How to Socket Your Base
⚔️ Weapon
Ral + Amn + Perfect Amethyst + Normal Weapon
Adds 1-6 sockets (random). Cannot exceed item's max sockets.
Larzuk Quest Reward — Gives max sockets on normal items. Best way to guarantee exactly 3 sockets on the right base.
Best Base Items for Pattern
Fastest elite claw (WSM −20). Best for Assassins wanting maximum attack speed with Pattern's all-skill bonus.
Budget: Greater Talons — Slightly slower but easier to find with 3 sockets. Good budget option.
Where it drops Hell difficulty only (elite claws).
Socket ilvl ilvl 26+ for 3 sockets on claws via Larzuk.
How to socket Larzuk gives 3 sockets at ilvl 26+. Claws can also spawn with sockets naturally.
Best farming spots Hell Mephisto · Chaos Sanctuary · The Pit (Act 1 Hell)
Terror Zones scale monster levels to your character level (up to 99), so any terrorized area can drop elite bases — great supplemental farming.
