hey guys, im just wondering if there is any way to get modded items onto my vanilla character or if someone can hook me up with some

You can get modded items on your vanilla character. It's a bit complicated but it is possible.

It depends how heavily modded item you want. You can either modify basic item list for higher dmg/dps, or make your own items with torchlight 2 modding tool (can be found on their home page)
