Items

Items are special collectibles that spawn while playing the game.

Players can pick items up to gain a special effect based upon what type of item it is. Each item's icon also has a colored border to indicate its rarity:

• White (Common)
• Green (Uncommon)
• Red (Legendary)
• Yellow (Boss / Planet)
• Blue (Lunar Items / Equipment)
• Orange (Equipment)

Some items need to be unlocked by completing a Challenge to appear in game. Pick up an item to unlock logbook entry.

There are currently 102 items and 31 equipment in the game. You can find a list of all these items below:

Passive Items

A passive item visually appears in the top bar in-game and provides a certain benefit to a player (or in some cases, a drawback), specific to that item, as long as it is in a player's inventory. If it is removed from their inventory (e.g. by using a 3D printer), they no longer are affected by that item's effects.

There is no limit to how many different types of passive item, or how many of a passive item a player can hold at any one time. Multiples of a specific item stack the item's effects in a particular manner, instead of each affecting the player individually. See: Item Stacking

Lunar

Lunar items are a new tier of items introduced in Risk of Rain 2. They are characterized by their powerful abilities at the cost of having considerable drawbacks. Chests and other common loot interactibles will not drop Lunar items; as such the only ways to obtain them are from Lunar Pods found rarely throughout environments or from the Bazaar Between Time. Both methods require spending Lunar Coins, as opposed to Gold.

Active Items

An active item ("Equipment") often provides no benefit unless it is used by the player (as they would one of their abilities), which provides a powerful effect but incurs a comparatively lengthy cool-down period during which it (or other active items) can't be used by that player again. A player can normally hold only one active item at any time; if they try to pick up an active item while they are already holding one, they will swap it for the new one instead. There are 21 standard Active Items, 4 Lunar Active items, and 6 Elite "Active" items.

Elite Equipment

Elite Equipment are unique items that grant the player the abilities of Elite enemies. Despite inhabiting the same slots as active items, Elite Equipment more closely resemble passive items; their benefits are present at all times while in a player's inventory. As such, the players need not activate Elite Equipment and the use of one does not incur a cool-down period. However, Elite Equipment is still restricted to the active item slot, meaning they cannot be stacked and only one may be active at a time. An Elite Equipment can only be obtained as a rare (1/4000 or 0.025%) drop from its respective elite type. There are 6 different Elite Equipments, corresponding to the variations of Elite enemies. Please note that Elite Equipment appears as regular Orange Command Essence while the Artifact of Command is enabled. Even though they occupy the active item slot, Elite Equipment are not subject to the effects of Artifact of Enigma, and will not change if "used" while it is enabled.
