After a not very well gone post about the Wish for New Items, dunno if Devs have read, now I believe it's time to list the item we use more often, and the other we find useless, or however we see most used/useless.

Spellcasting enhancing items are fine I believe, perhaps someone unique more to add somo colour, like more book +1x+1y ^^
Many unique items aren't so strong, not only since you cannot industrialize your SC by that way, but there're more useful items in non unique Category. I'm for improving the effect (not lowering the cost) of many of then, and some are dangerous too for the wielder (see the stone sword, unquenced sword, many horror mark, curses, effect that attract strange being and that the item isn't worthing so often)

I often see Blood Thorn and Wraith sword, for SC survival.
Elemental Armor or Jade armor are almost always used.
Characoal Shield, or Lucky Coin used too.

Staff of Storms too is used.
Lucky Amulet, Antimagic Amulet, Regeneration Ring.
Boots of Quickness.

Well I can open the magic item list and wrote down an entire post telling what's useful/less for me.

Or at least you should consider ... a wraith sword is almost always useful, another item is so specific that isn't done at all if not in very determinate circumstance. But usually that item isn't so powerful to save you in such circumstance, even if highly specialized. (ie: Elf Bane ... useful against magical being, but if enemy hasn't magical beings, you are wasting gems to a less powerful weapon compared to a one without enhanced damage against the magical being ... so on if the enemy has an horde of magical being, with my Elf Bane the things really change since I can equip only few commanders with them against an horde of magical summons. In that case an anti-magic 3 area splash damage should be nice, as the axe releases a wave of energy when meeting the essence of a magical being)
