Crimsonguard Pauldron

Rare Shoulder Warrior Hunter

How it drops

Loot generation occurs once per wave upon the death of the last enemy, scaled to that enemy's level. If a rare item is chosen, slots holding an eligible base have an equal chance to be selected—though Back items roll at only 7% of that probability—with a base then picked uniformly from that slot. The Crimsonguard Pauldron can drop from enemy level 1 and is exclusive to Warriors and Hunters. Normal mode calculates item level between 10 × (level − 1) and 10 × level + 9. On Nightmare and Inferno, where every mob is level 70, item level becomes 700 plus the map level (× 2 on Inferno).

Possible affixes

Rare gear rolls 3 primary affixes and 1 secondary affix without duplicates from the pool, excluding any stats your class cannot roll; armor pieces additionally receive a guaranteed Armor roll. The values below reflect the formula across each item level, which can be previewed in the item roll calculator.
