Just one or two thoughts on cube recipes:
Add a Socket Recipe for Uniques/Rares/Etc.
I think it’s just kind of a ridiculous idea that you have to rush a character to Larzuk to get the quest reward to add a socket. I don’t see how adding a recipe that allows you to put a single socket in a unsocketed unique/rare/etc. would really change the game much, if at all. It just saves people a little time of having to get a character norm rushed and then deleted.
Alternate Suggestion
Make the Hell difficulty version repeatable. I don’t like this option as much; but you could put something in the code that finishing the quest (having Larzuk put a socket in an item) on Hell difficulty would re-mark the quest as not started.
Or, maybe you have to fetch Charsi’s Hammer and the Hellforge Hammer and give them to him. I dunno.
Recipe to add Max Sockets to an Item
Just like the last one. Basically, repeatable Larzuk without having to norm rush a character through.
