Yup, been upgrading the runes up to Thul (I've found a good number of El to Ort runes so I could upgrade to Thul rune). Am playing 1.09 Single Player so can't upgrade to Zod (will need a lot of Ort runes...).
Hellforge can only be done once so that can't be too good a supply of runes...
Adeyke, you mention the Countess being better at dropping runes (I did read the Countess runedrop message thread but it centers on v1.10beta so I'm not sure if the Countess is also at least somewhat better than other monsters in dropping runes in v1.09?)
Are there any monster types that have a separate probably to drop runes (eg. are any bosses or SuperUniques more likely to drop runes?)
Since someone mentioned 'magic-find' doesn't help, how about the "players x" command (I'm playing Single Player) -- will it increase the chances of rune drops or would I be better off repeated killing of some boss monster?
Can someone also tell me whether I can find a Sol rune in Nightmare Act 1 or Act 2? What's the limit of each rune to drop -- maybe the ilvl of the rune and the mlvls of the monster that can drop that rune ilvl -- so which monsters mlvl is that of the Sol rune ilvl? Itching to find a Sol rune now...
