Cham Rune	2x Jah Runes + 1x Flawless Ruby	1x Cham Rune
Zod Rune	2x Cham Runes + 1x Flawless Emerald	1x Zod Rune

Note that higher-tier runes are not always more valuable than lower tier runes. Cham and Sur runes are prime examples - it would be a great waste to upgrade two Lo runes into a Sur rune or even worse, two Jah runes into a Cham rune. This is mostly due to the number and quality of runewords each rune contributes to, along with their rarity. Ber and Jah runes are generally considered two of the most valuable items in the game… not counting the runewords they are used to create.

Normal Item Modification Recipes

Recipe	Required Items	Result
Add Sockets to Armor	1x Armor (any type, normal quality) + 1x Perfect Topaz + 1x Tal Rune + 1x Thul Rune
Add Sockets to Helmet	1x Helmet (any type, normal quality) + 1x Perfect Sapphire + 1x Ral Rune + 1x Thul Rune
Add Sockets to Shield	1x Shield (any type, normal quality) + 1x Perfect Ruby + 1x Tal Rune + 1x Amn Rune
Add Sockets to Weapon	1x Weapon (any type, normal quality) + 1x Perfect Amethyst + 1x Ral Rune + 1x Amn Rune

Unfortunately you cannot add sockets to superior grade items (or inferior items, for that matter). You can, however, add sockets to ethereal items. The item must be unsocketed and cannot be magic, rare, set or unique.

The number of sockets added is random, from one to the item’s maximum number of applicable sockets, which varies based on the item type and the item’s iLv. A Kite Shield can never have four sockets, but a Monarch (elite version of a Kite Shield) can. A Crystal Sword found in Act 2 Normal difficulty will never roll with more than 3 sockets, but one found sufficiently late in Nightmare or Hell difficulty can roll with 4, 5 or even 6 sockets. The creator’s Lv doesn’t influence this formula. Suffice to say, these formulae are ideal ways to create socketed items, usually for runeword bases.
