-'''[[Unique Items#Unique Items|Unique Item Shortlist]] down below'''
+Unique Items are released into the game via two methods, with an equal (50%) chance for either method: the [[Black Market]], or the [[Unique Pool]]. At the beginning of a reset, none of the items are present. When they are activated (which happens at random times dictated by the server), they are either sent to the [[Unique Pool]] (where they wait to be claimed via [[Treasure Chest]]s or other methods mentioned below), or they go straight to the [[Black Market]] to be sold to the highest bidder.
-They are released through [[Treasure Map]] and [[Treasure Chest]] (at the beginning of a reset, none of them are present) and once in the game, each one can be sold, stolen, lost, or used (they cannot be pillaged). When no one owns the item, it has a chance to get back into the game through [[Treasure Map]], [[Treasure Chest]] or the [[Black Market]]. Useable Unique items (such as a [[Holy Hand Grenade]]) go through [[barriers]] just like non-unique items, and can be blocked.
+Unique Items are accompanied by bonuses, abilities, uses, and in some cases, upkeeps. Some Uniques grant the mage an Enchantment-like blessing (which show up when viewing the current Enchantments affecting ones Kingdom). Some grant a one-time blessing, such as a [[Heroes|Hero]] or [[Geld]]. Some grant the mage an ability for use during battles, such as randomly-dealt damage or [[Accuracy]]/AP bonuses. Some must be charged before using once more. Some demand upkeep which can grow increasingly difficult to satisfy. Unique Items vary greatly, and the advantage they provide cannot be understated.
-Possessing some [[Unique Items]] is very comparable to having an [[enchantments|enchantment]] running. Other [[Unique Items]] need to be used in battle. Others are operated using ''Use item''. Others charge and can only be used once every hundred or so [[turns]].
+Each Unique Item can be used, sold, stolen, or lost; they cannot be pillaged. When no one owns the item, it has a chance to get back into the game through [[Treasure Chest]]s or the [[Black Market]], as mentioned above. Usable Unique Items which target enemy mages (such as a [[Holy Hand Grenade]]) must go through [[barriers]] just like non-Unique Items, and can be blocked.
-Notes:
+<br>
-* [[Holy Grail]] - There are five unique holy grails, one for each color. This means that there can be FIVE items with this title in existence at any one time (one of each color).
+'''Notes: '''
-* A Unique that is being sold on the [[Black Market]] is technically not in the game. If you happen to get that unique (via a [[Treasure Chest]]) while the same one is being sold, you will lose it as soon as the sale ends and the item officially enters the game. This makes the [[Efreeti Bottle]] and the [[Holy Grail]]s stay in your possession for a brief time only, sometimes less than an instant.
+* [[Holy Grail]] - There are five unique holy grails, one for each color. This means that there can be FIVE items with this item name in existence at any one time (one of each color)
 =Acquiring Unique Items=
-There are various ways to get Unique Items:
+'''There are various ways to acquire a Unique Item: '''
-* Buy the unique on the [[Black Market]]
+* Buy the unique on the [[Black Market]] once it is activated by the server
-* Get the unique from a [[Treasure Map]] or [[Treasure Chest]] (around 1% chance each time)
+* Find the unique in a [[Treasure Chest]], which has a 2% chance to award a Unique upon use
-** At the beginning of a reset, no one has any uniques. [[Treasure Map]]s and/or [[Treasure Chest|Chests]] hand them out randomly. When you are awarded one, nobody loses it.
+** As mentioned above, the Unique Item granted by a [[Treasure Chest]] is taken from the [[Unique Pool]]. If there are no Unique Items currently in the [[Unique Pool]] (due to all Uniques being possessed OR being VERY early in the reset), no Unique will be awarded on a successful roll
-** After a bit of time passes into a reset, all or most of the uniques are in the possession of mages. When a [[Treasure Map]] gives a mage a unique, another mage loses it.
+*** The only exception to this is on the Beta and Lightning Servers, where a [[Treasure Chest]], on a successful roll, will take a Unique at random whether it is currently possessed or not (it CAN steal Uniques from other mages)
+* Steal them with [[Letters of the Thieves Guild]]. The Letters must pass through [[Barriers]] before having a chance to steal a Unique
-* Steal them with [[Letters of the Thieves Guild]]
+** The chance to steal a Unique from target mage is n%, where n=the number of Uniques owned by target mage
-* Miscellaneous:
+*** The only exception to this is on the Arch Server, where the chance to steal a Unique is n-squared, where n=the number of Uniques owned by target mage (i.e. mage has 6 uniques. there is a 36% chance to steal one)
-** [[Holy Grail]]s are retrieved from [[Blood Stained Map]]s, but can also be obtained just like any other unique. It is generally considered a disappointment is a mage is awarded a [[Holy Grail]] via a [[Treasure Chest]] or any method other than a [[Blood Stained Map]], since the [[Holy Grail]]s are fairly common and cheap when compared to other uniques.
+* Become a [[Science Favor|Most-Favoured Follower of Science]]. This will only grant items from the [[Unique Pool]]. It can award a [[Holy Grail]], so it is generally advised to collect all five before attempting to become [[Science Favor|Most-Favoured]] to prevent being given a [[Holy Grail|Grail]] in place of another Unique
-** [[Efreeti Bottle]]s can be retrieved by Phantasm mages by using the spell [[Wish]].
+<br>
-* [[guilds|Guilds]] built on your land produce only [[Items|Lesser items]], not uniques.
+'''Miscellaneous Information:'''
+* [[Holy Grail]]s are by far the most common Unique Item in Terra. Although the primary method of obtaining a [[Holy Grail|Grail]] is a [[Blood Stained Map]], [[Holy Grail|Grails]] can also be obtained by any other method outlined above (like any other unique). It is generally considered a great disappointment if a mage is awarded a [[Holy Grail]] via a [[Treasure Chest]] or any method other than a [[Blood Stained Map]], since the [[Holy Grail]]s are common, cheap and short-lasting when compared to other Uniques
-There are unfortunately also some ways to lose a Unique:
+* [[Efreeti Bottle]]s can be retrieved by [[Phantasm]] mages by using the spell [[Wish]]. As there can only be one Bottle in existence, they are often lost if kept for too long without using it
-* Whenever a mage successfully uses [[Treasure Map]] or [[Treasure Chest]], and all uniques are held by players, another mage in Terra will lose his unique to the user, if the first mage is within a certain [[Net Power]] range of the mage holding the unique. If not, you get a rather crushing message detailing that there are no uniques currently available to you.
+* [[guilds|Guilds]] built on your land produce only [[Items|Lesser items]], not Uniques
-* Whenever a mage uses [[Letters of the Thieves Guild]] on another mage, there is a chance of stealing a unique.
+<br>
-** If a mage has ''N'' number of uniques, then the approximate chance of stealing a unique from that mage is ''N''%. For example, if a mage has 5 unique items, then there is a 5% chance to steal a unique from that mage by using [[Letters of the Thieves Guild]].
+'''There are also unfortunately some ways to lose a Unique:'''
-** On the Arch Server, the chance to steal a unique from a target is the number of uniques held squared. For example, if a mage has 6 uniques, then the chance of stealing a unique from that target is 36% (6*6=36). This chance is capped at 99% (10 or more uniques held by the target).
+* On the Beta and Lightning Servers, whenever a mage successfully uses a [[Treasure Chest]], and all uniques are held by players, one will be taken at random from an enemy mage
