Kurast 3000 BA has high drop rates for normal runes, shrines, gems, jewels, rings/amulets, and Sets. However, Great and Elemental Runes only drop in more dangerous environments that require greater damage and defensive capabilities to survive. Normal Runes are relatively simple to obtain once reaching level 120. % Magic Find does not increase rune drop chances. Hunting runes can vary from easy to difficult depending on the rune type. See Calculating Bonuses for an explanation of Enhanced Damage/Defense calculations.

See Base Item documentation for Damage/Defense and max socket specifications. Items that are predetermined with the Indestructable affix cannot roll Ethereal There is a 5% chance for items dropped from monsters to roll as Ethereal the Damage/Defense bonus is multiplied independently from other affixes. Superior quality can add up to two possible affixes from a predetermined list. However, Indestructable affix prevents this possibility.

Almost all items dropped by monsters have a chance to roll the Ethereal property regardless of quality. Superior Modifier offers extra affixes that boost item Damage/Defense. Normal items can have one of three modifiers: Low Quality, Regular, or Superior. However, if the base item contains more sockets than required by the runeword, jewels must be inserted before the appropriate rune(s) to fill all available socket slots. Runewords do not require a base item with maximum sockets, rather just enough for the runes listed. Each item class/type vary in maximum possible sockets. Runewords can only be made with Normal quality Tiered or Sacred items. See Runewords documentation page for a list of available runewords.
