    Looks like it has to do with the Gouged Eye of N'zoth. That's neat.
  1. Fawkess's Avatar
    The ability to add your own sockets to gear sounds pretty cool

    Wonder how you get it though, Maybe the new raid?

    what a boring mount...
  1. PointerToAddress's Avatar
    I have a feeling that Gouged Eye of N'Zoth is to turn a corrupted item that you don't want corrupted into a socket so you can still get some power from it. It'll be the best choice for a while, at least until we get enough corrupted resistance to offset that many corrupted items.

    And there's our permanent rune for this expansion.

    Jesus, if those dragons use the Storm Drake model, that's yet another 100% mount I can happily ignore.
    If it's just a case of mistaken identity, then aw shit, here we go again... T.T

    Kinda miss being able to do that as a Blacksmith...

    But I'd guess there will be some kind of mechanism allowing you to convert corruption on gear into a socket. We'll see.

    Peer Pressure (New) Defeat N'Zoth, the Corruptor in Ny'alotha, the Waking City while all players have accepted the Gift of N'Zoth on Normal difficulty or higher 10 points.

    Hopefully the gift of n'zoth required for this achievement is a different gift than the one from the Xal'atath quest chain from patch 8.1

    Otherwise good luck.

    The Gouged Eye of N'Zoth. Wrathions uses it to transform corruption into sockets. It's a call back to the ability to what he did in MoP (put a socket into a sha-corrupted weapon at the end of his quest-chain)

    It'll probably just require the toy version. I doubt they'd require the permanent one for an achievement rather than a FoS, though it might still count.
