Fuck You Wirts Leg!!!

While wating for slow ass cow maker person I was playing around with wirts leg, it had 2 sockets and it had the grey lettering. I had my inventoy open and I saw the runes Tir and El. I thought it would be funny if I made a steel runeword in it, I did. THE FUCKIN THING DIDNT WORK. How can it not work, it had the grey lettering 2 sockets and sure as I am born Tir+El=Steel.
Why?
Suprisngly the cow level worked even with runes in it.

I don't think runewords work with quest specific items. If you could ever get a socket into the Hellforge Hammer you would not get anything different, just have the runes in it.

It is a quest Item playa.

I'm 75% sure I've seen runeword wirts leg before. I know for a fact you can imbue it though.

you didn't know that? anyways, you shouldn't be mad lol it's only tir and el dude, i mean i remember someone socketing it with FURY runes and it didn't work lol

i throught someone make a fury leg before.. or it didn't work... forgot ah.

I am not mad of loss of tir and el runes, I find them and use them to make steel runewords of 2 skt shit I find on the ground. Its funny to watch people pick up a wep wit a steel runeword over it and then throw it back down.
Who cares if its a quest item, why does it even drop with sockets most of the time.

why does it even drop with sockets most of the time.

To drive the kiddies bonkers, I'm sure...

I think I am going to have my hammer pally use one if I can find 2 resistances gems and a mana steal one.
Why?
Beacuse I have nothing better to do.

I have a fury leg. Its part of my "strange items" collection

btw, i have no idea on why steel runeword didnt work

Really, I want a pic of that plz.

Oh, Steel is for maces/swords/axes. It said not all mace class weapons though, only morning stars, maces, flails, exceptional/elite forms. Wirt's leg is a club. Cannot be created in a c lub i dont think.

That explains it my bad.
