World of Warcraft Upgrades and Item Upgrading

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

If the weapon's upgrade template is in %, the weapon will increase 3percent of its previous attack damage each time it is upgraded.

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

Components

Upgrade components can be added to trinkets, weapons and armor to give them a boost in stats or add a bonus effect. They can be obtained through making crafts, buying from vendors, trading with other players or looting. Certain upgrades come with special cosmetic effects.

Upgrade components can only be applied to equipment with a slot. The item must be at least upgraded to blue before the component can be applied. Upgrade components, unlike other mods, can only be applied once. They are not able to be replaced or applied multiple times. Infusions and enrichments are a particular kind of upgrade component that is used to upgrade non-amulet ascended or legendary equipment, as well as some of the non-ascended back items. Infusions and enrichments can be obtained by salvaging equipment from the ascended state or by completing a mission within the Prophecies, Factions, and Nightfall campaigns.

An upgrade item could include a suffix or prefix that alters the name of the equipment to which it is used (for instancefor example 'Canthan Armor Insignia' becomes Canthan Armor of Minor Vigor). Some upgrades increase the Mark Level or Rarity of an item, which lets 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 alter the defense or attack attributes of a weapon or armor. Once the player has completed the cutscene and defeated the Crazed Mechanist, these upgrades can be made at the Portative Forging Station. They can be dropped by enemies when upgrading other gear or by purchasing them from the cash shop for 500 upgrade crystals each.

Each upgrade increases the likelihood that a higher tier version of the item will be available at the next reset. This gives players an incentive to upgrade their gear, even when they're not sure how much it can be improved upon an update.

Whether a boost upgrade is successful or not, the process may be costly, and there is a substantial risk that the item may become obsolete or even break if it fails; a unsuccessful upgrade could cause the destruction of Upgrade Crystals and Assist Powder, as well as the upgraded item. This is alleviated by the availability cash shop items that can increase or even eliminate the chance of failure, as well as a few upgrades that give a bonus when reinserted into an item.

Glyphs

Glyphs are upgrade elements that can be inserted into special sockets on the Paragon Board. Glyphs increase the power of nodes within a radius, including any pre-existing affixes. Glyphs can be upgraded in numerous ways. We recommend upgrading them as quickly as possible to level 15.

It is commonplace to see in the endgame that putting Glyphs is the Best item upgrade way to upgrade your gear. They are the only upgrade components which can be upgraded to level 15 and provide significant boosts to your power on the Paragon Board.

Most of the upgrades in the game can be replaced but Glyphs are the only upgrade component that can be removed and re-placed without any restrictions. Only legendary equipment can be salvaged and replaced by using the help of a Black Lion Salvage Kit.

Each Glyph has a certain range of values that it can improve a stat by, and the value is displayed when you select the Glyph in your inventory. You can choose to replace it with another Glyph with the same rank or a higher rank, which will increase the overall value of the glyph.

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

When you have the desired Glyphs, you will have to put them on your gear. Each Glyph unlocks a unique bonus that can boost a particular set of stat nodes within a radius around 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.

Glyphs boost all nodes that are connected to them, therefore it is recommended to place Glyphs in the most important spots on the Graph. This will increase the impact. For example an Druid should try to place their Glyphs near their primary damage points, but also consider placing them near critical damage nodes too.

Leveling

The item upgrading [Read the Full Write-up] system allows players to increase the performance of certain items by placing upgraded components into them. This is often referred to as "upping". Each upgradeable item comes with a level that determines its final upgraded stats. Upgraded items can be upgraded up to a maximum level of 385. Each level of an item requires a different amount of components to be reached, and the upgrade costs increase as the item is upgraded.

Certain upgrades require an ingredient to be activated. This ingredient can be obtained by completing Upgrade Recipes. These recipes can be found in the upgrade tab of a crafting table or obtained from NPCs. Each Upgrade Recipe completed results in a certain amount of Technology points. These points can be used to the upgrading of an item. When enough points have been earned you will be eligible to claim the upgrade and also receive the bonuses.

When the player upgrade items a piece of equipment the original item will be replaced with an item that is new. The same armor will be upgraded to the form of a weapon or shield when upgraded. The new item will come with a bonus of its own. This could be a disadvantage in that the item could become more expensive even if you do not need it.

If the player has enough tokens, they can roll the upgrade of their item. This causes the item to be traded for a new one, which will have the level 1 base, and a different set of bonuses. This can be useful for certain items, however it's not something that should be performed frequently, since it could waste many resources.

Certain upgrades can be rerolled several times, increasing their value and allowing the player to customize their gear. Dolphin's Gift is a good example, as it provides a buff if the player repeatedly enters or leaves the water. The item can be upgraded multiple times and increases the maximum roll each time by 10 increments. This item is very important in PvP. A well-rolled version can be worth 50 times the value of its non-upgraded version.

Requirements

Item upgrading allows players to upgrade the quality of their equippable equipment--armor, weapons, and trinkets that are above ilvl 385 by offering the appropriate currency and items to an NPC that upgrades items. The upgrade of armor set pieces will also increase the defense base of the piece, whereas upgrading weapon items will increase the damage base and the strength and dexterity required to meet the upgraded equipment's requirements.

Each item can be upgraded a maximum of five times, except for hero gear that can have eight upgrades. Each time you upgrade a piece of equipment, it has a chance of failing. The probability of failure increases as you go over the maximum number. Failures can result in the item reverting to its original state, which will force the user to spend more money on materials than they would had they stopped upgrading at the highest number of upgrades.

If an item fails to upgrade, the amount of accumulated experience in its growth bar is reset to zero. The item also loses any bonuses it earned, such as chances to be crit damage to attack, other effects (such as a higher healing rate over time, or the speed of reloading). However, the player can still continue to use the weapon or armor after the failure.

When an item is upgraded the upgrades are applied in order from lowest to highest. This means that if a weapon gains a crit chance increase, the increase will be applied prior to any damage from attacks increases. Slots is a brand-new attribute that was added to the definitions of items. The value is recalculated every time an upgrade occurs.

The amount of resources needed to upgrade an item is determined on the rarity rating as well as the number of upgrade slots. The cost of upgrading non-premium equipment is equal to its value. For instance, a common item might have five upgrades at a cost of. 25600 Technology Points, 4x Quality Improvement Chance. Hero quality items are less expensive per upgrade.

Premium items could have different upgrade requirements than normal equipment. For instance they may require less sowels, but they will require more minerals and orons. Regardless, the player will need to visit the NPC [ArmorBoboko in Central Flarine. Boboko in Central Flarine with each piece of equipment they want to upgrade. In addition to the upgrade costs mentioned above, each upgrade requires the use of different ingredients for upgrading.
