Prefix (Diablo II)

Prefixes are names and attributes given to, Jewels, and Charms. In, while the same prefixes are used, the names are hidden, as rare names are randomly generated and two rare items with identical stats may have different names.

Although more affixes will spawn on a rare item, many of the strongest affixes are restricted to magic items.

The prefix is the first modifier in an item's label, such as a Bronze Club. A is the end modifier, such as Bronze Club of MS Strength.
