Mechanics
The Your Maximum Resistances are (76-80)% modifier is a hard cap on the player's maximum resistance. Players cannot get above the stated roll, even when using a resistance flask. So the maximum resistance will always stay at that number. Players still have to gather resistances to get to that number, Loreweave doesn't grant the resistances by itself.
Like with many vendor recipes, the resulting Loreweave's itemlevel is equal to the lowest itemlevel of all the unique rings used to create it. Consequently the item often does not meet the required item level of 50 to have up to six sockets naturally. The mod Has 6 Sockets ignores this limit and grants the item six sockets to begin with. One can reduce the amount of sockets with Vorici's Artisan bench, but can not use the bench to get back to six sockets (attempting to do so results in a "Item has fixed Sockets" error message). Using Jeweller's OrbsJeweller's OrbStack Size: 20Reforges the number of sockets on an itemRight click this item then left click a socketed item to apply it. The item's quality increases the chances of obtaining more sockets. on a Loreweave is only possible when the socket amount was lowered below the natural socket maximum from item level. In this case a single Jeweller's Orb restores the item to six sockets. Note that one might risk to get stuck at two sockets if the item level is 1, as two sockets then likely counts as fully socketed which prevents the use of Jeweller's Orbs and the Artisan bench can not force one socket.[confirmation needed]
