Item Stats Icon.

On alot of items i'm noticing a small "x" next to some of the stat bonus numbers, i though it was an indication of a higher than normal stat for the item but im seeing it on the same stat bonus on dupes so im at a loss.

 

It's an asterisk (*) and it shows how close the stat is to max, *** is always max, ** and * are close, but on some stats where it's a smaller number (like 1-3) the amount of asterisks is just the roll of the stat.

 

For further clarification of what the asterisk means:

Identifiable items have a range of stats, calculated using a base value and a multiplier. When an item is identified, every stat that it can have is randomly given a multiplier in increments of 0.01, from 0.30-1.30 (for positive stats) or 0.70-1.30 (for negative stats).

You may also have noticed stars next to the stats on certain items (example) - this indicates a high roll. Rolling 1.00 to 1.24 shows as one star, 1.25 to 1.29 shows as two stars, and a perfect roll of 1.30 shows as three stars. Stars will only ever show on positive stats - a negative stat will never show stars, regardless of roll.
