Hey there.
I'm at work so I can't update and check it out at the moment.
Could somebody give me the full scoop on socketing ornaments?
What is required?
Do they go up to 4 sockets?
Can you do it with any ornament?
Can you use any shard that you could in armor?

    What is required? Special socket stones you can only get from packs.
    Do they go up to 4 sockets? No only 2.
    Can you do it with any ornament? Only belt and necklaces.
    Can you use any shard that you could in armor? As far as I am aware the only shards that work are also the shards from the packs that give the sockets. They are different from regular shards. So far that I know no old shards can be used in the accessory slots.

    I'm so friggin glad that we are at 2 socks for now.

    I just made 1 sock into my belt and neck. It's as always a chance by choice. to get 1 sock you can use 1 of the new Socket Stones and have a success rate of 33%...add another and you got 67% and with a third you get it 100%. 1 Sock is cheap. The second only adds 6% chance each stone...so you'd need 16 to get 100%-ish.

    All shards and Gems come from the new pack only. I've opened 300 so far and got 7 sock stones, 2 pdef gems, 3 mdef gems, 4 spirit gems and 4 vit gems.

    Those gems can be upgraded more or less like the other shards. For the next upper level u always need 3 from the ones before. Max lvl atm is 5. so 3x3x3x3 to reach the highest possible. Vit stones for example scale as follows:

    lvl1 from pack = 6 vit.
    lvl2 = 8 vit
    lvl3 = 10 vit
    lvl4 = 12 vit
    lvl5 = 16 vit

    or something like that. I'm currently on the way home from work and only had a swift glimpse on that stuff but ya...massive cash generator...but it is not as bad as I expected. I will 2 sock the stuff for my barb and SB and add lvl2 shards into it for now. seems to be the best in terms of cost/usage.

    The stuff in gray is currently unavailable. For now you can only socket Neck and Belt.

    Accessory Socket Stone = 2.2% chance from pack
    You can socket with fewer stones but you won't have a 100% chance.
    1 socket = 3 stone + 1.8m fee
    2 socket = 15 stone + 9m fee
    3 socket = 36 stone + 21.6m fee
    4 socket = 75 stone + 45m fee


    Pyro Stone level 1: pdef +60 = 0.81% chance from pack

    Flood Stone level 5: mres +160

    Brilliance Stone level 1: Spirit +12 = 0.81% chance from pack
    Brilliance Stone level 2: Spirit +16 = 3 level 1
    Brilliance Stone level 3: Spirit +20 = 9 level 1

    Has anyone checked if we can use soulgem conversion to upgrade the shards as well? Say we want to start off with the G1 shard and work our way up to the highest? This better be possible especially with the premise that we can get 4 sock and higher grade shards.

    Yes it is possible, I put a lvl1 shard in for now and to upgrade to lvl2 it needs 2 more lvl1 and 1 Flowing Crystal.

    So pretty sure it works for lvl3 and 4 too.

    (This is only for pdef, mdef, vitality and spirit tho since atk/def lvl don't have their lvl2 yet.)
    Just because I don't write on forums too often, doesn't mean I don't know what I'm talking about.

    >Adding sockets relies on items from packs that are in cashshop for a limited time
    >It even only then has a % chance when you don't have the ****ton needed (considering it's from packs it's a ****ton)

    Why?

    Well, maybe later, semi-retired.

    Does anyone know if the spirit from the gear counts like the spirit from the boundary levels or like the ones from cards and Nuema? Because according the formula, the spirit points from boundary levels are 4 times more effective.

    Skill Dmg =(1 + spirit gain from sky lvl *0.001 + spirit gain from cards *0.00025)*{2-[1/(1 + att lvl from blessing and armor *0.012)]} * base physical att or magic attack

    Spirit is spirit. I think that formula is confusing the effect of spirit in PVP with PVE. Spirit is 4 times more effective against a 0 spirit PVP target than a PVE target (all mobs have 0 spirit as far as I know).
