Items
Every drop is a base item in a material tier with a rarity and random affixes. The base sets the dice or armour class; the material multiplies weapon dice as item level rises. You can wear an item from level item level − 4.
Materials & rarities
| Material | Item level | Weapon dice × |
|---|---|---|
| Iron | 1+ | ×1 |
| Steel | 5+ | ×1.25 |
| Mithral | 9+ | ×1.55 |
| Adamantine | 13+ | ×1.9 |
| Dragonbone | 17+ | ×2.3 |
| Starmetal | 21+ | ×2.8 |
The material's name leads the item's ("Starmetal Longsword"). Armour and shields gain +1 AC per two material tiers; the Smithy's upgrade multiplies the same base further. Drops cap at Dragonbone until the third Pyre Tier (Pyre III) — Starmetal only drops there and above.

Material tiers
What item level does
The same number shows on every item card and drives who can wear it.
One number runs the whole drop: it's the level of the foe (or chest) the item came from — plus +2 on Medium, +3 on Hard, +4 on Epic and +4 on Legendary difficulty — capped at each Pyre Tier's top level (20 on Pyre I, +10 per tier above). On Deep Charts they stack instead: the foe's level, +2 per Pyre Tier above 1, plus the difficulty bonus, uncapped up to item level 180.
- Material tier
- The highest material the level meets (see the table above) — bigger weapon dice, more armour.
- Affix strength
- Every affix rolls inside a range that grows with item level: smallest rolls at 1, the Pyre I peak at 20, and world-tier loot pushes into a higher band again.
- Rarity ceiling
- On Pyre I the drop table gates the best rarity by item level — epics from 3, legendaries from 6. From Pyre II up the cap is gone; mythic exists only from Pyre III.
- Requirement & costs
- Wearable at hero level item level − 4 (see below). Sell value and Smithy enchant prices scale with it.
Affixes
Every magic line an item can roll, the range it rolls in at item levels 1, 20 and 39 on Pyre I (each Pyre Tier above adds 15%), and its ceiling: the most one line can ever show, whatever its item level, Pyre Tier, forging, Masterwork or Smithy upgrade (a line at it carries a ⌃). Lines with a ceiling stop growing at item level 39; flat lines (health, damage, abilities, regeneration, thorns) keep growing past it, more slowly, up to item level 180. Resistances roll 65% less often than other lines, and a drop carries at most one.
Resource lines. The four trigger lines (Resource on Hit, on Crit, per Kill, per 10% Health Lost) are written for a class that regenerates 6 a second: your class gains the value × its own regen ÷ 6 (a Monk four times what a Wizard does), so a line is the same share of everyone's income. Max Resource lines scale with your class's pool the same way (× its base pool ÷ 100; lines already on your gear before this change keep their old, flat value). On hit pays a swing's first landed basic hit (extra hits 25%); on crit at most every 0.5 s; per kill ×3 for elites and bosses, ×0.5 for your summons' kills, up to 5 kills a second; when struck counts up to 6% of your health a second. All four work during the pause after you spend. Drops favour the two triggers your class fires most, and a drop carries at most 1.
Warded and Fortitude on boots are Emberforged-only: a boot drop never rolls them, but the Forge's extra line on Emberforged boots can, and so can a Smithy enchant of Emberforged boots.

Level requirements
Every item needs a hero level to wear: its item level − 4, whatever its rarity (legendaries, set pieces and uniques too). What an on-level foe drops is wearable on every difficulty; a level-1 hero can't wear endgame gear from the stash or a trade; a hero who has reached the level cap can. Sellswords follow the same rule at their own level. Higher difficulties drop items a few levels higher: see Difficulty modes.
| Item level | 1 | 5 | 8 | 10 | 12 | 16 | 20 | 24 | 30 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Requires level | 1 | 1 | 4 | 6 | 8 | 12 | 16 | 20 | 20 |
