A player does not need the Blacksmith skill to forge or socket items. All that is necessary is a visit to the Smith, where item socketing can be paid for. ABlacksmith.gif

How to Socket or Forge

After clicking upon the Blacksmith ingame:

The player will see the Forge/Socketing screen. Bring the item you wish to have socketed over to the field under the word Forging. Only Items that have slots within them can be placed here:

The player can place the item which possesses slots within the Forging field. Following down the field, along the right, will be seen the number and quality of slots that the item has. In the case of this sword, the player will see that there are two slots available for socketing, as well as an indication of the quality of the slots. The cursor is indicating that within one of the two slots available, the quality of this slot is Silver, and can therefore socket runes, smith arts and rings.

Blacksmith arts are Combat Arts that only a Blacksmith can socket. They run along the bottom of the Forge Screen. There are three of these BlackSmith arts, all with different benefits, runing from left to right, and they can take the place of Runes, jewelry, or any other type of socketable.

  • Enhance

Physical Damage +%1

Fire Damage +%1

Poison Damage +%1

Magical Damage +%1

Ice Damage +%1

Regeneration Time +%1

  • Harden

Defense Value +%1

All Resistances +%1

  • Sharpen

All Damage Types +%1

In the example shown below, by clicking on the first Blacksmith Art, Enhance, it will turn to green any available slot that this Blacksmith art can be socketed successfully into.

Since the Silver slot allows runes to be socketed into it, the player can now take the Moribund Animus rune from his inventory and place it into the silver slot. Since a player benefits from secondary effects of another character's runes, in this case, the player would have a weapon that now has +3 Life Leech Per Hit.

Press Forge...socketing is now complete.


Types of Slots

There are 4 different kinds of slots available on weapons and armor that can allow only certain types of items to be put within for socketing.

Bronze.png Bronze Slot

Bronze slots allow the player to socket runes and Blackmith Arts

Silver.png Silver Slot

Silver slots allow the player to socket runes, Blacksmith arts and rings and increased bonus to forged items.

Gold.png Gold Slot

Gold slots allow the player to socket runes, Blacksmith arts, rings, amulets, and will significantly increase bonus to forged items.

Convertion.png Damage Type Slot

The Damage Type slot allows you to socket the following:

LavaChunk.png Chunks of Lava (fire)
Converts a percentage of physical damage into fire damage.
PoisonFang.png Poison Tooth (poison)
Converts a percentage of physical damage into poison damage.
MagicPearl.png Magic Pearl (magic)
Converts a percentage of physical damage into magic damage.
IceCrystal.png Ice Crystal (freeze)
Converts a percentage of physical damage into ice damage.

The above items will convert a percentage of the original weapon damage (Usually from Physical) into the new, chosen element. For example, if a player wanted to enhance fire damage, he would socket one or more "Chunk of Lava" into their chosen gear and that would give them ~30-50% of the previous damage now as fire damage instead of physical. The more elemental damage a player can produce, the better the chance of applying the relevant status effect.
