Attunement

Some equipments are required to be "attuned" in order for its effects to work. This is a mechanic to prevent too much equipment micromanagement during fights (such as swapping between 2 body armors during a fight).

To attune an equipment you must equip it and complete dungeon rooms. Each room increases your equipped item's attunement by 1. Equipments can have an attunement value of 1 (1 room) to 3 (3 rooms) and will reset if you enter a new room with it unequipped (i.e in your inventory).

Equipment Rarity

Equipments have their own rarity, beginning with Common up to Legendary. Typically the higher the rarity, the more powerful the item is.
