How to Add Rune Sockets to Weapons & Armor
Long story short, you need to have an Artificer’s Orb in order to add a socket to any applicable martial weapon or armor. One way to get these is by salvaging socketed gear at any Salvage Bench, which will get you Artificer’s Shards that can be turned into an orb if you have ten of them.
With one of these things, all you need to do is right click on it and then left click on the desired item to add a socket. Be careful and make sure that you absolutely want to do this, as the process happens instantly upon clicking!
These orbs are just one of the many other currencies that you will come across in the game. Don’t worry too much about using them, as you will likely be drowning in these as you progress further.
Just in case you don’t know how to get to a Salvage Bench, you just need to complete the “Finding the Forge” quest for Renly at the Clearfell Encampment. It is incredibly easy and should take you no time at all to finish on your own.
