White Rune Word

White is the rune word  for wands in Diablo II: Lord of Destruction''.

White is popular amongst Bonemancers and other Necromancers, due to the fact that it is possible to find a socketed wand that already has +skills on it for certain abilities. Like Leaf Rune Word, finding a decent base weapon is crucial.

One of the most sought-after would be one with +3 to Bone Spear or Bone Spirit or (for Poisonmancers) Poison Nova or Lower Resist. Wands with +3 to Bone Spear can, with some patience, be purchased from Drognan in Act 2 on difficulty by leaving and entering the city with at least level 20 character, and checking his new wares every time. Larzuk gives two sockets to certain wands (all types except Normal Wands, Yew Wands, and Burnt Wands, which will all receive one socket) after the Siege on Harrogath quest, assuming they are non-magical. Alternatively, the ++Perfect Amethyst Horadric Cube recipe also has a 5/6 chance of getting two sockets on a wand.

A White wand with +3 to Raise Skeleton would be a viable, more readily available alternative to an Arm of King Leoric.
