See Unique equipment (Awakening) for extraordinary equipment in Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening.

These are not just items with a unique name; they are items that would be coveted by people all over Ferelden.

This page only lists "top tier" items. These are usually tier 6 or 7 with a very high power level. Most cost over 50 at stores, are discovered at the end of quest lines, or are gained from downloadable content. They are items that even a level 20 character would find useful, and each often has a corresponding codex entry. Each one comes with extremely useful enchantments.
