Ancient, Black Mist and Divine Equipment
Ancient and Black Mist items are Legendary items from level 70 enemies, level 70 treasure chests and Mystery items bought at player level 70; Divine items come from a roll of their own at level 70 on Inferno, for Mystery items once Inferno is unlocked.
Ancient and Black Mist
A Legendary item (not Back) dropped by a level 70 enemy or found in a level 70 treasure chest has a 10% chance to be Ancient. On Nightmare and Inferno the Black Mist roll comes first, so the Ancient share there is 9.98%. An Ancient item costs twice the gold to upgrade and sells for twice the gold.
The same items have a 0.2% chance to be Black Mist on Nightmare and Inferno; a Black Mist item is never also Ancient.
A Black Mist item requires level 70, carries 7 hidden attributes revealed by Lady "Shadow" and stays tradable until its mists are revealed.
Divine
Every item roll of an elite, mini-boss or boss encounter of level 70 on Inferno first tries a Divine roll: the chance below, x (1 + 0.3 x Item Find) and x the stage bonus.
| Encounter | Chance per roll |
|---|---|
| Elites | 0.0003% |
| Mini-bosses and bosses | 0.001% |
| Mythic Rift bosses | 0.002% |
Each item in a treasure chest of level 70 opened on Inferno has its own Divine roll, x (1 + 0.3 x Item Find). A Divine Back item is picked 10 times less often than another Divine item. Divine equipment can be traded.
At player level 70 a Legendary Mystery item has a 0.2% chance to be Black Mist once Nightmare is unlocked; if it is not Black Mist, it has a 10% chance to be Ancient.
At player level 70, once Inferno is unlocked, a Mystery item first tries a Divine roll: 0.007% x (1 + 0.3 x Item Find).
Lady "Shadow"
So, you've made it to Nightmare. From now on, Legendary gear may emerge shrouded in Black Mist, both out in the world and among my wares. Bring such pieces to me; I know how to lift the mist.
Inferno... few ever come this far. Here, Divine equipment can finally be found, both out in the world and among my wares. Guard such a treasure well.
Black Mist equipment is a powerful, customizable Legendary with the highest attribute values. It carries 7 hidden attributes - clear the mist on each one to uncover two choices, then pick the one you want to apply to the equipment.
Drop chances are the game's rules for offline characters; the game server decides the loot of online characters.
