Okay, got some new information about sockets.
It is said to have something to do with immense artificial lag, clicking on improve and re-opening artisan with the items still in. Put them back in Artisan and improve again.
It's necessary to have intense Lag while doing this.
The logic behind this is to fire as much uprgade requests as possible, thus succeeding more often then just once, yet still the items stays on the same quality and level due to lag.

This is just a rumor i caught, anyone know how to cause the highest possible lag without dc/ing?
/edit:
Another thing i've been wondering about. Whats happening if you got a full inventory and upgrade stuff, the second you put the thing in, its not in the inventory, but a few seconds after. What if you pick up something in the same second you put it in... only do-able with heavy lag. Whats happening then?
A socket only occurs when succesfully upgrading something. Getting an item to trigger the same upgrade 6 or 7 times while only upgrading one level should increase the chance for a socket drastically.
There's a timeframe for about 5 minutes per day,
And during that time the chances of gettin' sockets are huge obviously.
A few friends did it, but everyone's so selfish to tell it ofc.
And for instance a guy on the server with full 2-sockets, I saw him and his friend like writing a . (dot) and "Check" on the MSG-Board and 30 seconds later he's standing in TC, I killed him and he dropped like 15 mets and 3-4 pair of normal lvl 10 boots...
i managed to get a more specific time from my friend, all his sockets, and his friends sockets were gotten within 10 45 pm - 10 55 pm server time. between him and his friends they've got 12 sockets all together from upgrading at this time
it says the time changes after every patch and its now as long as 5 minutes mayb only 30 second to 1 minute, i got a friend who goes to market to upgrade all his necky, boots and ring and hit sockets for all 3...
maybe i should just squat in tc and when i see the socket message, pk them and have my water tao pick up all the dropped items, possibly boost his socketed item

Sockets in CO? 03/16/2006 - Conquer Online 2 - 14 Replies I was reading through the socket thread on the other forum and such... I know a few people who are 100 pct on making 1 socket and around 90 pct on the 2nd socket... So I am wondering if there is a way to make it happen without a chance of failure? I know that the Conquer Online Beta Client (the old old one) you can make sockets without worry on anything with that client... Does anyone know where to get it or know someone who'd upload it to a server? Or just knows a fool proof way to...
Sockets 03/01/2006 - Conquer Online 2 - 35 Replies Hi there everyone, just like to post what i know about socket making in TC.
I don't post much unless I know what i am talking about. OK I tried pretty much every theory that there is arround about making a socket, I spammed 400 mets, I followed the xx:33 theory for over a month and had no success. But then out of know where I get 2 sockets in one week and another 1 this week by following a simple procedure, ok here it is:
1. Get 20 mets (If 20 mets can't get a socket, I don't think...
