HI. I was reading on the freeweb site around runewords and i saw that faith and other crazy runewords can be made in "Throwing Weapons".
So i got a Balanced Axe and tried to socked with 4 sockets. Unfortunatly i could only add 3 sockets.
I'm using a throwing barb and i can't figure what weapon i can socket 4 times and use it for throwing ? what axes can i use so i can get 4 sockets on them ?
Thanks in advance !

Any axe or javelin that takes up atleast 4 squares. Ofc you can get 4 sockets in a balanced axe.

That means i'm definetly doing something wrong i guess, i've tried to socket with a quad (3 times in a row) and it only add 3 sockets !
Was a superior balanced axe (white).
Any idea if i'm doing something wrong ? i need a higher level of balanced axe or something ?
Edit :
Made runeword Edge 3 socket : killed a few mobs and when it went to zero quantity if disapeared. Is there something i'm missing or what the hell ? read on his forum that somebody else got the same stuff.. I guess this build is broken ?

Sounds weird on the 3 sockets, maybe a corrupted install? It should add 4 sockets.

For a thrower you want to use the unique throw weaps, eth ones if you can. Runewords are not good since the item still is counted as a white throw weap, thus dissapearing when you run out. So you would be forced to repair before they run out.

Files say 4. Haven't tested myself. Anyone else reproduce this issue?

3 sockets is max on a throwing axe.
