Rarity, officially known as Tier, is one of the factors of any item in SkyBlock. An item's rarity serves as a gauge of its worth and usability. Rarity also affects how strong and costly a Reforge will be. Every item in Skyblock has a rarity associated with it.

Reforging and Gemstones
In SkyBlock, Weapons, Armor, and Tools (except shovels) can be Reforged to be gain extra stat bonuses. On top of that some but not all: Swords, Armor, Pickaxes, Drills, Axes and Fishing Rods, as well as Sulphur Bow, 
Pendant of Divan and 
Talisman of Power as well as its upgrades, can have Gemstones applied to gain additional stats. The higher the rarity of an item is, the greater the stat boost from both Reforges and Gemstones will be. The rarity will also determine the reforge price.
Pet Rarity
Each Pet has its own rarity. The higher their rarity, the more abilities and stat boosts they grant the player.
Trivia
- The Rarity Color of SPECIAL was changed from Pink to Red most likely because the MYTHIC rarity color was determined to be Pink in the Alpha Hypixel Network.
- Most LEGENDARY items, specifically weapons, have a unique UUID, preventing them from stacking and help determine possible duped items.
