Armor Upgrade Part 3

2-3 Drilling and Insetting
We can create at most 2 gem sockets on an armor (whether it is a soul armor or not). We need these items:

2-3-1 2-3-2 2-3-3 2-3-4

There is a certain success rate as shown in the picutures above, but don’t worry, you only lose the Gimlet after a failure. Let’s have a try.

After using some Gimlets for garments, I created this:

2-3-5

There’re 2 sockets saying Dragon Embeddable. So what does it mean? And what kind of gems can be inset?
Dragon is the socket type. The embeddable gems include: Pluto Gems, Neptune Gems, Uranus Gems, Saturn Gems, Jupiter Gems and Mars Gems.
These gems are created by life skill “Gem Machining”. Only Dragon Socket embeddable gems can be set into a Dragon Socket, for example:

2-3-6 2-3-7 2-3-8 2-3-9 2-3-10 2-3-11

The prefix of the gems go with their bonus attributes.

To set the gem into the socket, just click the armor with Shift key pressed to open a window like this:

2-3-12

And then put in a gem. Please mind the descriptions on the gems. High level gems can only be set into a high level armor. With my orchid robe for level 10 characters, I can only use Pluto Gems. There is a failure chance but you only lose the gem after a failure.

2-3-13

I succeeded. With the Pluto Gem shown above inserted, I created this:

2-3-14

The bonus attribute came from the gem and the socket itself are treated as addtional attributes. So they can be preserved by a Curse Spinel in further upgrading.

The matchup of armor parts and socket types:
Caps – Gloom Embeddable sockets
Garments – Dragon Embeddable sockets
Belts – Faith Embeddable sockets
Boots – Death Embeddable sockets

Super Tip: How to Create More Sockets on An Armor
Find another armor, for example, this one:

2-3-15

It is not a soul armor. But we can still create sockets on it. Let’s do it.

2-3-16

Then find any soul armor, for example this one:

2-3-17

Put them into the compose window, mind the soul armor’s exp and don’t forget to put in a Devine Stone:

2-3-18

This is the product:

2-3-19

Now we can find some more Gimlets and drill more sockets on it.

2-3-20

In this example the 2 sockets on the valiant robe don’t take the places of the 2 creatable sockets for the new upgraded orchid robe, so we can create 2 more sockets on the new robe. 4 sockets will be the final limit on an armor, we cannot create any more sockets by any means.
