20 Things You Need To Be Educated About Item Upgrading
World of Warcraft - item upgrades Upgrading
The upgrade of an item upgrader mod allows players to boost an item's gear score up to 700, and then add a final perk. Items can be upgraded if they're in your inventory and you decide to take them to the kiln.
Certain items are worth upgrading due to their unique stats. (For instance, a perfectly rolled breakpoint armor used in melee PvP). Other items such as weapons aren't changed much after an upgrade, and aren't worth it.
Weapons
Upgrades to weapons can boost their numerical stats, like attack damage, crit chance, and PvE/PvP damage. Weapons also have an unchanging bonus that increases the damage they deal per second. In addition there are many weapons with a set bonus that activates when three or more of the same weapon are equipped on a unit. In some instances, this bonus can add up to more than the amount of damage that a weapon upgrades on its own.
The cost of upgrading a weapon varies on its rarity as well as its current level. For instance an item upgrader kit with a rating of +2 will require two regular Smithing Stones to upgrade while the +3 model requires four. The number of stones required to upgrade a gun will increase until it needs a higher level of Smithing Stones. At that point, it will reset back to one.
Upgrades to weapons will also reroll the stats of their base. While this is usually a good thing but it can also have negative effects as well. Upgrades can make things impossible to use, unless you are very lucky.
Armor items can be upgraded to increase their stats. This can increase the defense of a helm or chest while belts and gloves will increase their required strength and agility. Armor has a rerolling feature for its Enhanced Defense%. This means that it may roll down to a lower value.
The upgrade item template for a weapon shows the new stats it will gain when upgraded, along with their respective values. This means that the weapon will gain 3% attack damage if it is upgraded from an 8 attack damage sword to an 11 attack damage sword. The 3% difference does not mean that the weapon will be hit 3 times less, as it is an absolute number.
Rerolling a weapon is possible by pressing the green button on the item upgrader menu with the arrows that are circling. This will reroll an item and alter its stats, but not reset the weapon's levels, or bind it to account status.
Armor
A few tweaks to your armor can make huge differences in your capacity to withstand. Certain sets can offer MASSIVE increases in poison, curse, fire and magic resistance, which can make traversing tough areas a breeze. Generally speaking, the more defense your character has the more value you will get out of each point of health therefore it is important to improve your armor as often as you can.
You can upgrade your armor by visiting one of the Great Fairy Fountains. There are four Great Fairy Fountains available in the game and to unlock them all, you have to complete an additional quest that involves the Stable Trotters. After you've completed your main quest, and the corresponding fountains, you'll be able to talk to any Great Fairy in order to unlock the armor upgrade menu.
Each piece of armor can be upgraded up to three levels, and the amount of material and Rupees required to complete each level will differ. You'll need anywhere between three Red Chuchu jelly and 10 Rupees to upgrade the first armor piece, and anywhere between five Rubies or ten Fire-Breath Lizalfos Horns to upgrade the next one. For instance the Champion Leathers could be upgraded to +5 defense, which allows you to keep pace with a good-sized group of enemies in the majority of cold conditions, and the Snowquill Headdress can be upgraded to +20 defense, providing you enough protection to withstand the full-on assault with a few friends.
You can't upgrade armor in the same way as weapons. If you're playing as a Warrior then you should concentrate on upgrading your armor for physical power or spell power. You should also save your armor upgrades to upgrade the armor you'll still be wearing at the end of the story, like the Ring of Lightning, Spectral Shield or the mask you use in the final boss fight, the Monter Parts Merchant Mask.
By giving the jeweler 10 Twinkling Titanite in Gerudo Town, you can gain some benefits to your armor. It is generally recommended to save these upgrades to the weapon you'll be using to win the game. For instance the Longsword or Battleaxe. However, it's beneficial to have some upgrades for the helmets and chest armor so that you can sneak around some monsters.
Potions
Potions are liquids that, when consumed by the player, provide an immediate effect. There are five kinds of potions, each having specific effects and durations. Certain potions can be upgraded, increasing their effectiveness. Alternatively the effects of certain potions can be enhanced by adding redstone or glowstone dust them.
Upgrades to your potion require a specific amount XP. This can be obtained by crafting them on a table, or by storing them in the Alchemist chest. However, the upgrade price changes depending on what type of potion you want to upgrade, and also on the item's Mark Level and Rarity.
To upgrade a potion to the next level, right-click on it in your inventory and select the "Upgrade" option from the menu. This will open an GUI which allows you to select the potions that you wish to upgrade, and the amount of experience they will offer when upgraded. You can upgrade potions in batches up to five at a time and their XP will be added to the total XP you currently have.
Once a poton is upgraded in quality, it will not deteriorate in the event that you use it again or break the bottle in which it is stored. You can also change the name of the potion by clicking it in your inventory.
There were some changes to the mechanics of potion in version 1.7.2. Splash potions for instance are now available with a time of zero, not the 22.5 seconds displayed on the Item Upgrader kit hover display. The table of potion now crafted from four Wood Planks, and two Glass. It can now be utilized in both Survival and Bedrock. Bedrock Edition potions are not compatible with cauldrons like Java Edition. The same is true for the use of a potion in an empty cauldron. This will deplete the liquid, and then refill the bottle.
Finally, there are lingering potions that are brewed with dragon breath and splash potions. Redstone is also added to lingering potions to extend their effect. The table of potions is arranged more like the Java Edition, and new potions were introduced, including the potion of leaping, the decomposition potion, as well as turtle master potions.
Trinkets
A trinket is a small and cheap ornament or piece of jewelry. It can also refer to an object or ornament that serves a purpose, but isn't important as a trinket. In certain cultures, trinkets are used to signify affection or friendship, particularly between family members.
In addition to weapons, armor and potions, players can upgrade their trinkets. Upgrades can be made by paying the appropriate currency to an upgrade vendor. Trinkets unlike other items that can be upgraded can be swapped at will without losing stats.
The upgrade vendors are found in major cities and in the capital of each zone, as well as in some instances in dungeons. Upgrades for trinkets can be purchased with gold, tokens, or fragments from a rare trinket.
Upgrades are a cost-effective alternative to buying a brand new trinket. A player can upgrade a trinket for as little as 12 tokens. The new trinket will come with the same base ilvl of the older one, and include an additional 1% upgrade bonus.
Once the old Trinkets are no longer useful, they can be upgraded. This allows players to increase both their power and value over time. They can also be traded between players, making them an extremely popular alternative to gold.
In general, players should upgrade their top-priority items first. This means that the best-in slot items for each class are first upgraded, followed by their secondary gear, and then other equipment that they won't replace anytime soon (such as a ring or an cloak). Players should also consider their class's preferred stats when deciding which items to upgrade. If Haste and Crit are two of the most important stats to tank players, then they should upgrade their chest, helm and shoulders.
After they've become unusable trinkets are able to be upgraded to a higher level. The upgraded trinket will give you an additional 1% bonus. A re-upgrade, however, will destroy the trinket unless it can be saved using the help of a Black Lion Salvage Kit, or a higher tier salvage tool. Upgrades to trinkets can be more expensive than other upgrades but still less expensive than buying an entirely new trinket.
