Items (previously known as Burn cards or Shared Cards before Paladins CB33) are special kinds of Cards that all Champions have access to via the in-game item store. These items allow players to gain useful benefits such as bonus movement or reload speed. There are four types of items: Defense, Utility, Healing, and Offense.

Guide Item Shop

In-game Item Shop

Items can be purchased at the spawn rooms by pressing the item store key (I by default). Items are purchased with Currency Credits Credits, which can be earned by interacting with aspects of the game (earning Eliminations, healing allies, playing the objective). A maximum of 4 items can be bought per game for a maximum of 12 tiers of upgrades per match.

Each item can be upgraded up to two times, replacing the previous item with a stronger version of itself. Each upgrade costs the original value multiplied by 2 or 3 (e.g. a 300 Currency Credits item will cost 600 Currency Credits to upgrade to tier 2, and 900 Currency Credits to upgrade to tier 3). Once purchased or upgraded, items can be sold or downgraded, as long as the player has not left the spawn room. There is an autobuy function that allows new players to have the game purchase items for them. This feature can be toggled on and off within the Item Store menu or in the Gameplay tab in the Options menu.

Before the update Paladins 2.1 Update only one item of each category could be purchased by the player, now category restrictions were lifted. Players can undo purchases made in the item store, as long as they have not left the spawn room.

In Paladins, there is a system where multiple sources of the same effect provide Diminishing returns (less % than listed) for each source beyond the first. This allows players to have a wide variety of ways to receive buffs (Items, Abilities, Cards, etc.) without having out of control values above 100%.

There is one passive effect that every Champion has throughout the match: Anti-Healing Mechanic (some players call this by an older name: Cauterize). It is an anti-heal effect that slowly grows throughout a game, forcing teams to adapt their playstyles and continue to build to counteract its effects. The player can always check and see the progress of Anti-Healing under the scoreboard.
