Path of Exile Item Upgrading

In Path of Exile, item upgrading (additional reading) is one of the Best item upgrade ways to improve your gear without relying on large-ticket drops or trade. This article will teach you how to upgrade your items.

Upgrades to equipment provide an increase to the item's base stats. The bonus is based on the rarity and quality of the upgrade component.

Components

Upgrade components are the things that make your weapons and armor better. They can be found by destroying enemies, purchasing them from karma vendors or finding them in items-spheres. You can also get them from equipment that contains the components or by using salvage kits of high-end quality, such as Black Lion Salvage Kit and Ascended Salvage Tool. Contrary to other products upgrades aren't destroyed when removed from an item.

The main purpose of upgrade components is to allow an item to be upgraded however, they also serve other functions. They can be used to increase the level of experience gained by upgrading existing equipment or weapons. They can be forged for additional benefits. For instance, a designed glyph will increase the upgrade item chance of its target, and an upgrade boost will enhance the defense or attack property of a weapon, or armor.

Selecting an upgrade template from the GUI will allow you to connect it to an item. This will display the upgrade components to which the item can be updated. You can also use the workbench to selecting an upgrade template. In either scenario, the item will be upgraded once enough upgrade components have been collected.

Each component has its own experience multiplier that affects the amount of experience an item gets when it is upgraded with that component. For instance, organic components give a higher experience multiplier than mechanical ones. It is recommended to upgrade your organic components first until you reach the next rank in the weapon or equipment, and then switch to the mechanical upgrades.

Each item comes with an upgrade limit number that can be received. The number of upgrades is determined by its upgradeable rank and the upgrade type of the upgradeable item. The highest upgrade possible is a weapon that is the tier 10. The most commonly used upgrade is a gun with tier 6 and a armor upgrade of tier 5.

Sets

A set is a set of items that all share the same bonus. Each item in the set can be upgraded at least once, and the upgrade increases the guaranteed bonuses. The first time you upgrade a set piece or weapon is that it will be given an increase of +1 to its primary stat. After subsequent upgrades the stats of the primary one will be boosted a little further (for instance, +1 to 12+/13+/14+) Each time you upgrade the item it will have one of its additional stats is increased randomly.

Upgrades to a weapon may increase the damage base, which can be necessary for certain builds. However, weapons can't be upgraded to a higher maximum defense roll than their base. It's possible to increase the value of certain sets and unique items by upgrading them, however they're not always superior to a high-level Runeword.

If you're upgrading an item that has a bonus, the item can be rerolled a single time and the guarantee will reset to 0. Rerolling is the same amount of power dice as leveling an item upgrader up, but the upgraded item will come with additional bonuses. The NPC [ArmorBoboko Boboko can upgrade your armor in Central Flarine. To upgrade an item you will need the appropriate amount Minerals and Erons and a power dice of each kind. These are available at the crafting table or in the Ultra Collector and are available for purchase with Gold. The NPCs will also offer special rewards for each level of the upgrade process. This reward can be rerolled once and will be made using the same materials used in the original item.

Rerolling

A player can reroll any item acquired during the game, provided they have enough tokens to be able to do so. If an upgraded item is being rerolled, it can be exchanged for the version that is level 1 of the same item from a different set. Reroll tokens are available at the store for a small amount of in-game currency. They are not refundable. The new item will have the same bonus features like the first, however the stats will be different.

In addition to rerolling items, players can also change the identity of any equipment by interfacing with an upgrader NPC. The equipment's identification will change from a weapons to armor or reverse the process. The basic requirements and stats remain the same. The change is permanent and will affect all characters that have the gear in question.

The player can also upgrade the level of an item for any equipment that is equipped. This is accomplished by talking to an upgrader NPC, and then obtaining upgrade items. This will cost a certain amount of crests as well as Valorstones depending on the upgrade track and the item type. In the case of weapons, each step will add 5percent to the damage.

An upgrade will make it more powerful, but it will also decrease its quality. It is therefore important to keep both in check. Certain items might not be worth upgrading at all however, others will need to be upgraded in order to maximize their potential. For instance one player might want to upgrade a piece of breakpoint armor with an interesting modifier ( percent chance of blocking or FHR) to see what it can become.

Rerolling is a standard practice in Genshin Impact and other gacha-based games. People use it in order to get an item or character that they wouldn't otherwise have. The process of obtaining these items can be costly and time-consuming, and the RNG gods do not always want to play ball. The only other options are to invest money or grind a lot. For this reason, rerolling is a very popular choice in Genshin Impact.

Leveling

When upgrading an item you can choose to level up the weapon or armor. However, this feature is absolutely nothing in the current game. I believe it was designed to to give some value to rare items, but as the majority of gear drops quickly and is only upgraded after a certain amount of levels, you'll usually replace the item before it becomes old enough. It's also not worthwhile to upgrade items that have gem sockets since the value of the gem will far outweigh the increase in ilvl with the upgrade.

You will see a small window when you click the upgrade option for an item. It will display the template of the item, the Crest, as well as the cost of Valorstone to increase the level of the item. Armor and weapons will have different costs, with the latter generally being more expensive. The upgrade template outlines the stats that will be added to the upgraded item. It also lists its current base ilvl.

The cost of the Valorstone and crest is calculated using the current Ilvl of the item as well as the upgrade templates. The ilvl will also be reduced by the upgrade templates reduction percentage for lvl. For instance the weapon that has an increase of 8% will decrease its ilvl by 8 - 8%.

In addition to the base ilvl boost the item will also be upgraded in other stats like critical strike damage, PvE damage and block, parry and dodge rating. Those increases are also built on the upgrade template.

In the upgrade template you can determine the amount of damage or defense an item will suffer after it is leveled up. This is shown below the cost as well as the upgrade percentages. All weapons and armor that are not practice equipment get these stats when they level up. The market will determine the value of these stats. A weapon or armor with perfect rolls can command a much higher price than a non-upp’d version. Similar is the case for other pieces of armor, like tiaras or circlets.
