lol I tested everything before making the post, it's just that I'm retarded and forgot to mention a few things (excitement?) and had to edit twice

It's not that I don't believe you, but why haven't you linked damn white socket thing ...ouch you actually haven't made it? well then at least vendor window screenshot would be nice. Not nice, but mandatory because ppl won't believe you.


Btw recipe is stupid, it should work with that gems + ANY item. And rest of sockets should be re chromable again, white would stay white.

Only reasonable usage.

Oh btw, collect your reward in that bounty thread for recipes. Yes, again, you must make screenshot.

Thanks for sharing OP

Should edit OP to include screenshot of the unconfirmed vendor trade, just to shut up the skeptics. I recommend imgur.com for image uploads.

Also should try with shields and two-handed weapons.

He may have been in a particular set of circumstances that didn't allow him to screenshot, or maybe something else more pressing was happening at the point in time at which he witnessed said process. If it is a troll, someone will test it and find out the hard way, but until then as most other have confirmed, he has a 'clean' record so to speak, in that no troll activity has been conducted by the OP.

If this is true I do not understand the purpose of the recipe. Why would one pay the equivalent of a dozen exalts to get a white socket in a 3-link?

*IF* you have a wand or so with very high INT requirements
*AND* you need it to be RRR
*AND* you don't like trading for about 1000 chroms (4-5 ex on standard)
*AND* chroming will not affect the white socket
*AND* the recipe is actually true

then it would be useful on a 3-link

If it also works on 6L weapons, then
*IF* you have a mace or so with very high STR requirements
*AND* you need it to be BBBBBB
*AND* chroming will not affect the white socket
*AND* the recipe is actually true

then this recipe will save about 900.000 chroms on average (going from 1 in a million to 1 in 100.000), which would make it worth 3500 exalts or so for you.

Whether using the free respec on your character and using those 3500 ex to buy a full set of mirrored gear, would lead to a better char, is left as an exercise to the reader.

2 hours in and nobody tried it? I am disappoint.

"Shut up the skeptics" possessing skepticism about any and all things that have no evidence is the biggest sign of intelligence. I wonder just how ignorant of a person you are to want to shut the people smarter than you up.

Anything that can be asserted without evidence cam be dismissed without evidence. Like I said in the first post the recipe may be true, and if so good job to the OP, but confirmation is needed.

My bad then. I can admit when I'm wrong about something/body. If enough members say he's gravy, I'm gravy.

E: Still wanna see some proof though

thats around 30+ ex in standard league
