Rune Words
By inserting the correct Runes in the correct
order into a specific type of item with the correct
number of sockets, it is possible to create a Rune
Word Item.
As of the 1.09 patch, Blizzard has said that Rune
Words will work both on and off realms, in single
or multiplayer games.
Rune Word items can be personalized using the
"Rescue Anya Quest" reward in Act 5.
You will still receive all of the magical bonuses
that were already on each Rune used.
Each Rune Word has a character level
requirement, so make sure your character is at
the required level, before you create a Rune Word
item and then discover that you can't use it.
Be careful when using Rune Words formula with
Maces. Not all Mace-class weapons can be used.
Only Maces, Morning Stars, Flails, and their
exceptional and elite versions can be used in
Rune Word formulae.
Be careful when using Rune Words formula with
the runes Io and Lo.....make sure you use the right
rune.
BTW, Rune Words will not work with Wirts Leg.
Some 1.10 Rune Words allow players to use skills
from another class.
The definitions of Item Types for Rune Word
items are:

 Body Armor -- Armor worn on chest

 Helm -- Armor worn on the head; including
Barbarian Helms, Druid Pelts and Circlets
  Club -- Clubs and exceptional and elite
versions
 Shield -- Any armor used to block;
including Necromancer Shrunken Heads
and Paladin-specific Shields
 Hammers -- War Hammer, Maul, Great Mail,
and exceptional and elite versions
 Maces -- Mace, Morning Star, Flail, and
exceptional and elite versions
 Melee Weapons -- Any non-ranged weapon
(Sorceress orbs are not considered melee
weapons)
 Missile Weapons -- Bows and crossbows
 Weapons -- Melee Weapons, Missile
Weapons, and Sorceress orbs
 Scepters -- Scepter, Grand Scepter, War
Scepter, and exceptional and elite versions

When creating a Rune Word item, make sure:

 the item must be of the correct type, as

specified in the recipe
 the item must have the exact number of
sockets as specified in the recipe; no more,
no less
 the item must be non-magical; it CANNOT
be a Set Item, a Unique Item, a Rare Item, or
a Magic Item (in other words, the item name
should be displaying in grey)
 the runes must be inserted into the item in
the correct order, as specified in the recipe
 make sure you have the latest patch
