sorry that I can't upload a photo now .. I put the Runic word in a melee weapon to my follower "bone ax" is legendary but it does not take the attributes of the Runic word it only gives me what the runes give
Thing is if i understood you correctly...you put runes into legendary weap and they do not work on those...only ''clean'' white/superior weapons and armor...
I understand it is a pity that it does not say it anywhere and really these runes cost me to get them
@merko, you should provide more information when asking for help such as telling us what item have you tried to use for your runeword and eventually post a screenshot of it via https://imgur.com You can find more information about runewords and how they work on the wiki https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Runewords You can always farm some gems and jewels and you will get those runes back and more in no time.
Most common runeword mistakes: 1. wrong base 2. wrong rune order 3. wrong rune(s) -Io vs. Lo is the most well-known example I did not understand exactly what was said here (probably wanted to make a runeword for the mercenary), but I am almost 100% sure that (1) applies in this case.
