Phoenix is the rune word 'VexVexLoJah' for weapons or off-hand armor in Diablo II: Lord of Destruction.

Phoenix is the only way to get enhanced damage on a shield (aside from +x% enhanced damage jewels), and the Redemption aura is very helpful in keeping the character alive. The -28% fire resist is also useful for characters who specialize in fire damage.

Thanks to its unusually large amount of enhanced damage if made into a shield, Phoenix is (by a considerable margin) the most damaging shield for most characters specializing in physical damage to use.
