Wirt's Leg does drop in socketed versions (1, 2 or 3 sockets possible.) In earlier versions (1.09, perhaps just 1.07) it was possible to make a runeword in Wirts Leg but not in the current version.

What can you do with Wirts Leg?

Looting Wirt will grant you Wirt's Leg, as well as some gold, which is welcomed. This is the only key item that you'll need to enter the Cow Level. Afterwards, all you have to do is place Wirt's Leg inside the Horadric Cube alongside a town scroll. If you have a tome instead, using it will work as well.

Can you reuse Wirts Leg?

And to piggy back on this, you can only have one copy of Wirt's Leg at a time, period. So if you're holding onto one from a different difficulty you need to drop it on the ground, go get the correct one and create the portal, then pick the other leg back up and put it back in your stash.
