Selling it is not worth the effort, IMO. I say cube it. Especially if you would actually use it.

You have a 20% chance of getting something usable/sellable. I say that + the rush is worth more than a few pgems.

I think it would be 16.6% chance at 4 sockets. Dice rolls 1-6 and if it rolls 5 or 6, you get 5 sockets in this case since it can't roll 6 sockets. So basically a 1/6 chance at 1-4 sockets, and a 2/6 chance at 5 sockets.

That said, 5 socket is usable, so if you look at it that way, it's a 50/50 on not being completely useless!

I thought five sockets is the max for a GM bow. Has it been amended to six by Blizzard?

Womp Womp Womp...I ended up rolling five in the cube.
At least it wasn't 1-3?

Was worth it for the rush though!
