Also, the lockpicking minigame is bugged. You can simply cancel out of it and the chest will open automatically.
This is a great find! I hope they never fix it.

Ok I just checked, and it's not doing that in my game. Cancelling out while lockpicking simply resets it for me.
I invested in the gemsocket skill, have at least 4 gems (each of which mentions a weapon effect) but can only place them in my armband doodad (adjutor? adjuticator? whatever)
For the armband, the sockets slots are highlighted, but for the weapon not. Do I need to meet some other requirement?
Only a few weapons have socket slots. You can find out which ones by checking under the "Requirements" section of a weapon description. Some weapons have a "Sockets" section, with one or more empty slots.
Edit: You can actually add slots to weapons by upgrading the weapons on a workbench using the weapon modification skill of your faction, but that seems to be limited to melee weapons.
You have to have the gem socket skill and be at a workbench.
Yes, I have the gem socket skill, 4 gems and I was at a work bench when I tried. The weapon description claims that it can be upgraded with a gem and it has a + on the weapon image. Either my game is somehow buggy, or the plus doesn't mean what I think it means?
I'm not sure I trust that google character. He may be fast, but his name sounds like a mixture of giggle and booger and I hate it when that happens
A quick google suggests you can only add gems to weapons enhanced to rank 2.
Well bear in mind this was just someone on steam forums so they could be wrong. There is a lot of guessing going. I was able to add gems to my adjutor? and that can be helpful but it does also seem the easiest way to make higher tier gems is to combine lower tier gems so you may prefer to hang on to them. It's also possible now that I think of it that the tier of the gem has to match the tier of the weapon? Long weekend coming up so I'll be spending a lot of hours in the game and will investigate further.
Confirmed. Upgraded my sword to ++ and was able to add one gem to it. Presumably tier 3 will allow 2 gems, tier 4 all 3.
