Charm
Charm is an item class of trinkets that function somewhat similarly to utility flasks. Charms gain charges from killing monsters or refilling at wells and will trigger automatically to grant defensive bonuses or immunities to negative status effects.
Mechanics
Charms cannot be activated manually. While a charm has sufficient charges, it is used automatically when it meets the conditions specified by its implicit modifier. When used, they will grant its effect for the listed charm duration. It cannot be reused until the duration expires.
If two charms of the same type are equipped, meeting the activation requirements will only activate one charm at a time. Different charm types can activate simultaneously.
Charms gain charges from killing monsters, using the Well, or activating a checkpoint, the same way flasks do. Charms can also roll a modifier that grants a small number of charges each second. Unequipping a charm will remove all charges on the charm.
Charm slots are primarily granted by belts, which grant one to three charm slots when equipped, indicated by its implicit mod. Additional charm slots can also be obtained from certain passive skills and belt explicit mods. You can have up to 3 charm slots equipped at a time.
The number of charm slots a belt can provide depend on its item level:
Item Level | Charm slots |
---|---|
1-29 | 1 |
30-59 | 1-2 |
60+ | 1-3 |
Charms can only be normal, magic or unique. There are no rare charms.
Quality on charms increases the duration of the charm's effect by the quality percentage. Currently, there are no crafting items that increase charm quality, therefore the only way to obtain charms with quality is via random drops.
