The pipeline enforces them and only the exceptions reach you. The decision queue holds at most fifty items and never touches your bag. LOOT YOU DECIDE ON Ten rarity tiers from Bit to Yotta. Implicit lines, affixes, enhancement from +0 to +25 with real downgrade risk, sockets, and runes that carry three candidate stats. The roll happens when you socket...
