==Item Tiers==
[[File:Items (example of a purple item).jpg|thumb|right|335px|An example of an {{ItemRarity|Purple}} item. Notice the two intrinsic mods (to Inventory Slots and Sprint Speed) listed in white, and the four (due to its rarity tier) additional mods listed in green.]]
Items come in six different rarity tiers, giving them 0-5 [[Treasure Effects|mods]] (plus any intrinsic mods the base item has). Crafted gear can be crafted as "max-enchanted". Usually the max-enchanted recipe requires and additional rare gem like {{Item|Winterprize}} or {{Item|Vervadium}}. Using the max-enchanted recipe will give the item one extra mod. For example, e.g. a second-from-the-top tier item which normally has 4 mods would have 5 if max-enchanted. This allows an item to reach 6 modifiers. [[Augmentation]] (or [[Shamanic Infusion]]) can add one more to reach the upper limit of 7 (looted gear, which can't be max-enchanted can only reach 6 at most).
As can be seen on the illustration, the properties on higher tier items can make a dramatic difference to your character's potential depending which skills you specialize in, from increasing damage output, to the resilience of your pets, lowering the cost of your spells, and even increase your [[Haste|Sprint speed]]!
