I was bored, These are primarily designed to add some little extra 'oompth' to the game for mostly martials (because casters are still a bit more powerful and don't need that much help. There is some caster stuff, and some general utility stuff.) Balancing is a little rough, as I was drying to port the D2 items into 5E while retaining original flavor and similar level of power. Add a bit of complexity to 5E. I think balancing around common/uncommon/rare/very rare/legendary/artifact in most cases that a DM decides loot is irrelevant, and trying to balance around completely random loot off a loot table is also hilariously awful as a player trying to make a build...Not that I've had randomly generated loot in decades playing D&D, but I know some DMs probably still do it.
I have not done Runewords; but have done some other D2 uniques. Rings, Amulets, Circlets, Charms, and a few other items.
