Items

Commodities are what you trade. Items are what you wear, carry and use: boots, cloaks, ledgers, a waterskin, a whip. They give a small, real edge, and a better quality of the same item gives a bigger one.

Quality

Every item has a quality tier, and the numbers below are for Common quality.

  • Common
  • Uncommon
  • Rare
  • Epic
  • Legendary

Wearing them

An item goes in a slot on your character: a hand, your feet, your body, your pack and so on, and some go on your animals. Put one on from the Character window; double-click it in your backpack. Some need a character level, shown below.
