Items are ingame objects that can be picked up and placed into the character's Inventory. Examples of items include equipment, currency, flasks, jewels, skill gems, and waystones.

Items have a rarity:

  • normal
  • magic
  • rare
  • unique

Items can also have a quality by being enhanced with various currencies.

Items of magic rarity and above generally drop unidentified. They can be identified by using a Scroll of WisdomScroll of WisdomStack Size: 40Identifies an itemRight click this item then left click an unidentified item to apply it. or by bringing them to NPCs with that functionality, like The Hooded One or Doryani.

Item level

Many types of item have an item level. This determines what mods can appear on the item.

Items from chests and other non-monster sources will drop at the area level. Items from monsters will usually drop at a drop level equal to the monster level, which itself usually is equal to the area level. However, drop level can be increased in certain ways:

  • Items dropped by rare monsters have +1 to item level
  • Items dropped by unique monsters have +2 to item level
  • Maps that are Irradiated grant +1 monster level to all monsters in the area
  • Maps with Coalesced Corruption or cleansed maps can have a modifier that grant +1 monster level to all monsters in the area

Drop level

Most items have a drop level, which indicates the minimum area level or monster level required for an item to be eligible to drop. Stronger base types generally have a higher drop level. For equipment, the drop level usually matches the base item's required level, though there are some exceptions.

Exceptional items

Item level 78+ normal and unique items (including boss-exclusive drops) have a chance to drop as an "Exceptional" item. Exceptional items have either over 20% quality (up to 30%) or an additional item socket. These outcomes are mutually exclusive.
