Item Link Question

[vandel212]

Hello, I have a question about Item links. In the Wiki, I was able to find a break down of the item link's anatomy. I have question about one section of it: the item ID. So here is an example of an item link:

|H0:item:27063:25:50:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0|h|h

The number 27063 Refer's to the item's ID. I assume this is set somewhere in ESO's database as an item of some sort. So my question is no matter what mods the item has, the ID will always be the same? So let's say the 27063 is the id for The Sword of a Thousand Truths (or something). If one player finds it with 100 damage, and another player finds The Sword of a Thousand Truths with 105 damage and +5 vit, they'll both have an item ID of 27063?

Thanks!

Yes, the itemId should be unique.
You can check them here for example: http://esoitem.uesp.net/viewlog.php

You can look here, too: http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Online:Item_Link

It depends on what you want to do. Items like armor and weapons have the same id, but different names (from material) from subtype (includes vet) and level (non-vet).
Potions have the same name, subtype and level but different traits from the potion-effect bitfield.
Trophys items like fishes defining their name and quality by item-id. (There is only one, no variation)

and so on...
