Using runes in this crystal sword(5), can prove dangerous. Not to mention some easy Runewords as well.Ĭrystal swords that are plain text, and non-etheral, are best for the runeword 'Call to Arms'. Four perfect gems of elemental types: Ruby, Saphire, Emerald, and Topaz. For starters - a 4 open socket plain (grey text) crystal sword, etheral or non, can make a nasty elemental sword.
