Nah, I'm going with raw lvling as I find it easy as hell with warrior. Why am I supering em? Becouse I wanna lower the chance of success upgrading it at TC, WHY? I want sockets...

Anyway this may not be the smartest way to get sockets but still.
Step 1. My main char (warrior) -> 130lvl -> Reborn.
Step 2. Make few new chars, all WARS. Why? :P My mains gear can be shared with all of them while lvling to 120.
Step 3. I can sell 110 promo DBs to get Celestial Stone, maybe few mets and few tokens to lab (Soul, earth coz sky is easy to get as warr..)
Step 4. Reborn finally, get the gem use it or sell it and sell char if actually someone will buy it. Warr->warr more rare then water->something.
While I may get some sockets when upgrading I also will get super gems when reborning...
Edit: While leveling to 120 lets say 5-10 warrs at a time (only one gear..) you should be able to take care some of the expenses coz no matter what there will be met/db etc drops.
Again, I would like to have more feedback ^^
