Generally, if an item is marked in orange, it’s likely a quest item and might not be sellable. For regular gear, if it has a name or unique effect, I’d suggest holding onto it. I usually sell standard items or +1/+2 gear without hesitation. Also, books and keys are safe to sell once you’ve used them. If you find something that has a unique ability, stash it in your camp chest—good synergy can pop up unexpectedly! For example, the Broodmother’s Revenge amulet has that poison bonus when healed, which can be fantastic when paired with something like the Ring of Regeneration. Better to keep magical items around just in case they combo well later on!

Just a heads up, most highlighted items are indeed quest-related, but certain items, like some unique hearts or books, might not have that orange marker. Still, they can be critical for quests later!
