That's unfortunate, and is only your fault for accidentally socketing them. Now if it were because of lag, that's understandable (if it would let you socket it at all in lag, since most of the time, items are restored based on points of lag); but you should not blame me, for it is much more worth it to save the item than to save the rune: 4Os flails, 5Os flails, 3Os AP and DS, 4Os armors, 4Os Polearms, Os'd Phase Blades, and Os'd Berserker Axes are worth far more than some accidentally lost rune, especially Berserker axes (they go as high as five high runes).Originally Posted by Cimanim
Worth it in terms to save the item? Yes, absolutlely.
And you should have checked if Ber was used in a runeword, too. Ber + Mal + Ber + Ist = Infinity, one of the better runewords. But instead, you went and sold it, far be it from me to tell you to check something before you do it. Unfortunate as it is, but life goes on. How do you think I felt when I got duped for that Annihulus? I got back on Battle.net, when by all rights, I would have abandoned Diablo 2 altogether, found myself a PComb (which I definitely got gypped for; last time I listen to anyone except killa), got DClone in my game, and shot back up those 5 high runes that I lost. My Druid, Paladin, and Barbarian are all now pimped out as pimp can be.
