Powered and Socketed Weapons

Powered Weapons

A weapon, either an NPC, or created by a player, you can get a bonus when being created or achieved, ranging from +1 to +5 values. The increase in this bonus is linear, there is the same difference between a +1 and +2 weapon, that between +4 and +5 weapon. This bonus can not be observed with Arms Lore, but clearly his attack is higher and the bonus will depend of the bonus of the weapon.

Socketed Weapons

Similarly, there is also the possibility that a weapon is obtained or created to be socketed. This means that the weapon will have a number of empty slots available, which can insert Runes or Gems, giving the weapon a few properties or other, according to the linker that we use in every hole. The holes may be available from only one to three. It should be noted, that if we had a weapon with two or more holes, if gems of the same kind (can be of varying degrees) are placed, bonuses will be added. Not so with the runes. We'll know if a weapon has the ability slots available using the skill Knowledge of Arms, or simply by clicking on the weapon, its name stands for a bright white instead of gray.
The weapons, they can only be Powered, or Socketed, no way can be seen both in the same weapon. It may also be Powered or Socketed weapon Powered.
