World of Warcraft - Item Upgrading

The upgrade option lets players boost the gear rating of an item by up 700 points, and then add a final bonus. Items can be upgraded by having them in inventory before heading to the kiln.

Certain items can be upgraded to benefit from their unique stats (like perfect broken point armour that is rolled for melee PvP) while others like weapons do not vary greatly post upgrade, and therefore aren't worth upgrading.

Weapons

Upgrades to weapons can boost their numerical stats, such as attack damage, crit probability and PvE/PvP damage. Weapons also have a flat bonus that increases the damage they deal per second. In addition, many weapons have a set bonus that activates when three or more of the same weapon are present on a single unit. This bonus may exceed the damage that a weapon upgrade can do on its own.

The cost of upgrading a weapon's capabilities is contingent on the nature of the weapon as well as its current level. For example an item upgrader with a rating of +2 will require two regular Smithing Stones to upgrade while a +3 requires four. The number of stones required to upgrade a gun will increase until it requires more Smithing Stones. At that point, it will reset back to one.

Upgrades to weapons will also alter the stats of their base. While this is usually beneficial, it can have some negative effects as well. In the case of items that are only used in a particular build (Whistant's shield for FB Sorcs, for example) upgrading them can make them unusable unless you have an extremely lucky roll.

Armor items can be upgraded to increase their stats. For example, if you upgrade chests or helms it will boost the defense of its base, while a belt and gloves will enhance their required strength and dexterity. Armor also has the option of rerolling its Enhanced Defense percentage, which means that it may reroll to a lower value.

The upgrade template of a weapon will display the new stats it will gain when upgrading, along with the relative value of those stats. This means that a weapon will gain 3% attack damage if it is upgraded from an 8 attack damage sword to an 11 attack damage sword. However the 3% does not mean that it will hit for 3 times less often as it is an absolute number.

A weapon can be rerolled by pressing the green button with arrows that circle in the item menu. This will roll an item upgrader kit and change its statistics, but it will not reset the weapon's levels or tie it to the account status.

Armor

A few tweaks to your armor can make a huge difference in your ability to endure. Certain sets offer massive increases in poison or curse, fire, and magic resistance, making the journey through difficult terrain a breeze. In general, the more defense you have on your character, the more health you can get from each point. So, it's best to upgrade your armor.

To improve your armor, head to one of the Great Fairy Fountains in the game. There are four Great Fairy Fountains available in the game and in order to unlock each one you must complete an additional quest involving the Stable Trotters. After you've completed the main quest and the associated fountains, you'll have the option of talking to any Great Fairy in order to unlock the armor upgrade menu.

The amount of materials needed to upgrade each piece of armor is different. In general, you'll be looking at anything from three to ten Red Chuchu jellies and 10 Rupees for the first upgrade, and anywhere between five Rubies and 10 Fire-Breath Lizalfos Horns for each subsequent one. For example, the Champion Leathers can be upgraded to +5 defense, which allows you to keep up with a good-sized group of enemies in the majority of cold environments, and the Snowquill Headdress can be upgraded to +20 defense, granting you enough protection to withstand the full-on assault with a handful of friends.

Be aware that armor can't be upgraded in the same manner as weapons, so you'll want to work on enhancing it to increase physical power if you're a Warrior or Spell Power when you're a Mage. It's also a good idea to save your armor upgrades for the armor you'll wear at the end of the game, such as the Ring of Lightning and Spectral Shield or the helmet you'll wear for the final boss fight, the Monter Parts Merchant's mask.

You can also gain benefits to your armor by presenting the jeweler at Gerudo Town 10 Twinkling Titanite. It is generally recommended to save these upgrades for the weapon you'll use to beat the game. For instance, the Longsword or Battleaxe. It's nevertheless beneficial to have some upgrades for the armor on your chest and helmets so that you can escape some monsters.

Potions

Potions are liquids that, when consumed by the player, provide an immediate effect for a short period of time. There are five types of potions, each with different effects and durations. Some potions can be upgraded, increasing their effectiveness. You can also increase the effects of certain potions by including glowstone dust and redstone.

Potion upgrades cost a certain amount of XP, which can be earned by crafting them on a table or the Alchemist's chest. The price of upgrades varies based on the type of potion and the item upgrade's Rarity and Mark Level.

To upgrade a potion, right-click on it in your inventory and choose the "Upgrade" option from the menu. This will open an GUI that allows you to select the potion you wish to upgrade, and the amount of experience they will offer when upgraded. You can upgrade potions in batches of up to five at once, and their XP will be added to the total amount of XP you have.

Once a potion is upgraded, it will not degrade until you re-use it, or break the bottle it is stored in. You can also rename the potion by clicking it in your inventory.

Version 1.7.2 brought a few changes to the way potions are used. Splash potions, for example have now a duration of zero, not the 22.5 seconds displayed on the hover display of the item. The table of potion can now be crafted with four Wood Planks and two Glass. This allows it to be used by players in Survival and Bedrock. In contrast to the Java Edition, Bedrock edition potions cannot be mixed in cauldrons. The same applies to using a potion within the cauldron that is filled. This will deplete the potion and refill the bottle.

Lastly, there are now lingering potions that are made using splash and dragon breath potions. Redstone can also be added to potions that are lingering to increase their effects. The potion table is now laid out more in line with the Java Edition, and new potions were added such as potion of leaping, potion of decomposition, and turtle master potions.

Trinkets

A trinket is an ornament that is small and inexpensive or piece of jewelry. It could be a reference to an object or decoration that serves a function but is not particularly significant like a trinket. In some cultures, trinkets are used to signify affection or friendship, particularly between family members.

Trinkets can be upgraded by players in addition to weapons and armor, as well as potions. Upgrades can be obtained by paying the appropriate currency to an upgrade vendor. In contrast to other upgrades for items trinkets, trinkets can be traded out at any time without losing their stats.

The upgrade vendors can be found in major cities and in the capital of each zone, as well as in in dungeons. Upgrades for trinkets are offered using tokens, gold, or fragments from trinkets that are rare.

Upgrading a trinket is an affordable alternative to buying an entirely new one. A player can upgrade a trinket with just 12 tokens. The new trinket has the same base level as the old trinket but it also comes with an additional bonus of 1% upgrade.

Trinkets can be upgraded when they're not needed and allows players to increase their power and value over time. They can be traded between players, making them an alternative to gold.

In general players should make upgrades to their most important items first. This typically means the top-of-the-line items for their class, followed by their secondaries and then other gear items that they will not be replacing soon (for instance rings or cloaks). Players should also consider their class's preferred stats when selecting the items to upgrade. For instance, if Haste and Crit are the two most important stats for a tank, they should prioritize upgrading their chest, helm, shoulders, and belt.

Once they have become useless trinkets can be upgraded to a greater level. The upgraded trinket will give you an additional 1percent bonus. However, a re-upgrade is likely to ruin the previous trinket until it is saved using the Black Lion Salvage Kit or an additional salvage tool of higher quality. This means upgrading trinkets is more expensive than other upgrades, but is still less expensive than buying a new one.
