Grades of Items

All weapon, armor and accessories in Lineage II have grades, starting from lowest "No Grade" and ending with highest "Grade A". You character should have a certain level and have a passive skill of "Expertise" of the corresponding level. You can use equipment of higher grade but there’ll be a penalty.

No Grade – from lvl 1
D Grade – from lvl 20
C Grade – from lvl 40
B Grade – from lvl 52
A Grade – from lvl 61

Penalty for equipping items of not corresponding grade

Penalty effect increases in proportion to the difference between character’s level and item grades.
If a 20 lvl character uses an item of C-Grade, they receive the 1st lvl penalty; if a 20 lvl character uses an item of B-Grade, they receive the 2-nd lvl penalty.
