socket mets

hmm im wondering if we could use a packet editor to find out what met is normal met and what met is a socket met or is it random what met socketS

A mets a met

Its an algorithm on the server that decideds sockets.

Quick question: Any chance you can get a soc even if the item failed to upgrade?

No, Sockets rely upon successful upgrade.

I was thinking about this a lot latly. I don't know how true this is, but I heard the change of getting a soc while using a met tear is 9%. And you can make 19 met tears at once. So that 171% chance of getting a soc if thats true. o.0 Anyone want to test?

something like this has been posted before, i think if you leave your met and your ( going to socket) item in the tc artisan and wait untill maintenance without loggin out... estimate when it will be over and try to keep logging on like 3 mins earlier... I think there is a chance you may get a socket.. not really sure. I maybe wrong, what do you say mods?

turn on COPAC and log teh packet when you're getting a socket. then resend the packet and make as many sockets as mets in your inventory :p

EDIT: prolly doesn't work tho

I feel the need to use my very first post to put a total misconception to rest. This seems like as good a place as any to do so.

Obtaining a socket during TC upgrade is not reliant on a successful upgrade

You can get a socket even when it fails, I assure you.

So I should spam my lvl 110 ring with mets?
