Sudden Death Rune

Shoots a powerful Death Damage attack on a single target.
This is arguably the strongest rune in the game. However, as it is a quite expensive rune, it's mostly used to kill strong Monsters fast, or gain a large amount of Experience in a relatively short time span.
For the spell, see Sudden Death. Reward from the Iron Helmet Quest.

• Used to be used by Paladins, but since the Summer Update 2007, magic level is more important for the damage done from runes than your characters experience level.
• Before the Winter Update 2007, Sudden Death Runes did Physical Damage. Since this update, they do Death Damage. The magical formula was adori vita vis, but has been changed to adori gran mort in the same update, to better match the new element system.
• The price was changed from 135 to 162 with Summer Update 2024.
