Season 4 - Socket System

System overview

• By equipping an attribute (optional) item called 'Seed Sphere' on an empty socket item, you can give the desired option to the item.
• This series of processes is called the socket system. Seed Spears can be extracted from existing items.

Basic structure

• The basic flow of the system largely proceeds in the process of 'extraction → synthesis → installation → destruction'.
• All seeds, spheres, and seed spheres required to use the system can be sold/purchased and traded at individual stores, and stored in warehouses

extraction

Extracts seeds with specific options using excellent items and set items as materials. Extracted seeds become another material for creating seed spheres in the synthesis stage. Extraction can be done through the Seed Master NPC in Elbeland.

1. Select the extraction material

Materials required for extraction. The success rate varies depending on the level of the material.

Check extraction success/failure

Success seed generation.

Failure: Excellent/set items used as materials are randomly dropped between levels 0 and +2, and all jewel items are destroyed.

Synthesis

The step of combining seeds and spheres to create seed spheres is called synthesis. Seeds can only be obtained through extraction, and spears can only be obtained through monster drops when hunting. Synthesis, like extraction, proceeds through the Seed Master NPC, and in case of failure, all items used as materials are destroyed.

* Materials required for synthesis. Depending on the grade of the material, the option value varies.

Sphere

A crystal ball-shaped item that holds seeds. A spear by itself has no function or effect and cannot be socketed. Classes are classified according to spear strength. (The higher the grade, the better the performance and the higher the option value when synthesizing) ※ Only one grade of spear is reflected in this update.

Sid Sphere

An item created by synthesizing two items, a seed and a sphere. When synthesized, it inherits the seed's option and has a numerical value, and when it is socketed, it gives the item an option. Various seed spheres can be created through seed and sphere synthesis.

mounting

This is the step of installing the seed sphere in the empty socket, and can be done through Elbeland's seed research NPC. Weapons - Fire, Ice, Lightning properties, Armor - Water, Wind, Earth property Seed Spears can only be equipped.

Select the mounting material.

* Materials required for mounting. Additional socket options may occur depending on the content of the material and the order of combination.

Check additional socket options. Additional options are divided into bonus socket options and set socket options.

-Bonus socket option: Occurs according to the combination of the number of equipped seed spheres by attribute (options that occur according to the order of seed sphere combinations are different and occur according to probability)

• 30% chance

division: Sword/Axe/Blunt/Spear/Bow/Crossbow/Scepter

• fire attribute 1 lightning attribute 1 ice attribute 1: Increase attack power +11
• lightning attribute 1 ice attribute 1 fire attribute 1 Skill attack power increase +11

division: cane (staff?)

• fire attribute 1 lightning attribute 1 ice attribute 1 Attack Power/Magic Up +5
• lightning attribute 1 ice attribute 1 fire attribute 1 Skill attack power increase +11

division Helmet/Armor/Pants/Gloves/Boots/Shield

• water attribute 1 land attribute 1 wind attribute 1 Defense Up +24
• land attribute 1 wind attribute 1 water attribute 1 Max Life Increase +29

---

-Set Socket Options: When the number of Seed Spears for each attribute of all socket items worn by the character satisfies certain conditions, a set socket option occurs with a certain probability.

• 100% chance

All equipped Sid Spears

• fire 1 water 1 ice 1 wind 1 lightning 1 land 1: Double damage chance increase +3% 100%
• fire 1 water 3 ice 1 wind 3 lightning 1 land 2: Enemy defense ignoring attack +1% 100%

destruction

Destroys the Seed Sphere equipped in the socket item to remove the option effect of the item. Upon destruction, the selected Seed Sphere will disappear. Destruction can be done through Elveland's Seed Researcher NPC. When destroyed, there are no materials needed other than the item and Zen.
