I just became a man! Made it through my first merciless labyrinth without a hitch.

Great, kid! Don't get cocky.

Grats! I realized that I am a bitter old man when I look at that chest and go: "great, but that life regen sure is a kick in the nuts."

Bitter, I say!

I managed to craft this today, and it should (technically) be an upgrade from my existing bow. However, I've dumped an awful lot of Fuses into it and it still refuses to link up.

'A Balrog,' muttered Gandalf. 'Now I understand.' He faltered and leaned heavily on his staff. 'What an evil fortune! And I am already weary.'
Six socket it before you link it. Quit linking if you get 5L.

Two rules to craft by.

I will not stop at 5 sockets.

How's it coming? Slow. Days of playing and no achievement. I tried various legacy setups. Maybe it's my lower 60's level? Hopefully. Last two exiles and strongboxes are impossible to find.

If you're shooting for a 5L you should always 6S it first since with 6S you can 5L in two different ways thus increasing your odds. You also have the added bonus of randomly hitting 6L.

Also you seem unsure about whether it's an upgrade, are you not sure because you can't check tooltip? An easy way to test is take the base skill, throw it in your current bow and check tooltip, then do it with this new bow. I generally don't swap gear unless it gives me a 10% change, just because the amount of currency to get it to color, link, and quality isn't worth it for anything less. IMO anyways.

I understand the concept and the reasons behind it, but that doesn't mean my stock of Jeweler's Orbs has gotten any larger. My resources, alas, are a bit limited.

I was using two 5Ls, but I had the socket colors set up differently, so without having the links on the newer bow, I couldn't actually see what the effect would be on my primary attack (unless I recolored the sockets on my chest piece, which wasn't exactly cheap to get). Checking it against my secondary attack, it looked like an upgrade.
'A Balrog,' muttered Gandalf. 'Now I understand.' He faltered and leaned heavily on his staff. 'What an evil fortune! And I am already weary.'
Just went through nearly 700 chroms (all I had) trying to get 4 red on my cospris and I don't even have the sockets linked yet. Fml.

Edit, no, don't fml.... this just happened:
