	'''Specials''' are a separate class from ordinary [[Items]]. Each one is tracked individually and can carry its own attributes, such as an expiry date, a target action or a pet species. ~~They are never~~ found from [[Loot Actions]]~~, they~~ do not stack like Items, and in most cases they cannot be given to other players.		'''Specials''' are a separate class from ordinary [[Items]]. Each one is tracked individually and can carry its own attributes, such as an expiry date, a target action or a pet species. Some types can be found from [[Loot Actions]]. They do not stack like Items, although identical copies can be grouped on the interface, and in most cases they cannot be given to other players.

	Specials ~~do things~~ beyond normal play: [[Amplifier]]s and ~~Pulsators~~ boost ~~everyone online~~, while Modifiers ~~lift~~ [[Tools]] ~~past~~ their natural limit.		Specials can provide effects beyond normal play. [[Calibrated Amplifier\|Calibrated Amplifiers]] and [[Arbitrary Amplifier\|Arbitrary Amplifiers]] boost [[Actions]], while [[Noetic Pulsator\|Noetic Pulsators]] reset Action cooldowns. [[Forbidden Modifier\|Forbidden Modifiers]] raise [[Tools\|Tool]] Multipliers beyond their natural limit.

			== Where they come from ==

			Specials are mostly handed out by events and limited rewards: seasonal [[Quests]] rewards, [[Achievements]], [[Bosses]] prizes, [[Burn]] leaderboard prizes and the Special Store. You do not need to be a late game player to get one, so watch the current events.
