PoE One of A Kind

One of a Kind

Equip a Unique item.

Items, monsters, strongboxes, and later even maps, can all have different rarities. Something’s rarity determines what properties it has. Generally, something that is ‘magic’ is stronger than something that is ‘normal’, and something that is ‘rare’ is stronger than something that is ‘magic’. This is achieved through random modifiers, or ‘mods’.

Normal, Magic, Rare and Unique rarities are indicated by the color of the name. The item colors are:

  • white = normal
  • blue = magic
  • yellow = rare
  • orange = unique

Rarity determines how many mods something can have. Magic rarity typically imbues something with either one or two mods, while most rares can get up to six.
