Path of Exile Item Upgrading

The best way to upgrade your gear in Path of Exile is through upgrading your items. This allows you to upgrade your gear without having rely on expensive trades or drops. This article will teach you how to upgrade your items efficiently.

Upgrades in equipment can add an increase to the item's base stats. The amount of bonus varies depending on the rarity and quality of the upgrade component.

Components

Upgrade components are the parts that improve your armor and weapons better. They can be obtained by fighting off enemies, locating them in item spheres or buying them from karma merchants. You can also salvage them from equipment that has the components, or by utilizing high-end salvage kits like Black Lion Salvage Kit and Ascended Salvage Tool. In contrast to other items upgrade components, upgrade components aren't destroyed when removed from an item.

The main purpose of upgrade components is to allow an item to be upgraded but they also serve other functions. They can be stacked in order to boost the level or experience gained by upgrading existing equipment or weapons. They can be forged for extra bonuses. A crafted glyph can increase the upgrade chances of its target, and an upgrade boosts the attack or defense capabilities of a weapon.

You can connect an upgrade template to an item by selecting it from the edition GUI. This will display the upgrade components that the item can be updated. Alternatively, you can use the workbench to select an upgrade template. In either case, an Item upgrader kit will be upgraded once enough upgrade components have been collected.

Each component has a different experience multiplier, which affects the amount of experience an item upgrader kit receives when it upgrades with that component. For instance, organic components give more experience multipliers than mechanical ones. It is recommended to upgrade the organic components first, until you reach the next rank in the weapon or equipment, and then move on to mechanical upgrades.

In addition to the experience multiplier Each item also comes with the maximum number of upgrades that it can receive. The number of upgrades is determined by the rank that can be upgraded and the type of upgrade for the upgradeable item level upgrade. For instance, the most expensive possible weapon upgrade is a weapon with tier 10. However, the most commonly used upgrade for weapons is the tier 6 weapon and a tier 5 armor upgrade.

Sets

A set is a collection of items that have bonuses. Each item can be upgraded at the least once. The upgrade will increase the guaranteed bonuses. When you first upgrade an item, its primary stat will be +1. In subsequent upgrades the stats of the primary one will be boosted a bit further (for example, +1 to 12+/13+/14+) Every time you upgrade the item it will have one of its additional stats will be increased randomly.

Upgrades can also increase a weapon's damage base. This could be crucial for certain builds. However, weapons are not upgraded to have a greater maximum defense roll than their normal base. It is a good method to increase the value of certain sets and unique items, but it's important to remember that they may not be more effective than a high-level raneword in any build.

If you're upgrading an item with bonuses it can be rerolled a single time, and its guarantee will reset back to 0. The same power die is used to roll an item, just as it would be used to upgrade it. However the new item comes with different bonuses. Upgrades can be made through the NPC [ArmorBoboko. Boboko in Central Flarine. To upgrade an item you will require the required amount of Minerals and Erons and a power dice of each type. These are available at the crafting table or the Ultra Collector, and can be purchased using Gold. The NPC will also offer an additional reward for each tier of the upgrade process. The reward can be rerolled a single time using the same materials as original item.

Rerolling

A player is able to roll any item they have acquired during the game, provided they have enough reroll tokens to be able to do so. When an upgraded item is to be rerolled, it will be exchanged for an equivalent level 1 version of the same item from a different set. Reroll tokens can be bought from the store for small amounts of in-game currency. However, they aren't refundable. The new item upgraded will have the same benefits of the previous one, but its stats will differ also.

Players can change the identity of equipment in addition to changing it's roll by interfacing with a NPC upgrader. This will change the identification from a weapon to an armor, or reverse the process. The base requirements and stats remain the same. The change will be permanent and will affect all characters who have the gear.

The player can also upgrade the level of an item for any equipped equipment. This can be done by talking to an upgrader NPC and getting upgrade items. The cost will differ based on the upgrade track, item type, and the number of crests. For weapons, each step up will add an additional 5percent to the damage.

Upgrades can boost the capability of an item, however they also can decrease its quality. Therefore, it is important to balance the two. Some items are not worth upgrading, while others need to be upgraded to make them more effective. A player might want to upgrade breakpoint armor with an interesting modifier ( percent block chance or FHR) in order to see what else it can become.

Rerolling is a common practice in Genshin Impact and other gacha-based games. People do it to try to obtain the character or weapon they would not otherwise be able to acquire. These items are time-consuming and costly to acquire and the RNG does not always work in a positive way. The only alternatives are to spend money or grind a lot. For this reason, rerolling is a very popular choice in Genshin Impact.

Leveling

When upgrading an item you can pick to level up the weapon or armor. But, this feature does absolutely nothing in the current game. I think it was meant to be a way to give some value to rare items, but since equipment generally drops quickly and is only upgraded after a certain amount of levels and you'll typically replace the item before it gets old enough. It's also not worth upgrading items using gem sockets because the power of the stone will outweigh any increase in the level of.

When you click on the upgrade option on an item, you'll be presented with a small window displaying the item's upgrade template and the cost of crest and Valorstone to increase the item level. The cost will differ between armor and weapons and the latter typically costing more than the latter. The upgrade template lists the stats to be added to an upgraded item, along with its current base ilvl.

The cost of the Valorstone and crest is calculated using the current Ilvl of the item and the upgrade templates. The ilvl is also reduced by the upgrade templates lvl reduction percentage. For example, an upgrade of 8% will reduce the ilvl of a weapon by 8 to 8percent.

In addition to the base ilvl increase the item will also receive upgrades in other stats, such as critical strike damage, PvE damage, block, parry and dodge rating. These enhancements are also based on the upgrade template.

In the upgrade template you can check the amount of damage or defense the item will suffer after being leveled up. This is displayed below the cost and upgrade percentages. In addition to equipment for practice, all items and armor get the same stats when they are upgraded. The market will determine the value of these stats. A weapon or armor that has perfect rolls can command more than an unupp'd version. Similar is the case for other pieces of armor like tiaras and circlets.
