Item
From Guild Wars Wiki
An item is anything a character may pick up. There are two game elements that are referred to as items:- Bundle items, representing large objects that needs to be carried in both hands. See that article for details.
- Inventory items, representing any other item.
Inventory items are added to your inventory when picked up, while bundles can only be carried in your character's hands, replacing any weapon and offhand item you have equipped. Many inventory items are stackable.
An item's name will have a different color depending on its rarity and modifications. See item rarity for more information.
[edit] Getting items
Inventory items are usually picked as a loot from a dead enemy. Items are split evenly between you and your party members (including heroes and henchmen). Items dropped are assigned to one person and can be only picked by them, unless the party goes too far away from the item, the person the item is assigned to logs out or changes maps, or 10 minutes elapse after the item drops. In such situations anyone in the party can pick up the item. Note that heroes' and henchmen's items are not shown, nor will they pick up an unassigned item. Sometimes you may find unassigned item lying on ground, such as Red Iris Flower – they are randomly spawned on a predesignated places upon a party member arrival.
Items can also be obtained as a quest reward, given to character upon creation, given when the characters celebrate it's birthday, spawn using /bonus command or simply traded between characters.
[edit] Stacking
A stack is a group of identical items that is be stored in a single inventory space. If an item is stackable, up to 250 copies of it can be held in one stack. The total number of items in a stack is shown as a yellow number over the top of the item's icon.
