can now be socketed on torso armor too? not just shields? do you need embers for it?

I just check the game files, looks like it can enchanted on torso as well. Since its a charm on base game you dont need embers (90% sure you wont)

there's a lot of things I've forgotten now but I'm pretty sure this used to be for shields only. having this socketable for torso armor too is big especially for self-found hunter archers. since on a self-found run, rigid carapace is one of the easiest ways to get huge pierce res. but archers don't have that luxury since bow is 2 handed. but now they do if they use it on torso

And you are right.
