Unlocking is a common term used to describe when a merchant takes an item to the next predetermined level of improvement, referred to as a Tier. This usually means the item will have more verb traps available to the owner. In rare cases, as with Voln armor and Ithziri armor, this means that the item will have more mechanical benefits such as padding, a boost to sheer fear resistance, or other special ability. Items that can be unlocked are often sold at festivals and pay events; they are not typically available in any town shop.
