Today i learnt about Vorici's workbench

Hey all,

I'm not going to cry on everyone shoulder, i just learnt a new thing on PoE, the hard way.
Vorici's crafting bench ALWAYS works from top left to down right when looking at the sockets.
So people having a 6 socketed item, with 1 solo socket and then 5-link (still in the order top left to down right) can't use the coloring system efficiently.
It took me about 200 chromas to be like "wait wtf, why is always the solo socket colored the way i want the other sockets to be colored..." so i checked the wiki and it seems it works indeed that way.

in better english, c.f. wiki:
"
NB: The placement of sockets, according to the community at Reddit[1], is such that the first N-sockets or the first N-links will have its properties fixed by the crafting bench. This matters when your item is, say, 1-socket followed by a 5-link - the lone socket will always have the fixed colour, affecting your crafting options.


So now i have to re-link my 6 sockets in order to have 5-link THEN the solo socket, so i can use vorici to get 3 off-colors...

Today we learnt.(even after 2K hours on this game)

SSF is not and will never be a standard for balance, it is not for people entitled to getting more without trading.
