Item level and sockets CONFUSED!
|
Im confused about how item level works...
so lets say I have a 2 handed that requires lvl 60 to wield and the item level is 61, does that mean it will NEVER get good sockets? Does the item level govern how many sockets an item can possibly get or is it always 6 for the big pieces, 4 , 3 and so on... Also if item level DOES govern how many sockets an item can possibly get, is it the difference between the item level and the required wielding level that matters or just the item level?? I just want to know so i dont waste jewlers/fusings on items that will never give me good sockets. Thanks in advance. IGN:IGotABigStick

I am quite sure that any item with iLvl > 50 has the possibility to roll 6 sockets.
I rolled my 3 socket staff into a 6 socket staff and it is iLvl 55. |

" Chests and 2h weapons can get up to 6. 1hs and shields can get up to 3. All other pieces that aren't 1 square items can get up to 4. Item levels determine the max amount of sockets. I'm sure you can just google this to figure out what iLvl it takes to get 6 sockets. That's what I know about the subject. I don't really understand the questions, your grammar makes it really hard to understand what you're asking. See you, Space Cowboy... Last edited by SaneExile#6254 on Feb 2, 2013, 12:08:13 PM

Body, 2 hander, and Bows can all have 6 sockets.
The ONLY thing that sockets are determined by is the item level. Item level is based on what level zone you pick the item up in, it's going to be around that level give or take a few. Anything that's a body, 2 hander, or bow that's ilvl 50 or over has the possibility of getting 6 sockets. |

" so let me get this straight any item that is over lvl 50 it is safe to assume that it can get the max number of sockets/links that the item can handle right? So I'm not wasting fusings. IGN:IGotABigStick

Yes as Ely said, 6 is the highest and you should try to link them together. Sometimes, like I have in the past, you get lucky and find a piece with all 6 slots linked together already. Then it's just a matter of turning it into a rare, if it's a white, or rerolling the rare's states. Why do you think I have 24 stash tabs and will prob get more? I'm always hording shit I find to turn into something useful.

" Yes, as long as the itemlevel is above 50. 6-socket/6-links are hard to get though, you may burn through a thousand or more fusings to get a 6-link. |

there is no real progession and the items mean nothing in this game, your better off spending your time trying to learn how to counter the bugs in the engine and exploiting it with hacks.

So then here is my question.. above level 50 what GOOD is an item level?? does it even matter??
Lets saying I have 2 maces that are lvl 54 to wield and one of them has item level 55 and the other has item level 70 is the level 70 one better? And if so is there any solid maths I can look at? It would be REALLY great if i could get some confirmation from the devs on this. I believe its a very shrouded stat and there isnt any light on it at all. IGN:IGotABigStick
