| − | Players may occasionally succeed in creating or finding rare, [[supreme item|supreme]] or even [[fantastic item|fantastic]] items. Tools may be faster, weapons may do more damage, and armour could protect the wearer a bit better. These special items may also be made as you improve on regular items and those rare items may stand a chance to turn into a supreme or fantastic item. Constructing new items using rare materials may, albeit a very small chance, turn the unfinished item into a rare item. Consuming a rare material when improving has a 1/100 possibility to transfer rarity.

| − | A "drum-roll" and visual cue appears when your chance to create or generate a rare item arises. The visual cue is a green halo which will surround the border of the screen, lasting a fraction of a second.

| |
| − | [[Sacrificing]] rare items at an [[altar]] has a high chance to provide 99% [[nutrition]], [[water]] and [[food]]. There is also a chance that sacrificing one of these items will heal you should you be wounded.

| − | ===General observations===
| |
| − | Rare tools typically receive 10% less [[damage]] during use and provide a small speed boost to action timers, of around 0.1 second. If they're being used to extract raw materials or to create new items (e.g. [[hatchet]], [[shovel]] or [[anvil]]) then there is a chance that the [[quality]] cap for the by-product will be 1 point higher than if a standard item was used. For example, if using a [[pickaxe]] on a [[silver vein]] then you may receive [[ore]] which is one point in quality above your own standard cap.
| |
| − | | |
| − | [[Enchantment]]s appear to decrease less over time, and with use, [[lockpick]]s don't break so often and [[fishing rod]]s may catch more rare [[fish]]. The general idea is that whatever the standard item does the rare, supreme or fantastic item does it better. [[Gem]]s store more [[favour]], [[healing]] items give better effects and [[lamp]]s glow brighter.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Looking at [[weapon]]s, these tend to hit harder and faster, while [[armour]] and [[shields]] protect more and takes less damage. [[:Category:Vehicle|Vehicle]]s may travel faster, up to 0.72km/h, and [[container]]s are harder to [[pick]]. Animal equipment aids with speed boosts (also up to 0.72km/h).

| − | ==Notes==
| |
| − | *Items have a subtle pulsating graphical effect. The pulsating graphic effect is also different colors depending on the rarity: rare items are white, supreme are blue, and fantastic items are gold.
| |
| − | *Items sometimes create their own item tree in inventory lists. Keep an eye out for those which don't!
| |
| − | *Some items have a chance to retain their rarity when [[Combine|combining]] with other non-rare items.
| |
| − | *Rare materials may not be put in a [[bulk storage bin]] or [[food storage bin]].
| |
| − | *All types of item can become 'rare', but not all of them have advantages.
| |
| − | *Using a rare or supreme [[bow string]] to string a bow makes it lose the status and become a normal bow string.

| − | ==Developer comments==
| |
| − | * When rare items were introduced players were told "You get approximately 1 chance of 50% each hour to create a rare item." What this actually means to game play is unknown. The odds of creating a rare seem to be much higher than improving an item and making it rare.
| |
| − | * 14th January 2014, Rolf: There is already a chance that using rare materials transfer to the thing you create or improve. Consuming a rare material when improving has a 1/100 possibility to transfer rarity. When improving or polishing a drum roll doesn't always mean rarity. The window is 20 seconds plus up to 10 of village faith creation bonus.
