Gems, Sockets and Cuts, oh my!
Thursday, January 17th, 2008
With each new piece of gear you get, often the first thing you have to ask yourself is “what am I going to socket this with?”. So, what I have here are three different resources that might help you to answer that question.
This is a great site for trying to figure out what’s available to you. It lets you create filters by color, attribute or combinations of those.
This is a great starting point for understanding the basics of gems and socketing. A wealth of information, probably more than you’ll ever need, but a good palce to start if the whole gem thing seems a little confusing.
For those of you who don’t have the dual screens or really can’t stand alt-tab, this addon provides the same information as the sites, but in-game. This is a great addon for a JC but also for anyone who finds themsleves trying to figure out what to put in which socket!
So, hope you find this info helpful. If you do, let me know, leave a comment and let me know if there’s aother topics you’d like to see information on.
