Adding sockets to a non-socketed item can be obtained in two ways - Cube Recipes or via Larzuk Quest

Cube Recipes

You can take a look at the recipes on the left for adding sockets to your items. You should keep the following in mind:

  • You can add sockets to white or ethereal items which are NOT Superior!
  • The number of sockets is determined by a random roll of a dice (a random value from 1 to 6). The result will be either the value of the roll or the maximum number of sockets the item can have.
    For example, a Monarch shield, can have a maximum of 4 sockets. Rolling 1-3 will give you 1-3 sockets respectively. Rolling 4-6 will equate to 4 sockets as this is the maximum for the item.
  • When removing the runes/gems/jewels in a socketed item with the last recipe, the runes/gems/jewels will NOT be returned to you.

Larzuk quest

  • For white or ethereal items this will add the maximum number of sockets in accordance with the item level.
  • For magical items you can obtain 1 or 2 sockets with 50/50 chance.
  • For rare, set or unique items, the quest will always yield 1 socket

Useful Recipes

Caster Amulet

Amulet+Jewel+ Perfect Amethyst+Ral
=
Caster Amulet

Caster Amulets are very powerful, because they can roll +2 to class specific skills, 10-20 FCR and with various other mods such as MF and resistances.

  • In this recipe amulets should be magical and you can use any jewel.
  • To get the +2 to class skills mod, the caster amulet should be level 90+, so the magical amulet should either be:
    1.gambled amulet (your character should be level 93+)
    2. amulet from Nihlathak (your character should be level 85+)
    3. amulet from Baal (your character should be level 81+)

Blood Gloves

Lower Kurast Rune Farming

Lower Kurast (LK for short) is a great place to farm high runes in Single Player, Hell difficulty. There are 3 or 6 super chests and each of them has only 65534 combinations (2^16 - 2). Some of these combinations contain high runes. You can roll a decent map and have 30-60 second runs where you check all 6 chests. On multiplayer, maps are rerolled every time, so this is not a viable strategy - you can still check the chests, but it will not be such a power method for farming high runes.

LK runs are also good for farming charms, jewels and gems as they appear very often in the chests.

This short guide includes everything you need to know about LK farming.

Runes

As mentioned above, there are 65534 combinations and some of them contain high runes. The type of high runes available in those chests depends on the player setting (e.g. type '/player 7' command in chat or go to settings) and whether the chest is locked or unlocked. Your chance of getting runes does NOT depend on MF.

The table below shows the number of combinations (out of 65534 total combinations) that contain runes, for each player setting, along with some probabilities when farming all 6 chests.

Note that there is a 19% chance that a chest is locked and 81% chance that it is unlocked. There are slightly different rune combinations for both cases, so they have been averaged out.

From the table, we can see that is best to farm the chests on players 7-8, unless you are farming specifically for Lo rune, which is slightly better farmed on player 3-6.

Let us now take a look at some probabilities. Probability is defined as P, we assume 6 chests are farmed at 30 seconds per run.

For players 7-8:

  • P(getting at least one Pul+ rune) = 0.00737 or expected 1 rune every 136 runs, appr. 1.1 hours.
  • P(getting at least one Ist+ rune) = 0.00369 or expected 1 rune every 271 runs, appr. 2.3 hours.
  • P(getting at least one Sur or Ber) = 0.00101 or expected 1 rune every 990 runs, appr. 8.3 hours.

Runes Probability Calculator

You can input the players setting and your desired runes to get a probability calculation for your selection.

Players Setting

'toggle-arrow'1-2'toggle-arrow'
  • P(at least one from 6.2 selected runes) = 0.00057 or expected 1 rune every 1754 runs, appr. 14.6 hours.

Finding Super Chests

In Lower Kurast you are looking for a campfire. There are two huts, one is to the left, the other is on top. The first contains 2 super chests, the second - 1 super chest. This is illustrated in the image below:

Lower Kurast Campfire

A Perfect Map

Lower Kurast maps can spawn 2 campfires for a total of 6 super chests. In a perfect map, you will have the waypoint and the two campfires very close to it.

Start from the waypoint, go through the chests and come back to the waypoint. Teleport to Act 4, save and exit and repeat.

Take your time to find a good map, because a few seconds save over thousands of runs could mean hours. An example of a good (not perfect) map is given below:
