if item has max of 3 sockets why rolling of sockets is still available when you get 3? would it brake the game if you could not role socket number again when item has max number of it? I think that could be nice thing that devs could do.... like you cant use identify scroll on identified item...

that's genius :O +1

I used about 50+

to find out that this cant be 4 socketed by using them... the reason why I trying was I did a checkout in forums for it. I could easily find 30+ of theese helmets with 4 sockets that means I chould be able to role it out.IF item lvl is important when why it is not shown on item description? and IF item lvl is too low to have 4 sockets why it can be found with 4?
You can call me noob as much as you want but this information should be available in game not learned somewhere in the corner of forums.

You should enroll in "Path of Scrubs: For Dummies" course at your local community college.

This has nothing to do with reading damn guides about the game. I'm convinced I will not find this situation described in there anyway. Point is game restrict you from using identifying scroll on item that was identified. Game should have restriction on rolling maxed item too.

I'll just give it a bump since it's actually a pretty neat idea.
I for myself never needed this feature, but i'm sure it would help for plenty of ppl.

Personally I would like to see dev response to this idea

Cant get this to 5l at all

Yet this 5linked in under 12 fusings

Also rolled a 6l once with 6 fusings, then jewler orbed on it accident (tired as hell, meant to chrom).

So yea, luck is luck.

Another reason why item with max sockets should be restricted to roll again. This makes game more frustrating for no reason.

I'm curious to know why requirement level and item level are even distinct concepts. As I understand it, iLevel determines the range of mods an item can roll. Why can't this number simply be the same as the level requirement?

SHOW ITEM LEVEL IN TOOLTIPS

its becoming more and more necessary to me, that we should have item level shown on loot without having to type /itemlevel each time in the chat box to figure it out.

reason why GGG doesnt add this? their only answer so far "...it would confuse newer players"

thats it... thats the only reason? really?

make it a toggle in the options, defaults to off, that way your "newer" players cant become confused about seeing duplicate level information on gear.

your more "veteran" players who are aware of the diff between item level and required level now wouldnt have to be assed to type /itemlevel on 10+ freaking pages of stashed loot because a vendor receipe gets changed.

If you have no chromatics and its an easy to roll item (like weapon or shield) you can just keep roling with jewellers to change the socket colors. Its not strickly cost efficient, but its like quibbling over loose change compared to trying to trade for chroms.

problems like this almost make the game unplayable id rather have game bugs than every half hr having to spend an hr searching through post to find how to play the game then finding the answer is wrong due to an update by the difficulty of learning basic game macancs such as this ruined this game i guess they think its fun like putting a sudoku puzzle on lvl 3 of a fps but it doesn't it just ups the learning curve and keeps new players away because they don't seem want you to know how to play
