Because they are ''unique''. And we don't mean that the way "rare" in most MMORPGs means "about half a million top-players have it", but in that each and every item exists exactly <b>once</b>(*).

The contents on this page discuss a possible new feature. It may or may not be ever included in the game, and it may or may not be partially in testing somewhere (usually on the testing branch).
In short, consider this page is a sketchpad of sorts and don't rely too much on things written here until this notice disappears.

Feel free to add to this page as more details about unique items are found out...


Overview

Unique items are legendary and/or mysterious items of history and power. They bring prestige to whoever manages to secure them for himself, because they are so rare and whoever owns one must be powerful.


Condition

These items have a condition - they deteriorate. Only adventurers can repair them by taking them to a sage.


Why are Unique Items Valuable ?

Because they are unique. And we don't mean that the way "rare" in most MMORPGs means "about half a million top-players have it", but in that each and every item exists exactly once(*). So if you want to be the owner of the Big Book of Bugfixing, then the only way to get it is to find the current owner and make him part with it. There is absolutely no way to find a second one. See, "unique" means exactly what the dictionary definition makes you think it means.


(*) Well, per island.
