For example, body armor can have maximum 4 sockets, ILvl < 26 body armor can have maximum 3 sockets, while any Splint Mail can have maximum 2 sockets: this means any Splint Mail has 1/6 chance of 1 socket and 5/6 chance of 2 sockets (2-6 sockets, restricted to 2).īUG: Ethereal armor applies the ethereal defense bonus a second time to output: for example, normal Sacred Armor has (487-600) base defense so ethereal Sacred Armor has (730-900), but after socketing it will have (1,095-1,350). These portals can only be opened in Harrogath in Act V of Hell on the Realms (they cannot be opened in Single Player, despite the Keys being able to drop).Īlthough 1-6 sockets are added, the number of sockets is restricted by item type, item level and specific item.

This can also be used to restrict the maximum number of sockets the item can receive.

Since output normal items are only ILvl 1, items can be created with tiers 1-2 skill bonuses (particularly claws, since those that can have skill bonuses are normally too high in level to have tiers 1-2). Throwing weapons cannot be used as input.
