The required level is the item level divided by 10, from 1 to 70. Ancient: 10% of its drops from level 70 enemies and chests and of Mystery items bought at player level 70 (9.98% where Black Mist comes first); twice the upgrade gold and sell price. Black Mist: 0.2% of those drops on Nightmare and Inferno and of those Mystery items once Nightmare is unlocked; requires level 70, never Ancient, tradable until its first reveal.

Frost Dragon
0.5% per cleared encounter with it, on all difficulties. Met in Veldak Highlands stage 7 (level 58 on Normal).

Legendary drops
Drops from enemies of level 10 and higher and from treasure chests they drop, only for heroes of its classes.
Mystery Shoulder
Sold for Soul Shards by Lady "Shadow", the Mystery Vendor in each town: one Shoulder of random rarity for the current hero. Online characters can buy it too, at the price the game server sets.

Enemy special drops are rolled once for every cleared encounter the enemy is part of, however many of it the encounter holds, in the places listed here. On Nightmare and Inferno every enemy in them is level 70.

Drop chances are the game's rules for offline characters; the game server decides the loot of online characters.

Before upgrades, by item level. An enemy of level E drops item level 10 x (E - 1) to 10 x E + 9 on Normal, 700 and higher on Nightmare and Inferno. Each number rolls on its own from 0.85 to 1.15 x its base. Armor = 1.6 x 0.5 x item level x the roll. An Ancient drop takes the top of every range.

Item level	Armor
100	68-92
300	204-276
500	340-460
700	476-644
850	578-782

Attribute = 1.6 x item level x its value per item level x the roll. Ranges at item level 100 and 850:

Attribute	Item level 100	Item level 850
Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence	7-9	58-78
Max Health	61-83	520-704
Magic Resist	68-92	578-782
Dodge Chance	0.7-0.9%	5.8-7.8%
Cooldown Reduction, Poison Damage Reduction, Fire Damage Reduction, Bonus Move Speed	1.4-1.8%	11.6-15.6%
Critical Damage Reduction	2.7-3.7%	23.1-31.3%
Thorns	14-18	116-156
Life Regeneration	3-4	23-31

A Black Mist Reaper's Pauldron has item level 850, 782 Armor and no rolled attributes: it gets 5 revealed ones instead.

Upgrades

Each upgrade level adds

2 steps of +5%

The steps go in turn to the Armor and then to each attribute in tooltip order.

Cost of each upgrade
3 x (current upgrade level + 1)² x item level gold, x 2 for an Ancient item, and 3 Iron Ore, 2 Gold Ore and 1 Earth Essence x (current upgrade level + 1)². The success chance falls as the upgrade level rises.
