One way to add sockets to items is to complete a quest called “Siege on Harrogath” for Larzuk, an NPC in the town in Act V. He will give you one item to put in your inventory. If you don’t want to do this quest, you can still use the socketing system to add items to the game, but you’ll have to wait for the next expansion.

Can you add sockets to a socketed item?

Can you add sockets to a Runeword?
You can complete the quest for Larzuk once you are in Act V. If you revisit Larzuk, you can ask him to add sockets to your items. The number of sockets that you can get for each item depends on the difficulty level you are playing at and the level of your character. Sockets are used to increase the amount of items that can be equipped at once.
For example, if you have a level 20 character, and you want to equip two items of the same type, then you will need to have at least one Socket of each type. If you do not have enough sockets, the items will not be able to be equippable. This is why it is important to keep track of how many sockets you currently have equipped.
You can do this by going to the Inventory screen and clicking on “Equip Items” in the top-right corner. Note that this will only add one socket at a time, so you may have to repeat this process several times to get all the sockets for an item.
How do I put gems in sockets?
Placing gems in sockets Gems can be added to sockets in the “Item Socketing” window, which can be opened by holding shift and right-clicking on a socketed item. The gems are dragged into the slots, and the “Socket Gems” button is pressed to apply them to the sockets. Only one gem at a time may be in a given socket at any one time.
Normal gems can only be placed in one type of socket, while unique gems have no limit on the number of sockets they can have. This means that you can place a normal gem in two sockets, for example, if you have two normal gems of the same type in your main hand and a rare gem of that type on your off hand.
You can also place an unique gem on an existing socket if it is of a different type than the one you want to place it in, but only if the socket is not already occupied by another socketing gem. Normal gems cannot be linked to any other gems.
How do you put a socket on a weapon?
To add sockets to a weapon, transmute a normal weapon with a Ral rune, an Amn rune, and a perfect Amethyst. If you want to add sockets to armor, use a Tal rune, a Thul rune, or a flawless Tal.
How do I add sockets to Superior items?
Normal items can be converted to a socketsed item via the use of the Horadric cube, but superior items cannot. If you want to add sockets to a superior item, you need to go through siege on harrogath. The other possible bonuses of Superior items do not affect the item’s stats in any way.
