What do the colours of weapon names and their effects generally mean?
1 Answer
This is for items (including weapons) in general. The item colour indicates the quality and/or the purpose of the item. The information comes mostly from Diablo Wiki, but some of it has changed since beta.
- Legendary Items: Orange
- Rare Items: Yellow
- Set Items: Green
- Magical Items: Blue
- Normal Items: White
- Junk Items: Gray
- Quest/Lore items: Green
- Potions and Artisan Crafting items: Light Blue

1Might I point out that Runes no longer exist as items? Your info is out of date. Commented May 15, 2012 at 0:04

You are right. I remember runes being automatically unlocked as you progress through the game. Removed... Commented May 15, 2012 at 0:05

@JamesJiao "Set items do not exist as a special sub-type of item in Diablo III" Are you sure? The Diablo 3 site has a category for them under each weapon type.– ManaCommented May 15, 2012 at 0:11
