WoW API < GetItemQualityColor

Returns RGB color codes for an item quality.

r, g, b, hex = GetItemQualityColor(quality)

Arguments[edit]

  • quality (number) - The numeric ID of the quality from 0 (Poor) to 7 (Heirloom).

Returns[edit]

  • r (number) - The Red component of the color (0 to 1, inclusive).
  • g (number) - The Green component of the color (0 to 1, inclusive).
  • b (number) - The Blue component of the color (0 to 1, inclusive).
  • hex (string) - The 4 character hex UI escape sequence for this color

Example[edit]

for i = 0, 8 do
  local r, g, b, hex = GetItemQualityColor(i)
  print(i, hex, _G["ITEM_QUALITY" .. i .. "_DESC"], hex:sub(5))
end

Result[edit]

Will print all qualities, in their individual colors (example result from version 6.2.4).
0 Poor ff9d9d9d
1 Common ffffffff
2 Uncommon ff1eff00
3 Rare ff0070dd
4 Epic ffa335ee
5 Legendary ffff8000
6 Artifact ffe6cc80
7 Heirloom ffe6cc80
8 WoW Token ff00ccff

Details[edit]

GetItemQualityColor() was added in 1.9.1
If an invalid quality index is specified, GetItemQualityColor() returns white (same as index 1):
r = 1
g = 1
b = 1
hex = |cffffffff

Changes[edit]

  • Quality 7 was added in version Patch 3.0 for heirloom items
  • ITEM_QUALITY7_DESC is now defined as of Patch 3.1.1
  • Patch 6.1.2 introduced quality 8, WoW Token.
  • Patch 7.0.3 changed the Heirloom color from Heirloom ffe6cc80 to Heirloom ff00ccff. This was likely done to avoid confusion with Artifact ffe6cc80.
