Some advice on Socketing

[TheKingofKewl]

I am searching and searching nightmare act 5 for socketable war swords and ancients swords but I find everythign but.
I am finding some decetn runes though like Ral and Eld and Sol I think its a 35th level +10 vitality one. I'm hanging onto them

Anyway I have friends looking. If someone finds a 3 socket one handed ancient sword I will pay for it in decent runes. Anyway think about it guys :-)

In hell difficulty the resistances are at -100 (at least i think they are),
however you might have done Prison of ice quest which gives 10 (or 15, not sure)
to all resistances, also you have points in natural resistance which boosts your resistances too
I don't know which are better, runewords or uniques, i think that getting an unique is much easier than high runes in bnet so i'd say uniques...
Of course you should also add crafted items to your lists  :P
Probably u don't know much of them yet, fear not, neither do i  :w00t:  but i do know a page which knows :D  :
Crafted items

And for the runeword King's grace:

I think the runeword Kingslayer is better than King's grace, because crushing blow takes any opponent down very quicly when used by a zealer, also prevent monster heal is good for very tough enemies. Here are the two runewords and their affects:

Kingslayer
Character Level: 53
(1.10 Runeword)

Mal + Um + Gul + Fal    (hmm.. might take some time to find these  :D  )

4 Socket Swords/Axes

+30% Increased Attack Speed
+230-270% Enhanced Damage (varies)
-25% Target Defense
20% Bonus To Attack Rating
33% Chance of Crushing Blow
50% Chance of Open Wounds
+1 To Vengeance
Prevent Monster Heal
+10 To Strength
40% Extra Gold From Monsters

And then King's grace...

King's Grace
Character Level: 25

Amn + Ral + Thul

3 Socket Swords/Scepters

+100% Enhanced Damage
+100% Damage To Demons
+50% Damage To Undead
Adds 5-30 Fire Damage
Adds 3-14 Cold Damage - 3 Second Duration
+150 To Attack Rating
+100 To Attack Rating Against Demons
+100 To Attack Rating Against Undead
7% Life Stolen Per Hit

Of course there may be better runewords, but this is the best i found to use on a one handed SWORD (the best for zealer)
Of course we will help u, just post your questions here at these forums :D
