🗺️ BEST SOUL STONE FARMING LOCATIONS
- Cubric Dungeon (level 150+): High density of monsters; each clear gives multiple Basic Stones.
- Island of Forgotten Gods (level 170+): Elite monsters drop Rare stones occasionally.
- Sky Fortress raid (level 220+): Bosses frequently drop Epic stones.
- Alcatraz dungeon (level 240+): End‑game area with high drop rates for all tiers.
❌ COMMON MISTAKES TO AVOID
- Socketing Basic stones directly: Always upgrade to Epic first – Epic stones give triple the bonus.
- Placing wrong stone type: Do not socket Intelligence on a physical DPS weapon.
- Socketing leveling gear: You will replace it quickly – save stones for end‑game equipment.
- Forgetting maximum socket limits: Some items have fewer sockets than you think.
