World of Warcraft Upgrades and Item Upgrading Upgrades can boost the value of certain numeric stats on armor, weapons and rings. They also boost extra bonuses like damage from PvE and crit chance. If the weapon's upgrade template is %, it will increase 3percent of its previous attack damage every time it's upgraded. The cost for upgrading items increases when they reach the item's current level. The cost rises with item's level. Components Upgrade components can be incorporated into trinkets, weapons and armor in order to provide them with a boost in stats or to add an additional effect. These can be obtained through crafting, buying from vendors trading, or looting. Some upgrades have special cosmetic effects. Upgrade components can be inserted into equipment that has a slot to accommodate them. The item must be at a minimum upgraded to blue level for a component to be used. Upgrade components, unlike other mods can only be applied only once. They are not able to be replaced or applied several times. Infusions and Enrichments are a kind of upgrade component used to upgrade non-amulet legendary or ascending equipment, as as some non-ascended items. Infusions and enrichments can be obtained by salvaging ascended equipment or by completing a mission within the Prophecies, Factions, and Nightfall campaigns. A prefix or suffix can be added to an upgrade, changing the name of the item it's applied to (for example 'Canthan Armor Insignia',' changes to Canthan Armor Minor Vigor). Some upgrades boost the Mark Level or Rarity, which allows players to create stronger versions of that equipment with less Upgrade Crystals than is required to achieve the same level of upgrade using normal methods. A 'boost' upgrade can alter the attack or defence attributes of a weapon, or armor. These upgrades are available to be crafted from the Portative Forging Station once the player has completed the cutscene, and defeats the Crazed Mechanical. They can be dropped by enemies while upgrading other gear or by buying them from the cash shop for 500 upgrade crystals each. The player can get up to five boost upgrades at a time. Each upgrade increases the chance that a higher-tier version of the item will drop during the next reset. This gives players an incentive to upgrade their gear even when they're not sure what will be improved after the reset. The process of upgrading an item could be expensive, and it is possible that the item will eventually become obsolete, or even break, in the event that the upgrade is unsuccessful. Upgrade Crystals and assist powder are also destroyed when the upgrade fails. This is mitigated by the availability of cash shop items that can double or even eliminate chances of failure, and a few upgrades that give an additional benefit when they are inserted into an item. Glyphs Glyphs are upgrade elements that can be placed in special sockets on the Paragon Board. item upgrading can boost the performance of nodes within a radius, and include any existing affixes. Glyphs can be upgraded in a variety of ways, and we recommend upgrading them to 15 levels as soon as possible. You will often find in the final game that placing Glyphs is the most effective way to upgrade your equipment. They are the only upgrade components which can be upgraded to level 15 and provide a significant boost to your power on the Paragon Board. Glyphs, which is the only upgrade component which can be removed without restriction and replaced with no restrictions, are the most common. The only exception is legendary equipment that requires a Black Lion Salvage Kit to salvage and then re-install. Each Glyph has a particular range of values can enhance a stat by, and the value is displayed when you choose the Glyph in your inventory. You can replace it with an Glyph that is of the same or higher rank to boost the value of the Glyph. There are Glyphs in the Black Lion Trading Post, as part of a Gem Store purchase or bundle with certain unlimited-use gathering tools, and through Faction Crypt raids. Each Faction Crypt can drop one of these Glyphs. There are also some rare glyphs which you can find in any of the Faction Crypts. After you have acquired the desired Glyphs you'll need them to be placed on your equipment. Each Glyph will grant a distinct bonus that boosts a particular set of stat nodes within a radius around the Glyph. It could be +40 for one of your primary stats, or +25 for two of your secondary stats, based on the Glyph. Utilizing a Glyph can boost all nodes that are linked to it, so you should try to place your Glyphs close to key nodes on the Graph to maximise the impact. For example an Druid should try to position their Glyphs close to their primary damage nodes but you should also think about placing them near crucial damage nodes as well. Leveling The upgrade system for items allows players to boost the stats of specific items by inserting upgraded components. This is known as “upping”. Each upgradeable item is assigned a level which determines the final stats. Upgraded items can be upgraded up to a maximum of 385. Each level of an item requires a different number of components to be reached and the costs for upgrading increase as the item gets advanced in level. Certain upgrades require an ingredient to be activated. This ingredient is obtained by making Upgrade Recipes. These recipes can be bought from NPCs, or on the upgrade tab of crafting tables. Each Upgrade Recipe that is completed results in a certain amount of Technology points. These points can be used to level the item. Once enough are earned, the upgrade will be claimed and the additional bonuses will be added to the item. When a player upgrades a piece of equipment the original item will be replaced by the new item. The same armor can be transformed into an weapon or shield when upgraded. The new item also has its own set bonus. This could be a disadvantage, as the item can increase in price even if you don't need it. The upgrades to items can be rerolled, if the player has enough tokens to be able to do so. The item will be replaced with an entirely new item that is based on a level 1 base and totally different bonuses. This can be useful however it shouldn't be done often as it can be a waste of resources. Some upgrades can increase their value, allowing players to customize their gear. Dolphin's Gift is a good example, since it grants an increase in power if the player is repeatedly in or leaves the water. This item can be upgraded several times, increasing the maximum roll each time by 10 increments. This item can be extremely valuable in PvP, as the best version of it can be worth between 20 and 50x its non-upp'd value. Requirements The item upgrader lets players increase the level of their equipment (armor, weapons, and trinkets) above ilvl385 by presenting the appropriate currency to the NPC. Upgrades to armor set pieces also improve the strength of their base defense and upgrades to weapon items increase their base damage and also increase their strength and dexterity. All items can be upgraded up to five times, except for hero gear that can be upgraded up to eight times. Every each time you upgrade an item, it is given the chance to fail. The rate of failure increases as you go beyond the maximum amount of upgrades. Failures can result in the item reverting to its initial state, which requires the player to purchase more resources than if they had stopped upgrading after the maximum number. If an item is not able to upgrade, the amount of accumulated experience in its growth bar is reset to zero. The item will also lose any bonuses it has gained, such as the chance to crit damage to attack, additional effects (such as an increase in healing over time or reloading speed). The player will be able to use their weapon or armor after the failure. Whenever 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 that it will be applied before any damage from attacks increases. A new attribute known as Slots has been added to the item definition and the value is computed every time an upgrade is made. The amount of resources needed to upgrade an item is based on the rarity rating as well as the number of upgrade slots. The cost of upgrading equipment that is not premium is equal to the value of the base item. For instance, a common item might have five upgrades at a cost. 25,600 Technology Points and 4x Quality Improvement Chance. Hero quality items will have an incredibly lower cost for each upgrade. Premium items could have different upgrade requirements from regular gear. For example, they may need less sowels, however they may require more minerals and orons. Whatever the case, players will have to visit the NPC [Armorthe ] Boboko in Central Flarine with each piece of equipment they wish to upgrade. In addition to the upgrade cost mentioned above, each equipment upgrade requires an individual amount of ingredients for upgrading.
