This is the mechanic by which the items are generated in Imperial Hero.
There are 4 types* of items in the game and they are graded as follows:
Common
Rare
Legendary
Epic
*The fifth type of item is the set item, but sets will be explained later.
Common items are the most abundant, the epic ones are the rarest and, of course, the most powerful.
So, there are rules by witch those items are generated and those rules are, as follow:
1. Common items do not possess modifiers and have stats which imply for the consecutive Tier.
2. Rare items have 10%-20% better stats than the common ones in the consecutive Tier and possess 1 modifier*, which gives bonuses within the boundaries of the Tier.
3. Legendary items have 20%-40% better stats than the common ones in the consecutive Tier and possess 2 modifiers, which gives bonuses within the boundaries of the Tier..
4. Epic items have 40%-80% better stats than the common ones in the consecutive Tier and possess 4 modifiers, which gives bonuses within the boundaries of the Tier.
*Jewels possess 1 modifier by default, so they are considered rare by default. Epic Jewels possess 5 modifiers.
