You can place skill enhancements in them to buff different skills, such as healing range, rifle accuracy while standing, etc.

Yeah, the armor segment-lookin' skill enhancers - I cannot get those to work, nor have I ever come across 'socketed armor' in my travels. I'd like to hear if someone has actually used on of those...


Same problem with the backpack - it comes socketed, but attempting to drag-n-drop an SE onto the backpack only puts it inside the pack instead of in a socket. UGH!

i know that when you oepn your radial menu on the attachment, you have the option "use" maybe it could ork to attach it on the backpack!

When I first went novic tailor I was able to make clothes that had sockets in them. I figured I could do this cause I was using a Sprcialized Crafting tool rather that the Genaric Crafting tool when I made items that only needed the genaric tool. Found out recently that wasn't the case. Did they fix something that I wasn't aware of or what?? and if anyone knows how to make socketed clothes please let me know.. Right now I am a Novic Tailor with only Casual Wear 1 learned.

You need to get to tailoring II to have a chance of making any of the clothing in the tailor tree have sockets.

I just made several pairs of shorts which were socketed (2 and 1 sockets). There was a fair bit of server lag at the time. I've got Domestic 1 only. Is this a bug? I thought the rate of socketed items was very high as its pretty much the first clothing I've made.

That's because you weren't making items from the Tailor line, but from the Artisan line, so no, it's not a bug


You get sockets as an artisan on those items you can make. But when you make it to tailor, you don't get a chance to make socketed items until tailoring 2

Can someone "official" give me a better explanation? This sockets thing is driving me nuts! I bought a backpack with 4 sockets and can't get anything to attach. So:



  • What types of items (specifically - not just "skill-enhancing" but which ones - rolls of tape? plates? what?)

  • How to attach items (dragging and dropping doesn't seem to work)

  • Range of skill modifications and what they do (I've seen "1", "2" and "3"... what is the max?)

Thank you!

Skill tapes go into clothing the plates are suppose to go into armor not sure if they have fixed that yet.


Socketed backpackshavea bug,when you try to drag and drop into them the skill enhancer either goes into the back pack like all other items or it says container is full if the back pack is full. So far I have never been able to add a skill tape to a backpack.


All other types of clothing with sockets does work its just back packs that seem to be bugged this way.


Not sure what the max is for skill tapes I have seen auctions on the server forums for items that have +10, the best I have ever found was +3.

I have a shirt that says it has four sockets. What does this mean? Can I get it enhanced? Thank you.

I will not follow the holocrons' paths. I will follow my own.

sockets are where you install skill tapes. These skill enhancing tapes are mob dropped loot only, and uber super freaky duper rare to boot. To be honest skill tapes are so rare it makes almost no difference if your clothing is socketed or not.
