tModLoader [FIXED] How do I change the rarity of Vanilla items?

[RBryanYT]

I am making a mod that adds a new rarity and I don't know how to change a vanilla item to have the rarity.

Can someone help?

Override SetDefaults() in GlobalItem, and specify your vanilla itemID and set
Item.rare = ModContent.RarityType<whatever>(); to whatever your rarity is

How do I do that? I looked at ExampleMod, but I couldn't find anything that tells me how to do that.

Also how would I do it for multiple items?

That's not what I mean... how do I use a GlobalItem to SetDefaults of multiple vanilla items?

Ah sorry I thought you mean the rarity part.

For applying it to specific items, you'd use the AppliesToEntity hook. Here's an example.

Ok, thanks! I'm assuming the only way to do it for multiple items is using multiple GlobalItems.

You can use one GlobalItem class, just check for multiple itemIDs in AppliesToEntity. If the item is ID1 or if item is ID2, etc etc, return true
