Socketed Gloves

Lookit' what I found: a socketed legendary glove!

The stats are nothing special, especially for my level, but you don't see a socketed legendary glove that often so I'm keeping this one for my collection (I also have a socketed pair of boots).

I'm hoping that with the right kind of jewel, the glove will make up for the drop in damage for my Barbarian character though it's probably going to have to be a marquise level gem (which is going to be insanely expensive).

Going to need an Upgrade SOON!

I'm currently on Act 2 Inferno Difficulty, Monster Power 2 with my Barbarian on Paragon Level 34.

I'm still managing to hold my own but the demons and monsters are getting tougher and tougher to beat. Aside from the higher vitality of these infernal creatures (not to mention the bigger DPS), the darn things are traveling in bigger packs.

With the odds stacked against me, I am forced to fight smarter AND harder.

Even that's not going to be enough after a while though. I can feel it in my bones. I'm currently merging my gems together (I've got quite a few socketed items). The improved jewels will hopefully bolster my stats so I can progress further to earn a bit of gold (merging gems are expensive) and chance upon better gear.

The last resort is the Auction House of course but things are so frikkin' expensive.
