[epik31]

Can we sock magic/rare/set/unique items
by putting them in the cube and mixing with something?
Because that will really help me out.
I'm play ver. 7.50
If possible, and uf any of you know how to do it, please tell me.
Or if it's only possible in 7.51, let me know too.
Thx again for your care

yes.


1 socket item -> 1 item + (Socket Amount + double amount of perfect gem's)


 

[EvilRabbit]

meaning if i want a 4 socket so 4 + 8 = 12?

[Icetongue]

No, actually the formula is this Item + 2x PGs = Items with x soxx
Or, short said, a socket needs the doubled amount of PGs.

[EvilRabbit]

i still dont get it. im sorry =|    

[Icetongue]

Well, it's quite simple...
1 socket = 2 PGs
2 soxx = 4 PGs
3 soxx = 6 PGs
and so on...Got it?

[EvilRabbit]

ic can i make a socket into this sword, than add 2 later, than later add 3 more?

or i can only do it once

[Icetongue]

You can only add soxx once. If an item already has soxx, it cannot gain additional soxx, so be careful, when counting the PGs.

[EvilRabbit]

eh can i add u on msn? im new to this mod ive really no idea on so many things =|

Make sure you have the right version of the game 4 the right socket receipe:

in 7.49 it was oils
2 for 1 socket
3 for 2 sockets
4 for 3 sockets
5 for 4 sockets and so on.

Then it was changed to Skulls
(same receipe as above)

And now in 7.51 it Gems with the receipe 2 gems = one socket
 

[EvilRabbit]

shit i think mine is 750 as my setup file is named 750.

[Ueber]

If u play 7.50 i assume u play single player.
I recomend upgrading to 7.51 now, because there is a bug with your doll stash in version 7.50, that got fixed in 7.51

Then u can also use the cheaper receipe with socketing items with gems (doesn't matter what kind, just need to be perfect)

[EvilRabbit]

do i have to restart my charc =| if not where to get it?    

[Ueber]

No, but make sure 2 throw you old dollstash away before upgrading.

[Alys]

How about rare items, can they have multiple amount of socs, like 6x?

[alexey222]

like 6 soc....no but 5 can be done in the flail

[DrowElf]

All rare items can get the same number of sockets as their grounditems. Their is no limitation for the sockets, except the uber-unique which can´t get sockets at all.

So some rare items can get 6 sockets, as example you can get 6 sockets in a war axe.
