A Pul rune is a mid rune which can be socketed into equipment in Diablo II: Lord of Destruction. Although Pul runes are somewhat rare, they have no popular rune word uses aside from Heart of the Oak. In ladder games, Pul runes have additional uses, such as upgrading unique weapons to elite versions, and transmuting into Um runes.
Effects[]
| Equipment type | Effects |
|---|---|
| Weapon | +75% Damage To Demons, +100 Attack Rating Against Demons |
| Body armor or helm | +30% Enhanced Defense |
| Shield | +30% Enhanced Defense |
Socketing an item with a Pul rune increases the item's level requirement to 45, unless it was already higher.
