Sacred 2:Item Modifiers

Notes

• Item Modifiers are the special properties that appear, in various colors, on the many Items of Sacred 2. Many Skills and Combat Arts also offer some of the same modifiers listed here.

• Players may see the same modifier multiple times on this page. Modifiers are calculated in this order: White, Blue, Yellow, Gold. These colors simply refer to the color of the text. This is important when considering modifiers with the same name but with different colors. For example, Absorption Warding Energy can appear as both a White and a Blue modifier. If the player has items giving a White value of +20% and a Blue value of +20%, they are not simply added together. The Blue value is applied to the White value (20% of 20 = 4), making the final bonus the player receives +24%.
