Items can be Normal (grey), Magic (blue), Rare (yellow) or Unique (brown). Item Classes which do not have these rarities, such as Currency, have individual rarity for each item. Magic items can have 2 Modifiers; a Prefix and a Suffix. Rare items can have up to 6 Modifiers; 3 Prefixes and 3 Suffixes. More powerful and dangerous enemies are more likely to drop rarer Items.
Augments are items which can be placed into Augment sockets, usually on Equipment items. Once socketed, they can be replaced by other Augments, but cannot be removed by normal means. The types of Equipment which an Augment can be placed into and the corresponding benefit provided are listed on the item.
