Lords of the Fallen

Ruq

Strength rune — fits an S socket, or any meta socket, which takes a rune of any type. Does one thing in a weapon and something else in a shield.

A shield, not armor. No armor piece in this game has a rune socket; all 35 shields do — and the game's own description for this rune says "Shield function".
