Gloves are a type of Armor in Diablo 4. Gloves provide significant defensive bonuses to the player. These Gloves occupy the hand slot in the player's inventory when equipped and are an essential piece of equipment for any character looking to increase their defense. Gloves can be found in different rarities, with each rarity providing different levels of defensive bonuses. Depending on their rarity, Gloves can also have random or unique modifiers that greatly increase the player's capabilities, such as increased damage, critical hit chance, or faster attack speed. Like other types of Equipment, Gloves can also have sockets that allow the player to insert Gems to further enhance the item's properties.
Rarities
As you journey through Diablo 4, you'll encounter items with varying degrees of rarity, including Common, Magic, Rare, Legendary, and Unique. Typically, these items are influenced by your character's level progression, with Common and Magic items dropping less frequently than rare and Legendary as you level up. Unique items, on the other hand, are extremely rare and are considered to be some of the best items in the game that you may never even find in a single season.
Common items lack additional affixes, while Magic items only have one. Rare items begin with three affixes, and Legendary items can have four. It's important to note that while lower rarity items can be traded, Legendary and Unique items are bound to your account and cannot be traded.
If you're looking to add a Legendary Aspect to your item, it must have a Rare or Legendary rarity. When you imprint a Rare item, it upgrades to a Legendary rarity and becomes bound to your account. Legendary items that you pick up as loot always have a Legendary Aspect attached to them. Unique items, as the name implies, are unique in that they possess special effects that cannot be altered or overwritten.
Types of Rarities
- Common: Don't have additional affixes modifier
- Magic: They provide 1 additional affix modifier
- Rare: They provide 3 extra affixes modifiers
- Legendary: They provide 4 affixes modifiers
- Unique: Have special effects that cannot be modified or overwritten.
Powers or Affixes
These stats can appear as affixes, such as +15 Angelic Power. These stats also act as pre-requisites for empowering certain other affixes. If you don’t have enough of a specific power, you can still equip the item, but you may not benefit from an affix linked to that power.
- Angelic Power:, Which increases the duration of all beneficial effects (like self-buffs or healing)
- Demonic Power:, Which increases the duration of all negative effects (like debuffs or damage over time)
- Ancestral Power: Which increases the chance of on-hit effects (aka increased proc chance)
