Socketing Equipment
In Elsword, many equipment (Costume, Weapons, and Armors) contain sockets, which can be socketed with certain gems to add special effects to the equipment. These can range from increase in Critical to an increase in Element Resistance.
Guide
1) Open your inventory menu (i) and click on the 2nd button to the left (It has a gem icon). The cursor will then change into a sword icon with a small gem next to it.
2) Select the desired equipment from the inventory. Note that items currently equipped cannot be socketed and must be unequipped first.
3) A new window will then open, showing the item's available sockets. The amount of sockets available depends on its rarity; rarer equipment will have more sockets.
4) Drag the desired magic stone into the gray square and click on the button on the bottom right of the window.
5) You have now socketed your equipment! Repeat if you want different stats/higher values.
You can only socket gems if you have sufficient ED. This amount needed is shown in the box at the bottom of the window.
The higher the upgrade level the higher the chance of obtaining higher values.

Stones to socket equipment
In order to socket equipment, you must have certain magic stones. They range from basic to stat-specific stones. Basic stones give a random stat to an equipment, whereas stat-specific gems give a certain effect depending on the gem used.
Basic Magic Stones
Stat Specific Magic Stones
Dual Stat Magic Stones
These are special magic stones that give TWO effects on ONE socket. They can be made via the Alchemist, or acquired from some cubes.
These Magic Stones are no longer available through crafting in the KR server. However, you can still obtain them in Field Boss Cube or Raid Boss Cube.
Old Dual Stat Gems
These are special gems that give TWO effects on ONE socket. They cannot be obtained anymore.

Obtaining Stat Specific and Dual Stat Gems
These gems can be crafted at the Alchemist NPCs, purchasable from the Free Market, or obtainable during certain events. They require materials to craft them. Stat Specific gems require 2 Magic Stones and 4 Advanced Magic Stones. Be warned, the Stat specific gem you get is RANDOM. To craft Dual Stat Gems, they require Bethbites found only in Wally's Underground Laboratory, Dragon Nest: Abyss, Transporting Tunnel: Contaminated Area, Velder's Hallucination and Temple of Trials or the Free Market.
Note: They are now obtainable through Camilla's store, as long as you meet the rank requirements.
