Cube Socket Recipe?

**gorf** · 10-03-2006, 17:33

So last night I was reading this:
http://www.diabloii.net/items/horadric-v110.shtml

And the recipes for socketing got me thinking I should start making all my white monarchs 4os prior to trading for ease of selling. The results weren't really as expected, as I only got 1 socket. The shield was found in the pits, so it seems like there's no way it could have a max of 1os.

So I'm guessing the comment on the recipe is wrong/changed? Can anyone tell me how the recipe actually works?

Thanks!

when using the cube recipe u get a random number of sockets, monarchs can get up to 4os so theres a chance of getting 1-4sockets, i'm not sure of the % though of getting each socket.
using larz however will grant max sockets.

so if i find a white berserker axe in the pits and i bring it to larzuk that man will give me back a 6 socketed zerker?????? whut if its superior?

Then you'll get a 6 sockect superior zerker.

zerks can get 6os max mostly becuz of where they're found.
sup wont make a difference when used on larz. sup items just can't be used in the cube for a random number of sockets.

Yeah, but now that you are actually looking for a white zerker, you'll never see another one.

Thanks!

I think that's actually better, because I can now try to make my eth Cryptic Axe into 4os. Is it equal chance to get each # of sockets? ie 1/4 for each in monarchs, 1/6 in cryptic axes, etc?
