Depends heavily on the build, but honestly SSSUs are so rare it doesn't make much sense to plan a build around them. Most rely on SSUs
How about SSUs vs xis/great runewords? Comparable? Guessing it's dependent on which build the xis runeword is for.
How do xis runewords compare to great/elemental runewords?
What are late game options for sockets?
How about you play the game and tell us about it?
You really need to pick a build before asking questions like that.
Can't really tell if the reply is being sarcastic/nasty..

But ok, thanks I see that it's all build/class dependent.
I've only restarted playing the game abt 2 weeks ago, and I only play for 1-2 hours after work, so I'm fairly new and just wrapping my head around the game and the myriad of item options..
I'm not asking about a specific build because I'm just using a starter build (relatively ungeared cold sorc) to farm gear for more gear dependent builds that I'll try in future. So basically deciding whether to farm for xis runes or great runes or farm areas that drop SUs (whichever good gear drops, I'll try out subsequently).
