You can attempt to reforge an item to potentially increase its rarity, making it more powerful. Reforging is performed on a special table using a Reforging Hammer.
Items can have dozens of attributes, with a chance for some to have negative values. This makes hunting for the right attributes an engaging process. Rarer items are less likely to have negative attributes and more likely to possess higher positive ones compared to common items. All bonuses from this system are applied in addition to enchantments and potions, further enhancing your gear.
