A Unique Gear version is not Tier IV. It is a separate, stronger version built into specific Unique gear and cannot be reached by upgrading a Book.
Tier upgrades raise values such as damage, duration, count or chance. They are upgrade levels, not rarity colors.
How It Triggers
A trigger is the player action that fires this enchantment. Some enchantments support more than one trigger.
