    I thought I knew all runeword's abbreviations (CoH, CTA, Hoto, forti, obi, LW, BotD etc.), but last week I came across one that is unfamiliar to me: TotA (Thunder of the Ancients).
    I usually do some research before asking something, but google searches for "TotA runeword" gave me no results... so there are only 3 possible explanations I can think of:
    1) TotA is one of the remaining hidden runewords that have been yet to be discovered.
    2) Blizzard released a new patch that has this new runeword.
    3) April Fool's Day :)

    I can't find the link to the screenshot, but I will search for it tonight and post it. From what I recall the runeword was for 3 socket weapons (vex + shael + um - I'm not sure about the order of the runes and if it was shael or something else) and had IAS, dmg red, cb, ow, + to all sk, + to mana, some rez and ignore target's def.

    I've never heard of this, but I think it may be a mod on a different server.

    where did you "come across" this rw?
    also what? tota then hoz? you misstyped?
    I can ensure you though that there are no "hidden" runewords nor did blizz release more.

    That's because there are no hidden runewords in this game and TotA runeword doesn't exist.
    HoZ is the short name for Herald of Zakarum.

    Indeed, the hint was pretty obvious when he said "there are only 3 possible explanations I can think of", yet he only posted 1) and 2) at first ... but you never know.
