New to World of Warcraft? This guide will explain the basics of items—-the different types, which to hold onto, and what all the text on an item tooltip means.
What is an Item?
An item is a possession that the player owns. These items can be stored in a backpack, bank, or void storage. A subset of items, gear, can be equipped on the player and has a unique appearance everyone nearby will see.
There are many different categories of items:
Weapons
: Held in character’s hands, these offer substantial increases to player power, and in the case of melee, greatly affect the amount of damage a player deals.
Armor
: Armor serves two purposes as clothing in World of Warcraft. Each piece of armor increases your character’s power by added stats, and in some cases like trinkets, additional bonus effects. Each armor piece also has unique visuals and many players enjoy finding matching pieces of armor to express their personality.
Containers
: Players can acquire additional bags to store their new items. Many bags are multi-purpose, but some are specific to professions. For example,
上蜡铭文包
is roomier than your average bag, but only holds Inscription items.
Consumables
: These types of items temporarily buff a player, such as
Flasks to increase a stat for a few hours
,
food to regain your health
, and
enchants to give your weapon additional effects
. These items are usually made by players that have trained in a specific profession, and can be traded or bought on the Auction House.
Glyphs
: A glyph is a scroll that enhances certain abilities, either giving them additional utility or a cosmetic effect like changing the color of a spell.
Trade Goods
: You will need these items to create consumables, whether it’s
meat
for food that buffs your stats,
herbs
for Alchemy potions, or
leather
for Armor.
Recipes
: When players learn a profession, they discover how to craft items via recipes. Recipes can be acquired many different ways—several popular sources are trainers, bosses, and reputation grinds.
Gems
: At higher levels, players can socket gems into their gear. Gems with stronger stat gains are available as players level up.
Mounts
: Many players love collecting mounts, adding to their collection totals.
Pets
: Some battle pets can be captured directly in the world, but others are found as items from bosses, vendors, etc. Clicking on the pet item will teach you the pet permanently.
Quest
: When completing a quest, sometimes you will be required to loot a specific item. These items will not take up bag space when you acquire them.
Item Tooltips and Terms
An item’s tooltip reveals many useful details about an item.
Quality
: The name of an item will be in a certain color: Poor, Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, Legendary. These colors roughly show how important and useful an item is.
Item Level
: This increases the overall level of your gear. As you level up and look for groups for challenging content, some leaders may require your item level to be above a certain number to prove you are not undergeared for the content.
Bind Information
: Items can have the following bind types:
Bind on Equip: These items refer to gear which can be traded or sold on the AH until a character equips it.
Binds when Used: These items cover some toys, pets, and mounts which can be traded or bought until someone learns the item.
Binds to Account: Commonly referred to as
heirlooms
, these items can be passed around all characters on your account, including gear that is already worn.
Binds when Picked Up: This is what most equippable gear is classified as—an item you acquire (questing, a boss, crafting)-with the specific intent you’ll use it. When you have no more need for the item, you can sell or Disenchant it, or hold onto it in your bags for its visual appearance.
Restrictions
: Sometimes an item will list additional restrictions, like 3 crafting items, or a profession requirement. Other items can only be equipped by a certain class, for example a piece of armor that boosts an ability only one class has.
Stats and Effects
: This part of the tooltip will show the stats you will gain by equipping an item or using a consumable. For gear, if you mouse over an item’s tooltip, it will automatically compare that item to your equipped item to show gains and loses.
Level Requirement
: This shows what level your character must be to equip something. If you are too low-level to equip something, you can hold onto it in your bags until you are old enough to use it.
Flavor Text
: Only a handful of items have flavor text. This does not add anything to an item, but denotes it has some special place in the game’s lore and reveals a little about the item’s previous history.
Acquiring Items
Items can be acquired many ways:
Achievement
: These items are rare and special, they are rewards for completing a large amount of content.
Black Market Auction House
: Very rare, or otherwise unobtainable items, are sometimes randomly put on the BMAH. Players can outbid each other, spending large amounts of money, to win these coveted items.
