Item affixes in Diablo 4

How do Diablo 4 affixes work?

Affix tiers

Diablo 4 items have 3 tiers of affixes:

• Regular affixes: found on items of all rarities, except Normal (0 affixes); account for the vast majority of affixes found on items
• Legendary affixes: 1 per Legendary item; are 2-3x more powerful than a Regular affix; can be extracted by the Occultist and stored in a Legendary Aspect for use in upgrading another item
• Unique affixes: 1 per Unique item; by far the most powerful affix; has a star icon, like Legendary

The Legendary Gloves below have 4 Regular affixes and 1 Legendary affix (star icon):

Number of affixes per item rarity

Depending on an item's rarity, an item can have between 0 and 5 affixes:
