If you try to put a socket slot on an item after upgrading it with a sigil or a warlord’s trophy, this will happen:

The item won’t be able to be socketed after upgrading it, so keep that in mind if you planned to do this like I did.
Just as a warning before you do the same mistake, rip trophy 
EDIT: Turns out the problem is not the trophy itself, but the cap items instead. Items obtained from the 500 conquest cap can NOT be socketed or corrupted!

Wow, that’s kinda crappy. Why the heck couldn’t we do that? Interesting.

If you couldn’t socket raid gear how long do you think it would take them to fix it?

Did you put in a ticket? That seems unintended.

I did. 10 days wait time and my hopes aren’t that high.
Yikes, 10 days? But yeah, now I’m curious to see if we could socket a PvP item and use a Trophy on it afterwards.
It’s possible to use a trophy on an already-socketed item, and it keeps the socket with the new ilvl. At least when it comes to items that rolled with a socket when they dropped.

If only I knew that before throwing away a trophy that takes you 7 weeks to obtain

The pve hunter bow was like this. It took them a about a week to fix after people put in tickets. And they did fix it for people that had already done it/ it wasn’t working for. Hopefully this is the same.
That much I knew. Was just referring to the interaction between applying a socket from the vendor. It sounds like there’s some interaction between that and the trophy not working on the same item.
wait what, I did that with my wep though
I had the same problem - used 475 trophy on MH and now can’t add socket. I have a 465 same wep that seems to allow me to add a socket… maybe socket first then trophy… too late for me to try.
This is what CS sent me after 4 days:
In addition, items that can not roll a socket are ineligible for this. This applies to items received from for the weekly Conquests Reward quest turn in, as the item selected from that quest can not roll a socket.
Any luck on support helping yet?
“that item cannot roll a socket”?
What a BS answer.
Ffs thats why we are putting a socket on it. So that it will have a socket.
And it is actually not even true. I have several items with sockets from the pvp conquest reward (the one where you select the item).
