Using Pestilence
The current rune text assigns Pestilence to a Staff or a Wand. Use that explicit equipment scope before spending insertion or extraction resources.
Target an area, leap into the air, and slam down to create a toxic eruption that damages and poisons all enemies within a large radius.
Evidence boundary: Compatibility and technique wording come from the installed public-build localization. The page does not claim that the rune is preinstalled, free to move, or identical across future patches.
