Crystal swords from act 1 NM question!

Are crystal swords from A1 NM able to be socketed by lazruk for 4 sockets?

Nm will probably get 6. Get a CS drop in normal cows that isnt from a super unique, ie just a cow, and its guaranteed 4.

Cows I think are the last place in normal where you can find them at area level 28. Nightmare starts at 36. So I’m leaning more towards probably not 4 socket and closer to 6.

Just fight some cows on normal those are gauranteed 4os from larzuk if you use a crystal.

Crystal gets 4 up to 40, after that it hits 6. I don’t feel like looking up nm levels, I just know as long as a normal cow drops it, it gets 4

get 6? max sockets is 4

Wrong, max is 6 on a crystal

ah okay I didn’t realize high ilvl ones could do that good to know

As I stated, once the Ilvl of the item surpasses 40, max hits 6 instead of 4. Which is why if you get one from normal cows you can guarantee the 4 from quest socketing

6 Ist’d crystal swords used to be a pretty common MF switch weapon

good to know so that would be from like hell cows etc for a 6 slot?

In order for a Long Sword, Broad Sword, or Crystal Sword to get 4 sockets from the Quest or Cube it must be between levels 26 and 40. Lower is not possible. Higher will get more sockets.

Yes as long as you get it before black marsh in a1 nm

Super uniques may change that answer. I don’t feel like looking it up
