20 Things You Need To Be Educated About Item Upgrading

From Hastam Wiki

World of Warcraft Upgrades and item upgrader mod Upgrading

Upgrades can boost the value of armors, weapons and rings. They also increase bonuses like damage from PvE and crit chance.

If the template for upgrading a weapon ends in %, it will gain 3percent of its previous damage for each time it is upgraded.

Item upgrading costs crests and the item's current level. The cost increases as the level of the item rises.

Components

Upgrade components can be incorporated into trinkets, armor, and weapons in order to provide them with a boost in stats or to add an additional effect. They can be obtained by crafting, buying from vendors trading or looting. Some upgrades have special cosmetic effects.

Upgrade components can be inserted into equipment that has a slot for them. The item must have been at least upgraded to the blue level for a component to be inserted. Upgrade components, unlike other mods can only be applied once. They are not able to be replaced or applied several times. Infusions and enrichments are a kind of upgrade component that is used to upgrade non-amulet legendary and Ascended equipment, as well in some items that aren't ascended. Infusions and enrichments are recovered by salvaging gear from the ascended, or completing an elite task in the Prophecies, Factions and Nightfall campaigns.

A prefix or suffix can be added to an upgrade, thereby changing the name of the item it's applied to (for example, 'Canthan Armor Insignia',' changes to Canthan Armor Minor Vigor). Certain upgrades can increase the Mark Rarity or Level of an item, allowing players to create stronger versions of the item using fewer Upgrade crystals than they require to reach the same level using normal methods.

A boost upgrade is a way to modify the attack or defense attributes of a weapon or armor. These upgrades are available to be made from the Portative Forging Station once the player completes the cutscene and defeats the Crazed mechanic. These upgrades can be purchased by purchasing them in the cash shop or getting them from enemies while upgrading other equipment.

The player is able to have the maximum of five boost upgrades at one time. Each upgrade increases the chance that a higher-level version of the item will be available in the next reset. This gives players a reason to upgrade their gear, even if they are unsure how much it will be improved after a reset.

The process of upgrading an item could be expensive and it's possible that the item will be obsolete or even break in the event that the upgrade is unsuccessful. Upgrade Crystals and assist powders are also destroyed when the upgrade fails. Cash shop items can be used to decrease or eliminate the possibility of failure. Some upgrades also offer the player a bonus if they are they are reinserted.

Glyphs

Glyphs are upgrade components which can be put in special sockets on the Paragon Board. Glyphs can boost the performance of nodes within a radius, including any pre-existing affixes. Glyphs can be upgraded in a variety of ways, and we recommend upgrading them to 15 levels as soon as possible.

In the endgame, you will often find that the best way to improve your gear is by placing Glyphs. These are the only upgrade components that can be upgraded to level 15 and provide significant boosts to your power on the Paragon Board.

Glyphs, the only upgrade component that can be removed without restriction and replaced again are the most popular. Only legendary equipment can be salvaged and rebuilt with a Black Lion Salvage Kit.

Each Glyph has a particular range of values it can improve a statistic by, and the value is shown when you select the Glyph in your inventory. You can replace it with a Glyph of the same rank or a higher rank, which will boost the value of the glyph.

There are Glyphs in the Black Lion Trading Post, as part of the Gem Store purchase or bundle with certain gathering tools that are unlimited-use as well as through Faction Crypt raids. Each Faction Crypt could drop one of these Glyphs. There are also some rare glyphs that you can find in any of the Faction Crypts.

Once you have the desired Glyphs You will have to put them on your equipment. Each Glyph unlocks a unique bonus that boosts the stats of a specific set of nodes in a radius surrounding the Glyph. Based on the Glyph, this will either be +40 to one of your primary stats, or +25 to two of your secondary stats.

Using Glyphs Glyph can boost all nodes that are connected to it, so it is recommended to position your Glyphs close to key nodes on the Graph to maximise the impact. For instance that a Druid should try to position their Glyphs near their primary damage nodes however, you may also want to think about placing them near crucial damage nodes too.

Leveling

The item upgrade system allows players to increase the power of certain items by introducing upgraded components. This is often referred to as "upping". Every upgradeable item has a level that determines its upgraded stats. Upgraded items are able to be leveled up to a maximum of ilvl 385. Each level requires a different number of components, and the upgrade costs increase as the item is upgraded.

Some upgrades require an ingredient to be activated. This ingredient can be obtained by making Upgrade Recipes. These recipes can be purchased from NPCs or on the upgrade tab in crafting tables. Each Upgrade Recipe completed yields a certain number of Technology points. These points can be used to upgrading an item. When enough points have been earned you will be eligible to claim the upgrade and get its extra bonuses.

When an item upgrade is upgraded by a player to a higher level, the original item is replaced with a new item of the same type. The same armor will be upgraded to an weapon or shield when upgraded. The new item comes with its own set bonus. This can be a downside, as the item can become more expensive even if you don't need it.

Item upgrades can sometimes be rerolled, if the player has enough tokens to be able to do this. The item will be replaced with a brand new one that has a base of level 1 and completely different bonuses. This is useful for certain items, but it shouldn't be performed frequently, since it could waste many resources.

Some upgrades can be rerolled multiple times, increasing their value and allows the player to modify their equipment. One example is Dolphin's Gift, which gives an increase in power when a player is repeatedly in and out of the water (or is able to swim like a dolphin). It can be upgraded multiple times, each time raising the max roll by 10 points. This item can be very useful in PvP battles, since the best version of it can be worth between 20 and 50x its value without being upgraded.

Requirements

The ability to upgrade items allows players to increase the level of their available gear--armor, weapons and trinkets above ilvl 385--by offering the appropriate currency and items to an item upgrader NPC. Upgrades to armor set pieces also increase the defense base of that piece, while upgrading weapons will increase the damage base and required strength and dexterity to match the requirements of the upgraded equipment.

Each item can be upgraded up to five times, with the exception of hero gear that can have eight upgrades. Each time you upgrade an item it has a chance to fail--the failure rate increases the more you exceed the maximum amount of upgrades. Failures will result in the item reverting to its original state which means that the player has to spend additional items than if they stopped upgrading after the maximum number.

If an item isn't upgraded the experience bar in the bar for growth will be reset to zero. The item upgrade will also lose any bonuses it earned, such as crit chance damage to attack, other effects (such as increased heal over time or reloading speed). However, the player may still continue to use the weapon or armor after the failure.

If an item is upgraded, the upgrades are applied in order from lowest to highest. This means that should a weapon gain an increase in crit chance it will be applied prior to any increase in attack damage. A new attribute called Slots is now added to the definition of the item and the value is computed every time an upgrade is made.

The amount of resources needed to upgrade an item are dependent on its rarity score and upgrade slot count. The cost of upgrading non-premium equipment is equal to its base value. For example an item of common use could have five upgrades at a cost of. 25,600 Technology Points and 4x Quality Improvement Chance. Hero grade items will have the lowest cost for each additional upgrade.

Premium items have different requirements for upgrading in comparison to standard equipment. For instance, they might require fewer sowels but more minerals and erons. Regardless, the player will have to visit the NPC [Armorthe ] Boboko in Central Flarine with each piece of equipment they want to upgrade. Each upgrade of equipment will require different amounts of ingredients for upgrading, in addition to the costs that are listed above.
