Item Rating(potential) and Enhancement(star) System

You do NOT. The red border on an item simply means "I'm ready to be identified".

After you identify it you get a different colored border depending on if it was rare/epic/unique.

Wait wait wait.

I thought an item was rare/epic/unique depending on the item name color? Like you can find above average blue-named "rare" items from monsters, and you can scroll purple-named "epic" and yellow-named "unique" items right now?

So the color of the border around the item is actually what makes it rare/epic/unique?

If I can get a confirmation I'll edit the guide accordingly.

Thanks for all the positive feedback guys I just got tired of having to go back to the maple q/a threads on these systems. So I made a notepad for myself outlining it in dummy terms, and figured I'd share it with you guys.

Editing in Cyanne's information right now.

Edit; After reading stereo's and shouri's better explanation of the "rank" system for items I'll edit the guide to reflect this Thanks for making the guide better guys, I'll credit you.

Edit2;

Where was it established that higher level equips have a better chance of revealing 3 stats than lower level gear? (Same question for have higher ranks identified.)

just wanted to address that. Alot of the posts from KMS players like takebacker and such kept saying that the higher item level your equip is, the better chance you have of revealing more stats. So I took their word for it =S If you have more up-to-date info on this I'll change it.

Edit3; Disregard the top part of my post. I understand the item rank system better now, and have adjusted the guide accordingly