Crafted
: These items come from players who have learned a specific profession.
Drop
: This encompasses the widest range of items, basically everything you can loot as you’re playing WoW. At higher levels, specific useful items drop from NPCs in dungeons and raids, and many players will re-run an instance to acquire a particular item.
Event
: A handful of items are related to participating in an in game event, like WoW’s Anniversary.
In-Game Shop
: Some items can be purchased with real money, such as distinctive mounts and pets. We have a
guide to how to purchase items and what all the options are
.
Missions
: High-level players with access to the Warlords Garrison or Legion Order Hall can complete missions that reward items.
PvP
: Items aimed at Player-vs-Player combat are rewards from either PvP vendors or from loot boxes rewarded after winning.
Quest
: These items are automatically rewarded when you finish a quest.
Redemption
: A handful of items are expensive rewards for things like buying a Collector’s Edition or watching BlizzCon on the Virtual Ticket. Another type of redemption item is
Trading Card Loot
, items that were part of the now-defunct TCG and have distinctive appearances and silly effects.
Starter
: These items are the very basics that you will have when you create a new character in WoW.
Vendor
: Items can be purchased from vendors by clicking on the NPC, and then clicking on the item you want to buy. Many vendors are simply there for flavor, but some vendors sell useful items. For example, a cooking vendor in a capital city may sell you a recipe unique to that culture.
You can set your loot options to Auto Loot in Game Menu > Interface > Controls.
Storing Items
When you acquire an item, it automatically will go into your bag. If you have no bag space, you will receive an error message that your bags are full.
Once you have bag space, you can loot the new item again. Sometimes you will find the item mailed to you if your bags are full.
There are ways to increase your bag space if you want to hold onto many things:
Find bags that have more bag slots. We have two guides about bags, the
comprehensive Big Bag guide
, and an
overview of the easiest bags to get
Buy additional slots for your bank, and put a large-sized bag in each slot. Banks can be accessed in all major cities. A bank starts off with 28 slots for free, and seven additional slots can be purchased for total.
Utilize the Reagents bank tab for your profession-related materials. This special bank tab has 60 slots and costs to unlock. Hit the "Deposit All Reagents" button to automatically clean up your bags.
If you have extra money, spend some gold to put infrequently-used items in Void Storage. Each item costs to deposit. Void Storage has 160 slots total across two tabs. However, there are some restrictions on Void Storage items—-they cannot be BoE, stacked items, or consumables, plus storing them will remove all enchants, gems, and other enhancements. Accessing your Void Storage can only be done in Orgrimmar, Stormwind, Mists of Pandaria, and Warlords capital cities.
Create a “bank alt” designed to hold onto miscellaneous items.
Blizzard has automatic built-in storage for some vanity collections: Mounts, Pets, Toys, and Heirlooms. Click on "Shift-P" to open up the collection tab. From there, you can click on an item to summon or use it. These items are mostly just-for-fun and we have guides to each type of collection: the
Warlords Mount Guide
,
Toy Box Guide
,
Heirloom List
, and
Battle Pet Guides
. The in-game collection tab has additional information on these types of items, such as their source and attributes.
Getting Rid of Items
There are several ways to get rid of items you do not want.
Delete
: Delete an item by clicking on it, then clicking on the center of your screen. If the item is of a good quality, you will have to type “Delete” when prompted to verify you want to delete the useful item. Deleting an item should be a last resort, as you do not get any gold for removing the item this way.
Sell to Vendor
: This is a safer way to handle junk items you do not want. You can go up to a merchant NPC, click on their “Sell” tab and then right-click on items you do not want. As each item is sold, you will gain small amounts of gold. The junk items in your bag will have little gold icons in the corner, indicating they have no real purpose other than to be sold. It is still worth looting and selling trash, vs completely ignoring it, as some items reward a decent amount of gold like
罗波的牧人之杖
.
Mail
: You can mail items to anyone on your realm (same faction) or any of your characters on your account.
Trade
: If you have a friend that needs a particular item, go up to that player, click on their portrait, and select the Trade option. Drag the item into the window that opens up so they can accept the trade.
