● Normal Items (Grey): They only have the value of being broken down into materials.
● Magic Items (Blue): With few affixes, it can be used early in the game and can be replaced by rare items later in the game. You can break down some of them to get materials.
● Rare Items (Gold): Rares originally have three affixes. After reaching a certain item level, they will have four affixes. You can collect Rares with perfect affixes. A rare item with perfect affixes and a high item level can be sold for a very high price in the early stages of the game.
● Legendary Items (Orange): Legendaries (not tradeable) have 4 Affixes. Even at low levels, they can be disenchanted for either crafting materials or extracting Aspects. Aspects are special effects that count as a 5th affix if you want. You can have only 1 Aspect per legendary item.
● Sacred & Ancestral Items (Silver & Gold): They are advanced versions of common gear pieces (dropped at levels 1-50). Since they only drop on higher difficulties, they are essentially new item tiers. Sacred Items start dropping on World Tier 3, while Ancestral Items only appear on World Tier 4.
● Unique Items (Purple): Uniques are the highest level and rarest items in Diablo 4. Some uniques can provide you with powerful effects, and some can completely change the way you play character builds.
● Uber Uniques: The drop rate of Uber Uniques is as low as 1 in 1,000. Since Uber Uniques only drop from enemies level 85 or above, you may need to be at or above that level to have a chance of defeating the enemy and getting Uber Uniques.
● Nightmare Sigils: The sources of Nightmare Sigils are mainly bounty missions, Nightmare Dungeon drops, and synthesis. You can use Nightmare Sigils to strengthen their corresponding dungeons. Later, these strengthened dungeons will provide stronger monsters, as well as more gold and gear based on affixes.
● Aspects: Aspects are items that can be equipped on a character. They can provide some additional effects, such as increasing the damage of a certain attribute or skill. Aspects come in different types and levels, and each character can equip up to two Aspects. Aspects can be earned by completing specific tasks or events.
● Gems: Gems can be inserted into slotted weapons or armor to add additional attributes or effects. Gems come in different colors and shapes, and each gem has a different effect (such as increasing attack speed or reducing skill cooldowns). Gems can be crafted or disassembled to increase or decrease their level.
● Currency: There are various forms of currency in Diablo 4, including Murmuring Obols that can only be used at the Purveyor of Curiosities, Red Rust that can only be obtained in PvP zones, Platinum used to purchase cosmetics, Smoldering Ashes used to purchase Season Blessings, etc.
● Consumables: Consumables include items that can be used in combat, such as Elixirs to restore health or mana, scrolls to increase attributes or effects, Incense to buff yourself and team members, runes to summon allies or enemies, etc. These items usually have a limit on how many times they can be used or how long they last, and they disappear after use.
● Whisper Keys: Whisper Key is an important prop in the game, used to open treasure chests or unlock hidden rooms.
● Upgrade Materials: These are things you will definitely encounter during your journey through the game and can be used to craft new items, strengthen weapons, etc. You can get a lot of upgrade materials by completing side quests.
