They used to be used to socket magical (blue) items in 1.09. So now yeah, their useless.

They still do Alli *prepares to be ignored*
importance of chips - Allisurd - 06-11-2004
lol... Didn't they change it to perfect or flawless gems with 1.10?
importance of chips - Po_boy - 06-11-2004
I believe it works with every quality of gems as long as they are the same *is amazed he was not ignored*

Just checked. You need three perfect gems (any will do) and a magical weapon. You then get up to six sockets, and the ilvl is about 60% of the original ilvl of the weapon.

Here are cube recipes that use chipped gems, just to prove that they aren't totally useless. no flamey flamey.
Arreat Summit Wrote:4 Health Potions (of any type) + Ruby (any type) + Magical Sword = A Magic Sword of the Leech
You can use this formula to get a Life Stealing sword. ilvl = 30. The sword will always have the "of the Leech" suffix (4-5% Life Stolen Per Hit) and has a chance at getting a prefix as well. The type of sword is retained. For example, a champion sword as input will give a champion sword as output.
1 Magic Shield (any type) + 1 Spiked Club (any quality) + 2 Skulls (any quality) = Magic Shield of Spikes
ilvl=30. The shield will always have the "of Spikes" suffix (Attacker Takes Damage of 4-6) and has a chance at getting a prefix as well. The type of shield is retained, and any type of shield (including paladin shields and necromancer shrunken heads) works as input.
Diamond (any quality) + 1 Staff (any type and quality) + 1 Kris (any quality) + 1 Belt (any type and quality) = Savage Polearm Class Weapon
ivl = 50. The polearm will always have the Savage prefix (66-80% Enhanced Damage) and has a chance at getting a suffix as well. The polearm will be one of the following, selected randomly: Bardiche, Battle Scythe, Bill, Halberd, Lochaber Axe, Partizan, Poleaxe, Scythe, Voulge, War Scythe (put another way, any normal polearm or any exceptional polearm other than Bec-de-Corbin and Grim Scythe).
3 Thul Runes + 1 Chipped Topaz = Amn Rune
3 Amn Runes + 1 Chipped Amethyst = Sol Rune
3 Sol Runes + 1 Chipped Sapphire = Shael Rune
3 Shael Runes + 1 Chipped Ruby = Dol Rune
3 Dol Runes + 1 Chipped Emerald = Hel Rune (ladder recipe)
3 Hel Runes + 1 Chipped Diamond = Io Rune (ladder recipe)
3 Health Potions + 3 Mana Potions + 1 Chipped Gem = 1 Rejuvenation Potion
Use this formula if you are in need of instant healing and/or mana. Any grade of Health/Mana Potion can be used.
1 Eld Rune + 1 Chipped Gem + Low Quality Weapon = Normal Quality Weapon of same type
ilvl = 1. That is, regardless of what the ilvl was beforehand, it will be set to 1.
1 El Rune + 1 Chipped Gem + Low Quality Armor = Normal Quality Armor of same type
1 Ort Rune + 1 Chipped Gem (any kind) + Weapon = Fully Repaired and Recharged Weapon
You cannot repair ethereal weapons.

No, it changed with 1.10. It's now the same but with perfect gems instead.

you can use 3 chipped to get a cruel prefix. the only thing now is that it comes with max 2 sockets instead of 3 like 09.
importance of chips - Tonberry - 06-14-2004
do they all have to be of the same type (as in both like 3 chipped rubies)
cos it wont do it on mine...
it might be D2 but...

not to mention any names, but i've seen some of the moderators and higher members acting particularly vindictive towards others. remember, this is a great website about a game with fun forums.
