Season 1 Sockets Removed When Recrafting Gear to Season 2 Item Levels
Today's Dragonflight PTR Update Development Notes include several professions UI updates, alongside an important warning that crafted items which have had sockets added to them through the Great Vault's Storm-Charged Manipulator will lose those sockets when the item is recrafted to Season 2 item levels. Although sockets can only be added to a handful of gear slots, therefore narrowing the concern to just a handful of items, this is particular importance to plate classes using Allied Wristguard of Companionship and Unstable Frostfire Belt, although it's worth noting that the Jewelcrafting Signet of Titanic Insight always comes with a socket, so it should not be affected.
Although the post specifies sockets added through the Great Vault, it's not entirely clear if this includes extra sockets added to neckpieces with the Tiered Medallion Setting, although those are at least much easier to replace.PROFESSIONS
