Socketin Items

I have com back from quite a break and really need to get some BOTD action going (I need to find the etheral ghost spear and colossus blade) My question is if i find these items, will i be able to use the socket quests several time on one item to get up to 6 sockets? Or if it is already socketed, can i add more to it with the quest? I really don't remember, or never really knew...

You can only socket items once with the quest. If you find the item with no sockets at all, you can use socket quest and you will get 6 sockets. if you find one with 1-5 sockets, well, too bad.

SO, even if its etheral, if I find a colossus blade or ghost spear, no matter which difficuilty, the quest will always give 6 sockets to it? (provided it doesn't have any socks to begin with)

As long as it is not magical or rare or unique yes, it will give max amount of sockets i believe :thumbsup:

Since colossus blades and ghost spears are very high treasure class items only hell monsters can drop them. When using socketing quest item quality level (qlvl) is taken to consideration. And because all cb and ghost spears are found in hell they have enough sufficient quality level to get 6 sockets from larzuk on any difficulty. But for instance great sword found in normal wouldn't get you six sockets from larzuk (although great swords maximum is six).
