it saves space in your stash/inventory. Instead of having a page full
of pgems, you can have almost an unlimited number of gems and only take
up 5 spaces.

Err... I don't know what game you are playing, but in mine there are 7
types of gems.
Personally, I carry all 7 gem bags in my inventory, to put the gems in
immediately upon finding them, too often I found myself coming back to
town with 10-15 gems in my inventory, so carrying the bags actually saves
me room in the long run.
Also, didn't Chaos Energy say that there was a limit? Something like 255
or 256 total per bag? I am just about half way there with my fullest
bags, so it will be awhile since I have been playing this mod for months
already.

yes :-( I have not been being very accurate lately! LOL I guess
working 12 hour shifts is finally catching up to me!

There is a limit, but if you do fill them up, you can buy more bags and
start filling them up again. Still that makes one page in the stash
hold an "almost" limitless amount.

1: they hold 2 chips, add a 3rd chip causes them to become a flawed gem.
Likewise up to Perfect.
And they'll hold 200 perfects.

Place the gem bag and nothing else in the Cube and hit Transmute. A gem
of the lowest quality will be removed from the bag (i.e., chipped,
flawed, etc.). Remove that gem from the Cube and Transmute again. Rinse
and repeat this process until a perfect gem gets extracted from the gem
bag.

About "all those stash pages". I will admit that I am a packrat, but,
even so, there seems to be a limit as to how much stuff you can
actually have in your stash pages.
My barb has a ton of items. I don't know why I keep all this stuff, I
just do. First, it takes 10 minutes to load up a game and, hence, his
stash, for him (yes, I've actually timed the 10 minutes). Second, about
a month ago my game started crashing with this error:
Assertion Failure
Location : D2Game\PLAYER\PlrSave.cpp, line #1811
Expression : !"Character has too many items"
At first I thought it was pretty funny -- I knew I was a packrat but
I've never actually had it crash the game before, ha, ha! -- but when
it crashed my game on level 9 of the Hell Dungeons so I lost all my
progress, it wasn't so funny anymore. And despite the fact that I went
through my stash and sold off things that, really, I was never going to
use, my game keeps crashing at random times.
I had never cubed any gems, or used the gem bags that I bought. I just
kept mindlessly stuffing gems of varying qualities into my stash, so I
decided it was finally time to cube 'em up. Rubies alone took me over
three and a half hours to cube, and I ended up having to buy two more
ruby bags.
Not all of those over 400 perfect rubies started out that way. So that
means three flawless rubies for each perfect, nine normal ones, etc. So
now, instead of my computer having to load the graphics/info for
perhaps seven or eight hundred rubies of differing qualities, it now
only has to load three gem bags. I expect that when I get around to
putting the rest of the gem types into their respective bags, my game
will run a lot smoother.
So I think getting into the habit of using those gem bags is a good
idea. It frees up stash space and perhaps may even prevent your game
from crashing.

my "problem" with gems is the same as it has ever been.. plenty of
gems and not enough socketed stuff to put them in.
I looked on the CE cube recipes page, but its sort of confusing. Is
there a way to make an item with no sockets, to have sockets?

That is very easy in CE. It take 2 pgems for one socket. 4 for 2
sockets and so on. The max sockets on any item is half the number of
spaces the item takes up in the stash/inventory.
I have not had a good record of giving accurate information in the past
few days! LOL If I am wrong here someone let me know!

Only thing wrong here is that sometimes you do not get the max=spaces.
Some items just won't take more than a certain amount of sockets,
especially the lower level items. I have 'wasted' many a pair of pgems
trying for 3 sockets when the item type will only give 2 no matter what.
(meaning that using 6 pgems gave the same result as using 4 would have)
Plus, there are _no_ items that give more than 6 sockets even tho they
take 8 spaces.

Heh, you think those are nice? A 'measly' 7.5 million? Wait until you
get some valuable elixirs, they are worth almost 500 million. Those are
for when you have the whole weekend free, lol. Oh, and I think there was
something worth almost 750 mil also, but I forget what ATM.
btw, to gamble 'uber' items, try creating a level 96 char with the -act5
switch and use them for gambling. Although, I enjoyed leveling up and
seeing what 'new' things I could gamble every couple levels or so also.

Besides gambling, they are nice for when you are taking on end bosses,
they give you a _very_ big boost in life and mana for awhile, makes you
almost invulnerable.

Are there any way to add more sockect to ie. a one socket item (or
alternatively remove all sockets from an item ?)

I think i added 4 sockets to a 6 spaces bow.... Probably it follows the max
sockets on the itemlist at

Are there any way to add more sockect to ie. a one socket item (or
alternatively remove all sockets from an item ?)

I think i added 4 sockets to a 6 spaces bow.... Probably it follows the max
sockets on the itemlist at

Have you tried re-rolling it with the 2 blue charm or one yellow charm
recipe? Does that take sockets away? You can get the runes/gems/jewels
out first with a Suicide Minion doll. Plus, you can make a runeword in a
blue/magic or yellow/rare item, so roll for some nice mods even before you
resocket it to make whatever runeword you want.

With runes and gems so abundant, is there really a need to use a suicide
minion doll for that? Wouldn't it be better to put in the doll stash?
Or is there another cube recipe for it?

Yes.
My assassin just used 5 of them.
I built two runeword claws (a +2 Ass Skills rare and a magic +3 shadow
disciplines for my Psychic Hammer girl), the runeword gives 20-40%
resists... I got 20 in one and 23 in the other. Zod Amn Vex are not
trivial runes, but the claws were rather hard to find (gambling is
tedious).
Popped the 20% claw and a Suicide Minion in the cube, and out popped the
runes. I put them back in and got 35% resists!
The other claws took 4 more minion-re-inserts to get 30% resists (all
the other rolls were lower... 23->20->24->30... I stopped there).
