Tempering allows you to add affixes to your Legendary and Rare items. Tempering Manuals can randomly drop in any Difficulty and each manual offers a list of 3 to 4 themed recipes. The higher the Difficulty you are playing in the better quality the Manual will be (Magic, Rare, Legendary) and the drops will be more frequent.
The Manual goes into your bag. You click it to learn and it is stored in your Codex of Power.
Tempering Manual Categories
- Weapons Manuals - Mostly bonuses to specific skills. Multiplicative dmg.
- Offensive Manuals - Bonuses to broader categories like bonus fire dmg and bonus critical strike dmg. Additive dmg.
- Defensive Manuals
- Utility Manuals - Bonuses to size and duration of skills.
- Mobility Manuals - Movement and Cooldown Duration.

Items can be tempered with only one Affix. You can reroll as often as you want from Season 10 onwards.
These Tempered affixes will increase along with the other Affixes on an item when you perform Masterworking.
