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 help you understand how to upgrade your gear. Upgrades to equipment provide a bonus on the item's stats. This bonus scales based on the rarity and strength of the upgrade component. Components Upgrade components can make your weapons and armour 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 high-tier salvage kits such as Black Lion Salvage Kit and Ascended Salvage Tool. Contrary to other products upgrade components, upgrade components aren't destroyed when removed from an item. Upgrade components are mostly used to upgrade an item however, they can also be used for other purposes. They can be stacked in order to increase the level of experience gained from upgrading existing weapons or gear. They can also be made to give additional bonuses. For instance, a specially created glyph can increase the chances of upgrading its target, and a boost upgrade will enhance the defense or attack property of a weapon, or armor. You can bind 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. Alternately, you can use the workbench to select an upgrade template. In either case, the item will be upgraded after enough upgrade components are gathered. Each component has a different experience multiplier that affects the amount of experience an item receives when it is upgraded with the component. Organic components, for example have an increased multiplier of experience than mechanical components. You should upgrade your organic components first until you reach the next level in the weapon or equipment and then switch to the mechanical upgrades. Each item comes with an upgrade maximum number that it is possible to receive. The number of upgradeable items is determined by their upgradeable rank and the kind of upgrade they can get. For example, the highest possible weapon upgrade is a tier 10 weapon. However, the most popular upgrade for weapons is a tier 6 weapon and an armor upgrade of tier 5. Sets A set is a set of items that all share the same bonus. Each item can be upgraded at the minimum once. The upgrade increases the bonuses that are guaranteed. The first time you upgrade an item, its primary stat will be +1. On subsequent upgrades, the primary stats are increased even more (for instance, +1 for 12+/13+/14+) and each time an item is upgraded one of its additional stats is increased randomly. Upgrading a weapon can also increase its damage base, which may be necessary for certain builds. However, weapons cannot be upgraded to a higher defense level than their regular base. It's possible to increase the value of specific sets and unique items by upgrading them, however they may not always be superior to a high-level Runeword. If you are upgrading an item with bonuses, the item can be rerolled one time and the guarantee will reset back to zero. The same power die is used to roll an item, just as it would be used to level it up. However, the new item has different bonuses. Upgrading can be done by visiting the NPC [Armor] Boboko in the Central Flarine. To upgrade an item, you will need a power die of each kind (Dice 4 or 6 drop from monsters 21+ and Giants; Dice 7 drops from bosses) and the right amount of Minerals and Erons. These are available at the crafting table or in the Ultra Collector, and can be purchased with Gold. The NPCs will also offer special rewards for each stage of the upgrade process. The reward can be rerolled a single time with the same materials as the original item. Rerolling If players have enough tokens for rerolling, they can reroll any item that they've accumulated during the game. When an upgraded item gets being rerolled, it can be exchanged for a level 1 version 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 are not refundable. The upgraded item will still come with the extra benefits of the previous one however its stats will be different too. In addition to rerolling items, players can also change the identity of any equipment by interacting with an upgrader NPC. This will change the identification from a weapon to armor or vice versa, while retaining its base stats and attributes that are required. The change is permanent and will affect all characters who own the gear in question. The player can also upgrade their item level for any equipment that is equipped. This is accomplished by interacting with an upgrader NPC and getting upgrade items. The cost will vary depending on the upgrade track, item type, and the number of crests. Each upgrade will add an additional 5% of damage to weapons. Upgrades can boost the capability of an item, but they can also reduce its quality. Therefore, it is important to find a balance between these two. Certain items aren't worth upgrading, while other items need to be upgraded to maximize their potential. For instance, a player might wish to upgrade a piece of breakpoint armor that comes with an interesting modifier ( percent chance of blocking or FHR) to see what it can be. Rerolling is a common practice in Genshin Impact and other gacha-based games. People use it to try to obtain the character or weapon that they wouldn't otherwise have. These items are time-consuming and costly to acquire, and the RNG doesn't always play nice. The only options are to invest real money or grind for a long time. Rerolling is very popular in Genshin Impact. Leveling When upgrading an item you can pick to increase the level of the weapon or armor. This feature isn't available in the current version of the game. I believe this feature was created to add some value to rare and expensive items. However, since most gear is replaced fairly quickly, and can only be upgraded by one level, you will usually replace it before it gets too old. It's also not worth it to upgrade items with gem sockets as the power of the gem will far outweigh the increased ilvl that comes with the upgrade. If you click on the upgrade option on an item, you will be presented with a small window displaying the upgrade template of the item as well as the crest and Valorstone costs to increase the item level. Weapons and armor will have different costs, with the latter typically being more costly. The upgrade template outlines the stats that can be added to an upgraded item as well as its current ilvl. The Crest and Valorstone costs are calculated based on the item's current ilvl as well as the upgrade template. Additionally, the ilvl of the new upgraded item will be reduced by the upgrade template's lvl decrease percentage. For instance weapons with an 8% upgrade decrease will reduce its value by 8-8%. In addition to the increase in ilvl base it will also receive upgrades in other stats like critical strike damage, PvE damage, dodge, block and parry rating. Those increases are also dependent on the upgrade template. The amount of defense and damage the item will receive when it is leveled can be shown below the upgrade cost and decrease percentages in the upgrade template window. All weapons and armor, except practice equipment, gain these stats upon leveling up. The market determines the value of these stats. A weapon or armor with perfect rolls can fetch a much higher price than a non-upp’d version. Similar is the case for other armor pieces, like tiaras or circlets.
