Rares are actually the most common item found when at the highest character level. Although these items are rare, as the name implies, at low character levels, they become more common as the player progresses. They can have a differing number of sockets depending on the slot type. Originally, they required identification, like in Diablo II, but as of the pre-expansion patch, they are already identified when they drop. Rares can have four to six magical properties, with the exception of guaranteed off-hand item damage bonus (which is a part of the item's own properties, not affixes). They are often overshadowed in the expansion due to the variety of powerful rune words and uniques, but particularly good rares can often compete with the best uniques.ĭiablo II: Resurrected Review - Pile Of Old Bones In Diablo II Classic, rare items were potentially some of the best items in the game. Each rare item may only have a single Socket. However, a prefix and a suffix with the same effect are possible. This means you can't get two prefixes or two suffixes that do the same thing on one item. A Rare item cannot have more than one prefix or suffix from the same group (a set of prefixes or suffixes that have the same effect, in progressively larger amounts).
A single prefix or suffix can't be picked more than once. ( Jewels can only have two of each, instead of three). One Rare item can't have more than 3 prefixes or 3 suffixes. However, it randomly picks each one, with a 50/50 chance of it being a prefix or a suffix. Some Rare items can also be found Socketed upon Identifying them if they receive the Mechanic's prefix. Affixes are selected by the game for Rare items in the same manner as Magic items. Note that it has seven attributes, this is because one of its suffixes is Light which boosts light radius and attack rating.
