Notes

  • (W) indicates 33% of chance to obtain the affix when wished for if luck is nonnegative, and otherwise 0%.
  • Cyclopean, Olympian, and Jotunheimian prefixes stack with the weapon quality modifiers (exceptional, elite, celestial/primordial/infernal) in a linear fashion. These prefixes add +2 to the base damage multiplier while the quality modifiers add +1/+2/+3 to the base damage multiplier. Thus, a Cyclopean elite weapon deals 5x base damage (1+2+2=5).
  • Mythic affixes cannot appear on double-headed and triple-headed flails.
