i was just using runes and i noticed that the more powerful rune equiped on one piece of armor overid all the other ones. so i was wondering if i can do anything else with the armor that dont have runes.

and it doesnt seem like i can get any green drops with henchies cos i killed like 5 bosses in sorrows furnace and grenths but i didnt get anything. ( i had 4 henchies)

Runes - Each Profession has atleast 4 things that you can boost with atleast a minor rune, and then you have vigor. Plenty to fill your armor up.

Henchies take their share of the drops - and what they get is invisible (doesnt say "whatever dropped"). Noone ever farms with henchies for drops.

Yes the higher runes will only count. Stacking a Superior with a Minor doesn't work

You have 5 attributes that could at least use a Minor rune. A Vigor and Absorption (only War) rune should then cover all 5 of your armor pieces.

Henchman will get drops equally as you, so it's not reccomended you farm with them Still you might get lucky like my guildy who got an IDS with 7 henchies unintentionally!

a couple of days ago, i took all henchies(7) with me to run down into Sorrows Furnace. I was going there to cash in some of my Enslavement Stones & Dredge Manifesto's. Somehow i got 2 green drops in that run. I got Drago's Flatbow & The Stoneheart But ive must of done that same, exact, run 15-20 times too, & never got anything. So it is a complete gamble i suppose. Ive also read something about an anti-farming code kicking on to, so i duno..... gl either way

I've gotten 2 SF greens with 2 people + 6 henchies. Really you have the same odds of getting one to drop for you but as stated, you never see what the henchies get so it might seem like there are none dropping.
