Diablo – How is the minimum level to equip an item determined

diablo-3

Is the minimum level of an item based on the base item type? Or is it based on the affixes that are generated? Or is it based on the underlying level of the item, which may not actually translate into any good affixes? It sometimes seems like identical items can have widely different minimum levels.

Best Answer

It's based upon the base item, which can be found in the Blizzard Game Guide . In turn, the availiable affixes and magnitude thereof are also restricted by this.
