A Step-By-Step Instruction For Item Upgrading

Path of Exile Item Upgrading

In Path of Exile, item upgrading is among the best ways to upgrade your equipment without relying on big-ticket drops or trade. This article will teach you how to upgrade your items.

Upgrading equipment grants an increase to the item's base stats. The amount of bonus varies depending on the rarity and level of the upgrade component.

Components

Upgrade components make your weapons and armour better. You can locate them by destroying enemies, purchasing them from karma sellers or finding them in items-spheres. You can also get them from equipment that contains the components, or by utilizing high-end salvage kits like Black Lion Salvage Kit and Ascended Salvage Tool. In contrast to other items upgrades aren't destroyed when they are removed from an item upgrades.

Upgrade components are mostly used to upgrade an item however, they can also be used for other purposes. They can be used to increase the level or experience gained from upgrading existing equipment or weapons. They can also be forged to offer additional benefits. For instance, a specially crafted glyph will boost the chances of upgrading its target, whereas the boost upgrade can increase the attack or defense property of a weapon, or armor.

You can attach an upgrade template to an item by selecting it from the edition GUI. This will show the upgrade components to which the item can be upgraded. You can also use the workbench to selecting an upgrade template. In either instance, the item will be upgraded after enough upgrade components have been collected.

Each component is assigned an experience multiplier. This determines the amount of experience an item can gain when upgraded with that component. For instance, organic components have a an experience multiplier that is higher than mechanical ones. Therefore, it is recommended to upgrade using organic components until you have reached the experience multiplier of the next rank of the equipment or weapon, and then change to mechanical upgrades.

In addition to the multiplier for experience every item also has a maximum number of upgrades it can receive. The number of upgrades is determined by its upgradeable rank and the type of upgrade available to the upgradeable item. The highest upgrade possible is a weapon with the tier 10. However, the most commonly used weapon upgrades are the tier 6 weapon and a tier 5 armor upgrade.

Sets

A set is a collection of objects which all have the same bonus. Each item can be upgraded at minimum once. The upgrade will increase the amount of bonuses you can expect to receive. The first time you upgrade an item or set piece, it will receive an increase of +1 to its primary stat. In subsequent upgrades the primary stats will be boosted a bit more (for example, +1 to 12+/13+/14+) Each time you upgrade the item it will have one of its additional stats is boosted randomly.

Upgrading a weapon can also increase the damage base, which may be crucial for certain builds. However, weapons cannot be upgraded to have a greater defense base than their normal base. Upgrading can be a good way to improve the value of some set and unique items, but it's important to remember that they might not be superior to a high-level runeword in any build.

If you are upgrading an item that has a bonus, the item can be rerolled one time and the guarantee will reset back to 0. Rerolling is the same amount of power dice as the process of leveling an item upgrades, but the new item will offer additional bonuses. The NPC [Armor] Boboko can upgrade your armor in Central Flarine. To upgrade an item you will require the proper amount of Minerals and Erons, as well as a power dice of each type. These are available at the crafting table or the Ultra Collector and can be purchased with Gold. The NPC will also give a special reward for every tier that is completed of the upgrade process. The reward can be rerolled one time with the same materials and components as the first item.

Rerolling

A player can roll any item they have acquired in the game provided they have enough reroll tokens. If an upgraded item is being rerolled, it can be exchanged for a version at a level 1 of the same item in a different set. Reroll tokens can be purchased at the store for a small amount of in-game currency. However, they are not refundable. The new upgraded item will have the same bonuses of the first however its stats will differ as well.

In addition to rerolling items, players can also alter the identity of any equipment by interacting with an upgrader NPC. This will change its identification from a weapons to armor, or reverse it. Its base stats and requirements will remain the same. The change will be permanent and will affect all characters that own the gear.

The player can also upgrade their item level for any equipment that is equipped. This can be done by interacting with an upgrader NPC and getting upgrade items. The cost of upgrading will depend on the upgrade track, the item type and number of crests. In the case of weapons, each upgrade will add an additional 5% to its damage.

Upgrades can boost the power of an item, but they also decrease its quality. It is therefore essential to find a balance between the two. Certain items aren't worth upgrading, while other items require upgrades to maximize their potential. For example, a player might decide to upgrade a piece breakpoint armor with an interesting modifier (% chance to block or FHR) to see what it can become.

The primary reason people are able to reroll in Genshin Impact, or in any gacha-based game, is because they are trying to obtain a particular weapon or character that they aren't able to obtain. Getting these items can be expensive and time-consuming and the RNG gods do not always want to cooperate. The only options are to spend real cash or grind for a long time. Rerolling is extremely popular in Genshin Impact.

Leveling

You can select whether to upgrade the weapon or armor after upgrading an item. This feature isn't available in the current version of the game. I believe it was intended to to add value to rare items, but since the majority of gear drops quickly and is only upgraded one level up and you'll typically replace the item before it gets too old. It's not worth it to upgrade items with gem sockets since the value of the gem will outweigh the higher ilvl that comes with the upgrade.

You will see a small box when you click the upgrade option for an item. It will display the item's template, the crest, and the cost of Valorstone to increase the item's level. The cost will differ between the armor and weapons, with the former usually costing more than the latter. The upgrade template lists the stats that will be added to the upgraded item and also lists its current ilvl.

The crest and Valorstone costs are calculated based on the item's current ilvl and the upgrade template. The ilvl is also decreased by the upgrade templates reduction percentage for lvl. For instance, an upgrade of 8% can reduce the weapon's ilvl by 8 to 8%.

In addition to the increase in ilvl base, the item will also be upgraded in other stats such as critical strike damage, PvE damage and block, parry and dodge rating. These upgrades are also based on the upgrade template.

In the upgrade template, you can see the amount of damage or defense the item will be able to sustain after it is leveled up. This is shown below the cost and the upgrade percentages. All weapons and armor, except practice equipment, gain these stats upon leveling up. The market determines the value of these stats. A weapon or armor with perfect rolls can command a much higher price than an unupp'd version. This is also true for other pieces of armor, like tiaras or circlets.