Auction House
: If an item seems particularly valuable, you can list it on the AH in a major city. For example, a BoE piece of gear with a unique model or a rare profession material you have no use for. Use the Auction House UI to see if other people have listed the same item, to get a sense of how rare your item is and how you should price it.
Disenchant
:
Enchanters
have the option to shard useful items for crafting materials, which are then used to craft powerful enchants. High-level players in Warlords of Draenor can build an
Enchanter's Study
and use it to disenchant items, even if they do not have the profession.
Gear Basics and Stats
Gear
is a subset of items that your character can wear. This gear has two purposes: to affect the appearance of your character, and to strengthen your character’s power.
For information on item appearances and how to alter the appearance of your gear, please visit our
Transmogrification Tools Overview
and
Transmog Guide section
.
At low levels, you do not need to worry too much about the stats on your gear. Pick the gear that has your primary stat, and equip any item you come across that has more of that primary stat.
Agility
: Feral and Guardian Druid, Hunters, Brewmaster and Windwalker Monk, Rogues, Enhancement Shaman
Strength
: Warriors, Protection and Retribution Paladin, Death Knights
Intellect
: Mage, Priest, Warlock, Elemental and Restoration Shaman, Balance and Restoration Druid, Holy Paladin, Mistweaver Monk
Additional stats include Critical Strike, Mastery, Stamina, and Versatility. These are not as important as making sure you equip an item with the right primary stat.
The class you choose affects the type of armor that is optimal:
Cloth - Priest, Mage, Warlock
Leather - Rogue, Druid, Monk, Demon Hunter
Mail - Hunter, Shaman
Plate - Warrior, Paladin, Death Knight
Classes can wear armor a tier below their optimal one, but it is considered subpar.
The class you choose also affects the types of weapons you can equip:
Druid: Daggers, one-handed maces, two-handed maces, fist weapons, polearms, and staves
Hunter: Bows, crossbows, and guns
Mage: Daggers, one-handed swords, staves, and wands
Monk: Fist Weapons, one-handed axes, one-handed maces, one-handed swords, Polearms, and Staves
Paladin: one-handed axes, one-handed maces, two-handed maces, one-handed swords, shields, and off-hands. For Protection and Holy Paladins, it is optimal to use a shield.
Priest: daggers, one-handed maces, staves, and wands
Rogue: daggers, fist weapons, one-handed axes, maces, and swords. For Assassination Rogues, it is optimal to use daggers.
Shaman: daggers, staves, shields, fist weapons, maces, and axes
Warlock: daggers, one-handed swords, staves, and wands
Warrior: shields, daggers, fist weapons, one-handed axes, maces and swords, two-handed axes, maces, and swords, polearms, and staves. For Protection Warriors, it is optional to use a shield.
Loot Specialization
As you level up, the types of gear you acquire will matter more for your specialization. You can right-click on your character portrait to set your Loot Specialization. You can set your Loot Specialization to a different spec than your current one, if you are interested in collecting off-spec loot.
By pre-selecting a loot specialization, all items acquired from questing, Bonus Rolls, and LFR will be suited to your specialization. This will also affect what you can roll /Need or /Greed on in group content.

Information should be added to let new players know that the class you choose not only effects which weapons you can utilize, it effects the types of armor you can equip as well.
Cloth - Priest, Mage, Warlock
Leather - Rogue, Druid, Hunter, Shaman, Monk
Mail - Warrior, Paladin, Hunter (startingnat level 40) Shaman (starting at level 40)
Plate - Warrior (starting at level 40) Paladin (starting at level 40} Death Knight
Classes can wear any tier of armor that falls below their own.
Note: When the pre-patch for Legion is released, Hunter and Shaman will be able to wear mail at level 1 and Warrior and Paladin will be able to wear plate at level 1.

Thanks! As a newbie, I find this guide really helpful. One suggestion -- you mention that the name of the item will be in a certain color to indicate its quality level, but you don't say what those colors are.
