A base item is for example a normal rarity Vaal Regalia or Jagged Foil. On most rare items, the maximum number of suffixes is three, while the maximum number of prefixes is also three, for a total maximum of six explicit mods.Ĭrafting is done on a base item - they might not look like much, but some are worth a lot or are very hard to come by. Depending on the base of the item the maximum number of explicit modifiers varies. There are two types of explicit mods: Prefixes and Suffixes. Generally, these are the most important modifiers and determine whether an item is worth using. They are visually presented under the implicit mods.

Explicits: These are the mods that you can roll on an item using currency like the chaos orb and other means.So, in most cases you are stuck with your implicit. They cannot be removed or changed out for another implicit, except with a vaal orb, which is likely to destroy your item. For example, the Rustic Sash has a (12-24)% increased Global Physical Damage implicit modifier. Implicits: These mods are tied to the base of the item.Having a solid plan and improving your odds are the two keys to success in the world of crafting.įirst off, there can be two types of modifiers (mods) on an item. There is a method to the madness though! In this game, you can't beat the odds by sheer willpower. It is mostly gambling, the ways to specifically target a specific item are very limited so crafting will more often give you a good result for someone else than for you. You really need persistence and strong fingers to withstand the endless torrent of bad luck this game can throw at you. The outcomes are going to be wildly different each time and, since Wraeclast is an inhospitable place the outcomes will probably be quite bad.

Crafting in Path of Exile is mostly done by using orbs on non-unique items.
