The Banner Saga 2 items

**Items** in *The Banner Saga 2* will aid your heroes in their battles by granting bonuses, passive abilities and sometimes small penalties as well.

Every item has a **Rank** (1-10), designating the magnitude of the powers granted. Each hero can equip only one item, of the same or lower Rank as his/hers. Items can be:

* found (usually at godstones) or granted as rewards for accomplishments,
* brought by Heroes who join the caravan,
* purchased in Markets by spending Renown.

You cannot sell items at Markets or otherwise discard them. However, when Heroes are killed or leave, the items they had equipped are removed from your caravan.
