Re: larzuk's socket mechanics

Larzuk adds one socket to uniques, set items, rares and crafted items. He adds 1-2 sockets to magical items, randomly. He adds the maximum number of sockets to nonmagical items according to this table.

That means, your scissors suwayyah will receive 3 sockets, except it was a cracked one which has been repaired with the cube recipe. In that case it will be two.
