Home » Site News » Socketing Supplements

Tags :     

Lost amid much of the hoopla were a number of tweaks to the game's equipment system, most notably some welcome eve online isk adjustments to socketing. Socket failures have long been one of the game's more exasperating mechanics, and the newly added socketing supplements, designed to increase the success rates for both enchantment and manastone attempts, are a step in the right direction. I say a step because the failure rates are still noticeable (speculation from the test server has been that the lesser supplements only give you a 10% boost chance). Also, even though there are three types of supplements (lesser, regular, and greater, each of which gives increasing rate bonuses), only the lesser variety made it into 1.9, so we'll have to wait for a future patch to determine the full usefulness of this new system. If you want to try out the lesser supplements for yourself, you can pick them up from the Item Remodeller and Medicine Merchants in Sanctum, Pandemonium, Eltnen, Heiron, Morheim, and Belusian. You must have the supplements in your inventory cube when attempting to socket your equipment. You'll see a selection screen on which you can choose the stone and supplement.
