Diablo I Equipment

Diablo I Standard Equipment Guide

The basic items in Diablo I form the foundation of most end-game equipment set-ups. Unlike it's predecessors, most of the best equipment in the game is not unique items, but high grade magical artifacts. Magical Prefixes and Suffixes such as "Godly, Kings, of the Whale, of the Zodiac, and of Haste" transform normal items into powerhouses that most unique items simply cannot compete with. Therefore, it is very important in the original Diablo to be familiar with the base equipment stats.
