Item Use Requirements
Many items have requirements in order to use them. The types of restrictions on items include minimum level, required proficiencies, class restrictions, and reputation requirements. If you do not meet one or more of the requirements, those requirements will display in red text in that item's tooltip.

*"Poor" items (commonly called "vendor trash") have no value outside of cash value when sold to NPC vendors.

Soulbound Items
Many items, particularly magic items, are Soulbound. An item that is soulbound is permanently bound to a specific player and cannot be transferred to another character in any way. A player can vendor, disenchant, or destroy his soulbound item, but cannot trade or sell it to another player. Items become soulbound in a variety of ways: on pickup, on creation, or when equipped. You will receive an alert indicating that the item will become soulbound by performing the relevant action.

Item Durability
Many items are subject to gradual durability loss through use. All armor and weapons have item durability, but not trinkets, cloaks, off-hand frills, shirts, tabards, amulets, and rings. An item's current and maximum durability is displayed on its tooltip. On death, all equipped items lose 10% of their current durability.

• All armor/weapon NPC vendors can repair durability for a fee. The repair fee varies depending on how damaged a given item is.
• Items remain at full effectiveness until they have zero durability. Their power does not gradually degrade.
• When an item reaches zero durability, it no longer gives the player any benefit; it acts as though it does not exist until repaired.
• Items that are broken (zero durability) can always be repaired - thus, players can never permanently lose items through durability loss.
• The 10% durability loss that affects equipped items does not occur when the cause of death is another player in PvP combat.
• If you accept a resurrection from a Spirit Healer, both your equipped items as well as items in your inventory will be affected by durability loss.
• If an item gets to low durability, a paper doll displays on your screen with the corresponding region shaded in yellow. Broken items are indicated by red shading on the paper doll
