Inventory Mechanics

Buying requires an idle character within 2.4 yd of a merchant. Selling and buyback work within 2 yd. Purchases cost gold or the specified token. The full quantity must fit in inventory. Buying a pack puts its contents directly in inventory.

Damaged equipment sells for less.

Find your item through the item list and use its item page's Buy Price for the purchase calculation.

Selling augmented gear triggers a warning. Remove an augment you want to keep before selling the equipment. Augment removal needs room in your inventory for the returned augment.

You can buy back up to 20 recently sold stacks for 10 minutes. Any trading merchant can sell a stack back for the gold you received. The entire stack must fit in inventory. New sales push out the oldest entries.

Only repair merchants restore damaged equipment. They repair equipped and carried gear and active mercenary equipment, one item at a time.

Repair All fixes your equipped gear and your active mercenaries' gear at once, for the total of the single repair prices. It skips carried gear and does not work in combat.

• Switching applies saved choices to all 16 equipment slots.
• Template 1 starts out holding the gear your character was created with.
• Changing gear updates your active template automatically. Unlocking another template copies your current gear and activates the new template.
• Switching uses equipped and carried gear, including unlocked backpack storage slots. It cannot retrieve items from the bank or a house chest. Attached augments must match the saved choice.
• Missing or unusable saved items leave their equipment slots empty.
• You cannot switch to a template that pairs a two-handed weapon with an off-hand item, or if the gear you take off will not fit in your inventory.
• Templates belong to one character and do not carry across your other characters.

You have 16 equipment slots. Most gear has 10 durability points. The Rusty Pickaxe also has 10, and other pickaxes have 20 to 250.

Each equipped item loses 1 durability point when you die: 10% on most gear. Death and Remains explains what happens to carried items.

On a successful hit, an armor-breaking skill can select one of your 16 equipment slots at random. If it holds unbroken gear, that item loses 1 to 4 durability points. Mercenary gear can lose durability the same way.

Skills with this effect (chance per successful hit to select a slot): Dragon Lava Breath (75%), Golden Dragon Breath (50%), Ruinforge (100%), Ruinous Flameburst (100%), Velkrax Breath (50%).

At zero durability, gear stays equipped but provides no equipment or attached augment bonuses. It stops counting toward armor set bonuses.

A Magic, Epic, or Legendary Repair Kit restores equipped items of its quality or lower to full durability. Target your own mercenary to repair that mercenary instead. A kit remains unused if none of the equipped gear it can repair is damaged. Repair kits require the same 1-second cast as other scrolls. See scroll casting.

Kits do not repair inventory tools. A broken pickaxe cannot mine until you repair it at a repair merchant.

Merchant repairs cover carried gear and show the repair price.

The pieces must belong to the same named set. Broken and unequipped pieces do not count toward the 3- and 5-piece bonuses.

Mercenary armor sets grant only the three-piece attribute bonus. See mercenary equipment.

Potions restore resources or apply buffs. Food and drink apply buffs. Spell scrolls activate a skill without teaching it.

Skill scrolls can raise Scroll Mastery. To find the casting rank, divide your Scroll Mastery percentage by 5 and round to the nearest whole number. The minimum is rank 1 and the maximum is the skill's highest rank.

Most scrolls take 1 second to cast, and starting one cancels the skill you are casting and any queued skills. A few, such as the Skyflare firework, work instantly and leave your current cast alone. A scroll uses a charge, starts its cooldown, and ends invisibility only when it works, so an interrupted scroll costs nothing. Scrolls with unlimited charges never run out.

Moving, losing your target, starting a skill, changing or removing the casting item, stun, fear, death, trading, or cancelling the action interrupts the cast. Selecting another target does not: the scroll still lands on the target you had when the cast began. A skill scroll needs a valid target at both the start and completion. The Scroll of Binding and bind spells such as Bind Affinity cannot be used in dungeons. The Gate Scroll works in dungeons except the Temple of Valaark.

Using a recipe item consumes it and teaches its potion recipe. You cannot use a recipe you already know. Crafting materials need a matching recipe at a station. See crafting.

Items that share a cooldown cannot be used until that cooldown ends. Otherwise, each item has its own cooldown. Using an item removes invisibility.

Ordinary food replaces your current ordinary food buff, and a drink buff replaces your current drink buff. An attribute or resistance potion replaces the potion buff for that same attribute or resistance.

Elixir of the Wildstride does not work inside dungeons, and trying to drink it there ends invisibility.

No-Trade, Cannot sell, and No-Destroy are separate restrictions on trading with players, selling to merchants, and destroying an item. A merchant might buy an item that you cannot trade to another player.
