adding sockets to elite items
I'm pretty sure there was a horadric cube recipe before that allowed adding a random number of sockets to elite items? Or does "Normal" just mean any non-magical item, normal/excep/elite?
1 Tal Rune + 1 Thul Rune + 1 Perfect Topaz + Normal Body Armor --> Socketed Body Armor of same type
This recipe adds 1-4 sockets to the armor, making it potentially useful for a Runeword.
The game always rolls for up to 6 sockets with this recipe. The amount of sockets is then capped to the maximum amount that particular item can have. Armor that can only have up to 2 sockets would therefore have a 1/6 chance of 1, and a 5/6 chance of 2.
