What to do with Ber runes...

So I have a hammerdin, a blizz sorc, a javazon, a

Frenzy barb, a smiter, and a summon necro. I've only recently found two

Ber runes, and I'm thinking about making Enigma first (I don't have Enigma). I don't plan on trading away the second

Ber rune; instead, I want to either use it for Chains of Honor or get a third

Ber rune for Infinity for my merc. I could also make a Beast runeword for my summon necro too... Any suggestions?

All points are valid. If you don't care about the experience of making your own runeword, an average Beast roll will be worth a

Sur, both in necro (

Double Axe) with low strength and in

Berserker Axe for barb. A good roll will be worth the

Ber, so might want to buy a 35-str

Axe rather than try getting 35+ yourself.

You can buy a badly rolled Infinity in meh base for

Ber

Lo, too.

Chains of Honor has static abilities, so unless the base is amazing, it will alwas be worth less than

Ber to trade for.
Same goes for Enigma - in non-15ED armors they are worth about

Jah/

Ber +

Lo/

Sur.

It's so addicting anticipating a good roll on making a fresh runeword though lol... and I'm still waiting for a +6 BO CTA...

Anyway, all your points make good sense. Thanks.

Get a Beast for your necro, it is awesome

Enigma is a game changer. Use the second

Ber to trade for

Jah

Get Enigma and make a Trapsin.

Why? Cuz your lineup is clearly missing an assa.

I never played assassin or druid before, even with the original D2 20 years ago... It never appealed to me, and maybe I'll consider it with the new patch.

What Queegon said. I would keep one

Ber and trade the other for lesser runes (

Sur,

Lo, etc.). Use the

Ber +

Lo (or

Sur) to trade for a

Mage Plate Enigma, which you can use on virtually any of your characters as a gamechanger (and trade it among those characters each time you play it). Then use your leftover runes as you wish or save them up.

Chains can be swapped between multiple toons because of the shared stash, it also helps with ubers because you don't have to stack charms like crazy
