so you get to lightning and have an extra +50 something.

for 1000 socket stones

300,000 = 1 gold, 1 gold = 15 stones, = 20000 for one stone

that's TWENTY MILLION COIN for a single socket, not even including the shard you choose to put in.

My question is who the **** are all you people that have 4 sock everything? at what point did you end up with 85 mil to blow xD

    Sub a HH3-1 run once per day & in a few weeks you'll be able to afford to socket stuff by buying gold straight out of the auction house.

    Or max out your credit cards :o

    You have much to learn young noob wizard. If you QQ about socketing lvl 11, don't bother with lvl 12 then let alone lvl 14.

    My bow needs 8000 socket stones for the 2nd socket :S

    With max sockets you get pretty effects which is why they are desirable

    With the increase of coin flooding by our GMs/devlopers, some players have collected hundreds of millions already. To a person that spends a fortune to make an item +12 (as some already have), a 4rth socket is nothing. This game doesnt have any real pvp, so its all about 'looking good'. I mean, what else are you gonna spend coins in?

    Besides, we all know that chicks dig cool chars. Get a cool effect from 4x g8 shards on your armor and you'll have babes drooling.

    The SockeT Stones Requeriments for some equipment or weapons is just RIDICULIOUS for even 2nd Socket , It's just RIDICULIOUS And ****!! YES BEACAUSE With $90USD I can easily Just Sell the Gold and Buy a WAY Better weapon or like 5 of the same weapon Im trying to socket.. with all of them already having 2 sockets.. SO Nobody is gonna bother buying SO RIDICULIOUS Amounts of stones for 1 stupid socket more. The fellas who decided on this RIDICULIOUS amounts of stones for the next socket were Well.. pretty Stupid.

    If you think that is bad, it will take, on average, 334 FF runs per person to get them a FF Gold weapon. And those are not even end game...

    Besides...I do not have 1 item from the event and all gear is HH90. Hardly the best by any means.

    "Through the darkness light can always emerge, it is only when the unwilling come upon this light that fear takes over. Emerging from this darkness takes more then courage, it takes faith in ones own mind and more importantly in ones own heart. To deny the light is to deny yourself the feeling of true happiness and true peace within your own soul. Denying your own happiness and your own soul is denying all that one has to live for."
