Blacksmith Sockets

New to Wrath, blacksmiths can create 3 sockets, 1 of which can be applied to everyone's gear (eternal belt buckle), and 2 of which can only be applied to a blacksmith's gear (socke...

New to Wrath, blacksmiths can create 3 sockets, 1 of which can be applied to everyone's gear (eternal belt buckle), and 2 of which can only be applied to a blacksmith's gear (socket bracer, socket gloves) . These should be implemented somehow.

They don't exist on wowhead (at least, I couldn't find it), but wotlkwiki.info said there's a 4th BS created socket, for 1-h weapon too.

Alex, I have a comparison for you. Kargath realm, US server. Toons "oldlockwam" and "leorand". This is related to my post in another thread, about how you calculate gear scores: viewtopic.php?f=19&t=93&start=0&st=0&sk=t&sd=a

If you put in the two gear sets in both the Warlock DPS spreadsheet by Leulier, and RAWR, you'll find oldlockwam's gear selection comes out superior (by about 55dps too, it's not trivial). However on wow-heroes leorand has a higher score. It looks like the chest & headpiece of oldlockwam account for the majority of the score difference on wow-heroes. In game the chaotic skyfire diamond and the T4 2-set bonus is *huge* (it clearly outstrips the ilvl difference).

I really like this site. I don't necessarily know whether one purple is better for a class than another, so as a quick calculator, when putting together a PuG Kara or ZA, I can query the toon here, and say "ah look. Yes, you have all epics, but your PvE rating is in the 400's. You're not good enough for ZA."

... for example.

This doesn't always work though, because certain set bonuses are *amazingly* powerful. For example, on my warlock it's better to have the 2-piece T4 bonus and equip the T4 chest and head together, than it is to break that bonus and equip say the T5 chest and the T4 head. Or the T4 chest with the Hood of Hexing from ZA.

I recognize it'd be a lot of work (work that I'm not willing to do, so I can hardly expect *you* would be willing to do it) to somehow recognize, rank, and score 2, 4, or more set bonuses for all the Outland sets for all the classes ... but it'd be pretty sweet!

I would think this'd be an easy enough tweak to the "Compare" tab -- after I've made one query on the main page for a toon, wow-heroes.com remembers the previous server, and the previous country. This is great! It persists between multiple sessions as well, ie closing & opening Firefox ... totally amazing.

Unfortunately the "compare" tab doesn't have the same feature. It remembers the realm between sessions, but not the country. It would be awesome if you could make that remembered as well. Thanks!

And great work on the site! I *much* prefer to go here over the armory. Thanks!
