The number of possible sockets on equipment is based on the item level as well as the type of the equipment being used.
The number of sockets can be changed by Jeweller’s Orb reforging, using the Crafting Bench in your hideout, an
Orb of Binding or a
Encrusted Fossil. Corrupted items can only be changed through the Crafting Bench and need an equivalent amount of
Vaal Orb as the usual cost of
Jeweller’s Orb,
Chromatic Orb and
Orb of Fusing to change sockets on any corrupted item.
Use Crafting Bench recipes in your hideout to get a 2 sockets and 2 links item.
