Another possibility is ''on kill'' proc, that one will work only with poison spells that last over 1 second.
The sword you found is probably meant for melee sorc, can't say how good is coz i never played it.

But the problem doesn't lie with difficulty, but the fact that I have problems getting my gear upgraded.
It's mostly about mid level runewords. Runes seem to drop up to lvl 40. And I am not going to spend all my life just farming billions of lower level runes to cube em into high ones...
I have this problem everytime I lvl up a character. Once I reach lvl 50-70, I am stuck until I get good runes that will boost me well enough so I can continue lvling again.
I dont know... I just feel like average rune lvl in that area is just too low for what I have to fight...
Do you guys ever had problem like this during lvling in that area? How to overcome it if you can't mule high lvl runes? Do you guys recommend any places to try to farm runes on act 1 of terror?
