Greetings and Salutations,
I say socket all 4, one at a time of course and see which one has the most impact.
There are two ways to do this on single player. For one, just backup all files that make up this character into a separate directory, socket the scepter, play around with it and see how it feels to you. Then copy your backed up character to the save directory and do the same for each of the other socketing options.
Alternately, you could use ATMA and save your items to your to a separate item file. Then do the socketing, knowing full well that a copy of your original item is safe. I often do this when I need to experiment with skills and items. In case you don't know about ATMA, it is a muling program that allows you to transfer items between characters in SP only, in addition to other nifty features. If you don't already have this program you can download it free from here. The site is hosted by a relatively reputable website - diabloii.net, although I have used it and have determined free from malice, I cannot vouch for it, downloader beware.
