Prefix vs Suffix Mods

I've read some of the write-ups on this, but am still having trouble distinguishing what is a prefix and what is a suffix.

Take the below armor for example. Could someone explain to me which mods are which, and how we know that?



Thanks.

After awhile you'll get the hang of what's a prefix and a suffix. I myself haven't completely got used to it yet, but I'm slowly learning as well~

Dex - Suffix
Evasion - Prefix
Life - Prefix
Life Regen- Suffix
Resist - Suffix
Block & Stun -Prefix

And there you have it, your max of 3 Prefix and Suffixes :)

Rule of thumb, Stats are suffixes, resists are suffixes. Evasion/Life are prefixes. Look through the list, you'll see similar kinds of mods on either prefix or suffix, then you'll remember what belongs to which mod pool :)

Yea, I've read through those and am still a bit confused. I guess it just comes down to studying all of it.

Yeah, but pay attention to the kind of stats that belong to each mod pool. You'll see a similarity :) Also edited my first post~

OK, that helps me quite a bit. Thank you!
