Formally called Random Attributes, enchantments are random stat modifiers which appear on gear of Uncommon (green) rarity or higher in addition to the primary stats which always appear on the Poor (grey) and Common (white) versions.

Note that most enchants also exist as stats which are listed below and can be found directly in the Stats page.

General

Upon the item being generated, an enchantment as well as an enchantment value will be randomly selected for each enchantment slot available for that item. Which enchantments can be rolled as well as what range of values can be rolled depend on the item type as well as the enchantment itself. See #Table of Enchantment Values for all possible enchantments and enchantment values.

There are additional restrictions to which enchantments may be rolled:

  • Primary stats can't be rolled as enchantments e.g. a Padded Tunic (which always has Strength on it) cannot roll a Strength enchantment even though chests in general may do so.
  • Enchantments can't be rolled twice on the same item e.g. no item will have two Will enchantments on it.

Note that attribute names are quite specific e.g. "Move Speed" being a primary stat on boots does not prevent "Additional Move Speed" from being rolled on them as they are considered different attributes.

Generally, Uncommon items will have 1 enchantment, and the number of enchantments will increase by 1 per rarity level. Craftable gear breaks this rule, instead starting at 2 enchantments for Uncommon items and then also increasing by 1 per rarity.

Note that "nothing" is not a possible enchantment; items will always have the maximum number of enchantments possible.

Only positive values can be rolled - no zero or negative values will appear.

Each enchantment modifies just 1 stat - no hybrid enchantments or +Stat A/-Stat B enchantments exist.
