Dark Legacy :: manual sockets
Sockets and Runewords
- Crafts
-
You might encounter items in the realms with a number of
sockets placed on them. Each socket will fit a rune (The same
runes used for spells). To place a rune in a weapon, make sure
they are both in your inventory and type '
combine [weapon] [rune]'.Adding a rune in a weapon will give it a bonus. (For example, adding an 'Air' rune will cause it to do +5 additional air damage).
To see how many sockets (if any) an item has, '
cast identify' on it, or just look at it. - Runewords
- Note that in certain combinations the runes will transform and form a word, imbuing the weapon with some form of special magic. For example:
<32000hp 500m 680mv> combine dagger moo
You place a rune into an empty socket of an amethyst gauche.
An amethyst gauche emits a faint *click* as your rune becomes part of it.
<32000hp 500m 680mv> combine dagger tal
