Suffixes (WoW)  

Prefixes and suffixes are ways to modify a basic item to have certain additional affects added to it. Blizzard has used this system in previous games, notably Diablo and Diablo II. World of Warcraft uses suffixes mostly for armor. Jewelcrafted gems use a similar scheme, but with prefixes instead.

You will not find these items in the database, as only the base item is listed. Any item in the DB can be modified by any of these suffixes, so we only list the base item.

For Example, Fel Edged Battleaxe can be found in the database, but Fel Edged Battleaxe of the Tiger (redlink intentional) cannot. It is exactly the same as the Fel Edged Battleaxe but with additional Strength and Agility.

It would be nice to have a pic of the in-game info for an item with a suffix here, and modify the example above to match, so users can see the modification and how it works.
