Why We Do We Love Item Upgrading And You Should, Too

Path of Exile Item Upgrading

In Path of Exile, item upgrading is one of the most effective ways to upgrade your gear without relying on large-ticket drops or trade. This article will teach you how to upp your items efficiently.

Upgrades to equipment provide an increase in the item's stats. This bonus scales depending on the rarity and level of the upgrade component.

Components

Upgrade components are the items that improve your armor and weapons more effective. You can get them from the destruction of enemies, finding them in item spheres or purchasing them from karma sellers. You can also salvage them from equipment that has the components or by using high-tier salvage kits such as Black Lion Salvage Kit and Ascended Salvage Tool. Upgrade components are not destroyed by removing them from an item.

The main function of upgrade components is to enable an item to be upgraded, however, they also serve other functions. They can be stacked to boost the level or experience gained from upgrading existing weapons or gear. They can also be made to provide extra bonuses. A crafted glyph can increase the chance of upgrading its target, while boost upgrades increase the defense or attack capabilities of the weapon.

You can connect an upgrade template to an item by selecting it from the edition GUI. This will display the upgrade components to which the item can be upgraded. You can also use the workbench to selecting an upgrade template. In either scenario, the item will be upgraded once enough upgrade components are gathered.

Each component has its own experience multiplier, which determines the amount of experience an item will gain when it upgrades with that component. For instance, organic components have a more experience multipliers than mechanical ones. You should upgrade organic components first until you reach the next rank in the weapon or equipment, and then switch to the mechanical upgrades.

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

Sets

A set is a collection of objects which all have the same bonus. Each item can be upgraded at least once. The upgrade boosts the guaranteed bonuses. The first time you upgrade the set piece or weapon, it will receive an increase of +1 to its primary stat. After subsequent upgrades, the primary stats will be enhanced even more (for instance, +1 for 12+/13+/14+) and every time an item is upgraded one of its additional stats increases randomly.

The upgrade of a weapon can increase the damage base, which may be necessary for certain builds. Weapons aren't upgraded to give greater maximum defence rolls than their base. Upgrades can be a great way to improve the value of a set and unique items, but it is important to keep in mind that they may not be superior to a high-level runeword in any build.

If you are upgrading an item with bonuses it can be rerolled once and the guarantee will reset back to 0. The same amount of power die is used to roll an item as it would be to increase its level. However, the new item has different bonuses. Upgrading can be done at the NPC [Armor] Boboko in the Central Flarine. To upgrade an item you will need the appropriate amount Minerals and Erons, as well as a power dice of each kind. These can be bought with Gold at the crafting table, or in the Ultra Collection. The NPC will also provide a special reward for each tier of the upgrade process. This reward can be rerolled once, and the reroll will be made using the same materials used in the original item.

Rerolling

If players have enough to reroll tokens, they are able to play rerolling any item they've acquired during the game. When an upgraded item is to be rerolled, it will be exchanged for the version that is level 1 of the same item in a different set. Reroll tokens can be purchased at the store for small amounts of in-game currency, however they cannot be refunded. The new item will have the same bonus features as the original, but the stats will also be different.

Players can change the identity of their equipment as well as rerolling it by interacting with an upgrader NPC. This will change the identity from an armored weapon to a weapon, or vice versa, while retaining its base stats and attributes that are required. The change is permanent and will affect all characters that have the gear in question.

Players can also boost the level of their item on any equipped device by obtaining upgrade components and communicating with the upgrader NPC of the item. This will cost a certain number of crests and Valorstones depending on the upgrade track and the item type. For weapons, each upgrade will add five percent to the damage.

The upgrade of an item can make it more powerful however, it can also lower its quality. Therefore, it is important to strike a balance between the two. Some items may not be worth upgrading however, others will need to be upgraded in order to reach their potential. For example an individual player may wish to upgrade a piece breakpoint armor that has an interesting modifier ( percent chance of blocking or FHR) to see what it can be.

Rerolling is a popular practice in Genshin Impact and other gacha-based games. People use it to try to obtain a character or weapon they cannot otherwise get. These items can be costly and time-consuming and the RNG gods do not always want to cooperate. The only alternative is to invest money or grind a lot. For Casesgg , rerolling is a popular option in Genshin Impact.

Leveling

When upgrading an item you can level up the weapon or armor. However, this feature does absolutely nothing in the current game. I believe this feature was designed to give value to rare and expensive items. However, since the majority of items are replaced quite quickly, and it can only be upgraded one level, you will generally replace it before it gets too old. It's not worth it to level items that have gem sockets since the value of the gem will far outweigh the higher ilvl that comes with the upgrade.

You will see a small box when you click on the upgrade option for an item. It will display the template of the item, the Crest, as well as the Valorstone cost to raise the level of the item. Armor and weapons will have different costs, with the former typically being more costly. The upgrade template lists the stats that will be added to an upgraded item as well as its current ilvl.

The crest and Valorstone costs are calculated by analyzing the item's current ilvl and the upgrade template. The ilvl will also be decreased by the upgrade templates lvl reduction percentage. For instance, a weapon with an 8% upgrade decrease will decrease its count by 8-8%.

The item will get upgrades to other stats, such as critical strike damage, PvE damage and block, parry and dodge rating in addition to the base level. Those increases are also based on the upgrade template.

The amount of defense and damage the item is able to receive when it is leveled can be observed below the upgrade cost and decrease percentages in the upgrade template window. All armor and weapons, except practice equipment, get these stats once they've been leveled up. The market will determine the value of these stats. A weapon or armor with perfect rolls can command more than an unupp'd version. This is also true for other armor pieces like circlets and Tiaras.
