Diablo 2: Resurrected items and quest item locations guide

Diablo 2: Resurrected constantly gives you an avalanche of items as you play. Most of the items you’ll collect are gear or potions of varying quality or rarity, while others are quest-specific items you’ll need to progress. Knowing what’s what will save you a lot of time and space in your inventory.

In this Diablo 2 items and quest items guide, we’ll teach you all about items and their rarities, and help you find the locations of all quest items.

Diablo 2 item types

You’ll find the following items everywhere:

• Weapons are self-explanatory. This includes all of the melee, ranged, and throwing weapons, including some that are class specific.
• Armor and other wearables for your character’s head, chest, hands, feet, belt, two rings, one amulet, and any shield you want to equip.
• Tomes and scrolls are magic items any class can use. These are Scrolls of Identify and Town Portal. A tome holds 20 scrolls, saving you a ton of space in your inventory.
• Potions cover healing, mana, rejuvenation, and stamina potions, as well as offensive (thrown) potions like strangling gas or fulminating potions.
• Gems, jewels, and runes are buffs that get socketed into weapons or armor.

Diablo 2 rarities

Items in Diablo 2 have a few overlapping rarities associated with them.

First is quality:

• Low quality items are described as crude, cracked, or damaged. These items have slightly reduced stats.
• Normal quality items are exactly what they say they are.
• Rare items are even better versions of normal quality items.

On top of quality, you’ll also find magic items — items that have additional stats like fire resistance or lightning damage.

• Magic items are the basic version of these.
• Rare items have additional qualities beyond regular magic items.
