==Description==''...This is a very rare and interesting version of the item.'' Players may occasionally succeed in creating rare, [[supreme item|supreme]] or even [[fantastic item|fantastic]] items. Tools may be faster, weapons may do more damage, and armour could protect the wearer a bit better. These special items may also be made as If you improve on regular items and those rare items may again turn into a supreme or fantastic item. Constructing new items using rare materials may turn the unfinished item into a rare item. A "drum-roll" and visual cue appears when your chance to create or generate a rare item arises. The visual cue is a green halo which will surround the border of the screen, lasting a fraction of a second. When rare items were introduced players were told "You get approximately 1 chance of 50% each hour to create a rare item." What play this actually means to game play is unknown. The odds of creating a rare seem to you will be much higher than improving an item and making it rare.
