Equipment refers to items that can be placed directly into equipment slots on the character's inventory screen. These include weapons, off-hands, armour, and jewellery.
Equipping items
An item is equipped when placed into a compatible equipment slot on the character's inventory screen and the item or slot is not disabled. To equip an item, the character must meet or exceed the level and/or attribute requirements present on that item. If the character's level or attributes fall below the requirement at any point, the item will become disabled, causing the equipment slot to turn red, until the requirements are met again. Disabled items are no longer considered equipped, and any bonuses and effects granted by them (including from runes and Soul cores) are also disabled. Certain items can also disable specific item slots instead, causing any item placed within them to be disabled.
If a character's weapon is empty or disabled (or both weapons if dual wielding), they are considered unarmed.
The term equipped item specifically only include weapons, off-hands, armour, and jewellery. Items like flasks also have dedicated slots on the inventory screen, but are not technically considered equipped items. Socketable items like runes and Soul cores are also not considered equipped items.
Restrictions
Equipment cannot be changed around while in a fight against a boss.
