Would that change things?
Whats a price as is VS a price w/2 sockets? ^_^
you will find 6 chant orbs maybe 2-3 times a ladder but what really gives the orbs value is 2x 5/5 fire facets. single socket 6 chant orbs are a dime a dozen 2 sockets are worth something. the same logic applies to 3 spirit 3 bone spear 2 socket white wands those lol are much more rare maybe 1 every 2 ladders if you are lucky. already on this ladder i found one and ill make a white out of it even when i dont have a nec. even if you get a 2 socket 6 chant orb its very specialized gear and theres not much of a market for it so you might as well make your own enchant support sorc for leveling chars. i find hrs on ladder and i cant sell it - no market, try selling a very specific piece of gear like that lol no way.
also you will need to socket quest it, and its a 50% chance of 2 sockets. magic item sockets are random and not like a white item where you just get max sockets depending on ilevel or a rare or unique that just gets a single socket.
