Spending[ | ]

Armourer's Scraps are most commonly used to increase the quality of armour equipment. As with other quality-increasing currency, consuming an Armourer's Scrap improves the quality of normal items by 5%, magic items by 2%, and rare and unique items by 1%. The defence values of the armour are improved by the percentage quality, additive with any local defense modifiers on the item.

Quality on armours is also used to improve the chance of gaining sockets or links on an item using an Jeweller's Orb inventory iconJeweller's OrbJeweller's OrbStack Size: 20Reforges the number of sockets on an itemRight click this item then left click a socketed item to apply it.
