hello, im fairly new to pwi. ive been learning how to craft armor and weapons and have managed to craft a pretty nice set for my 30s lvls ( i think its nice anyway, not 100% sure o.0 ) it has alot of sockets on quite a few pieces and i was wondering what the best fills would be for a barbarian. my initial thought was not to balance the fills, but to go heavily in 1 direction. would it be wise to completely infuse all seal with say evasion, or hp+?? if someone can help with this ( at 60k a shard i really dont want to guess or experiment) id be extremely grateful. or maybe post a link to an informative guide i may have overlooked. thanks

    HP shards, but at low level don't put anything more then say rough or common shards, as you will outlevel the gear fast.

    The mechanics for evasion and accuracy is silly in this game. It's not something that can be counted on.

    Conclusion? Socket yourself with HP shards. This is generally the way to socket armor. Weapons are usually Garnet for physicals (or Ambers for Barbarians and Blademasters classes, which is debatable) and Sapphires for magical instruments.

    for a barbarian always go for hp shards in armor
    and amber shards in wep unless you are a high dex build(though there is alot off debating about amber or garnets but i stil say amber)
    its impossible to always do the right thing we all make mistakes i am not different from that
    just try to be a good person

    ok hp shards it is then. i plan on farming spirit for quite a while, while farming gold. would it still be wise to fill the sockets with lower lvl shards than i can use? would it be that hard to get my gold back when i outgrow this gear and sell it? 1 piece has 4 sockets. at 60k each to fill, should i not expect to get at least 240k for this piece?

    at those levels everyone is pretty darn poor no one is gonna spend alot on that gear especially with the rank lvl 1 top and legs for only 10k nice bonusses and 2 free sockets and its 3* all wearable at lvl 30
    and you rarely get your whole investment back in this game
    just shard with blemished or commons if you really want shards that bad
