I personally don't like this website for determining sockets though, I use diablo.fandom - however they don't have any good index/navigation pages that list all of the items.īelow I have included a succinct list of how the Socketing quest works, I find 'quick lists' of information are usually better than paragraph format. Defense: 80 to 93 Level Requirement: 25 Strength Requirement: 110 Chance to Block: 46 (Paladin) / 41 (Amazon, Assassin, Barbarian) / 36 (Druid, Necromancer, Sorceress) Durability: 80 Max Sockets: 3 Smite Damage: 12 to 16 Type: Medium Quality. They are one of the best shields of exceptional quality, rivaled by the Grim Shield. You can check the amount of sockets certain items have by quickly googling it or by using Arreat Summit. Ancient Shields are the exceptional versions of Gothic Shields.
White and Gray items are given the maximum amount of sockets that the item can have.
Magic (Blue) items will receive either 1 or 2 sockets, the chance is 50/50. You can only add a single socket to these items and the quest isn't repeatable to add additional sockets. This is one of the more unique permanent rewards available to players for completing a quest in Diablo 2.Īny Set (Green), Unique (Brown) or Rare (Yellow/Gold) item you give to Larzuk to Socket will only (and always) receive a single socket. In the town of Harrogath you'll find an NPC by the name of Larzuk that will add Sockets to an item of your choice once you complete Act 5 Quest 1: Siege on Harrogath.
