The Zod rune has a mythical place in
Diablo II
lore. The incredibly rare socketed item, which can make other in-game gear indestructible, has just a 1 in 2,987,183 chance of dropping from the game's highest class of enemy, according to
one calculation
.
To this day, it's not hard to find dedicated players
admitting
online
that they've never seen a legitimate copy of the rune despite years of play (though
duplicated versions made using glitches
can be less rare).
So when
Diablo
streamer and speedrunner
Kano
saw a Zod rune drop
during a livestreamed
Diablo II: Resurrected
run Wednesday
(as
noticed by GamesRadar
), it was something of a legendary moment. And when Kano sold that rune for a relatively unimportant 35,000 in-game gold mere moments later, it was something of a legendary troll.
