'''Notes:'''<br>
0:08—The Barbarian casts (probably) [[Threatening Shout]] runed for monster [[debuff]]; the death of one creates a fear [[AoE]] in the others. Thanks to theeliminator for making the suggestion [http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/new-footage-shows-many-new-rune-effects/ here].
 
0:25—The Barbarian uses [[Leap Attack]], with a rune effect creating a circle of five small explosions around the Barb.
 
0:30—The Barbarian uses [[Ancient Spear|Ancient <strike>Spear</strike> Harpoon]] with a rune effect that grants multiple harpoons per use. (The rune in the Arena demo granted the ability to spear multiple targets in a row, if you were accurate enough to pull it off.)
0:36—The [[Wizard]] uses what appears to be [[Ice Armor]], but with a rune that turns the spell into something like the D2 {{iw|Paladin Paladin}}‘s {{iw|Holy_Freeze Holy Freeze}} Aura.
0:59—Wizard hurls lightning bolts that look a bit like javelins. When each one hits it sizzles the target and sends our several tendrils of lightning that kill other enemies. This is apparently a runed form of [[Electrocute]], and it really shows the utility of skillrunes, as a single-target, beam-type spell is changed to a multi-target projectile.
1:07—The 28—Snakes on the face! It’s Bashiok’s favorite<ref>[[Witch Doctor]http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/blue-on-demon-hunter-weapons-and-face-snakes/ Blue on Demon Hunter Weapons and Face Snakes] in fire mode, with flaming [[Mongrel]]s, fiery [[-- Incgamers 27th Oct 2010</ref> rune effect for Poison Dart]], and even flaming [[Plague of Toads]], each likely courtesy of a socketed [[Crimson Rune]]. The way the snake’s tail keeps wiggling after it strikes is hilarious.
1:28—Snakes on the face! It’s Bashiok’s favorite<ref>[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/blue-on-demon-hunter-weapons-and-face-snakes/ Blue on Demon Hunter Weapons and Face Snakes] -- Incgamers 27th Oct 2010</ref> rune effect for Poison Dart. I must admit to enjoying the way the snake’s tail keeps wiggling after it strikes. 1:29—I’m not sure what the 29—Unknown glowing green flamethrower type attack is. Most likely a runed version of [[Firebats]].
1:35—The wiggly blueish-white spell is probably [[Haunt]], engulfing victims, then thanks to a rune bonus, propagating multiple additional Haunts off to other nearby targets. [[Locust Swarm]] does the same thing a second later.
