World of Warcraft - Item Upgrading

The item upgrade allows players to boost the gear rating of an item up 700 points, and then add a bonus. Items can be upgraded if they are in your inventory and you take them to the Kiln.

Certain items are worth upgrading because of their distinctive stats. (For example, a perfectly broken point armor that is rolled can be used in melee PvP). Other items, like weapons don't change much after an upgrade and therefore aren't worth the effort.

Weapons

Upgrades to weapons can improve their numerical stats, like attack damage, crit chance, and PvE/PvP damage. Weapons also come with a flat bonus that increases their damage per second. In addition there are many weapons with a set bonus which is activated when three or more of the same weapon are equipped on a unit. This bonus may be more than the damage that an upgrade can do on its own.

The cost of upgrading a weapon is based on the quality of the weapon and its current level. For instance, a +2 weapon will require two regular Smithing Stones to upgrade while a +3 requires four. The number of stones needed to upgrade the gun will increase until it needs more Smithing Stones. At that point it will reset to one.

Upgrading weapons will also reroll their base stats. While this is usually beneficial, it can have some negative consequences too. Upgrades can make things impossible to use, unless you are extremely lucky.

Armor items can be upgraded to increase their performance. This will increase the defense of a helm or chest as well as belts and gloves. These will increase their required strength and agility. Armor offers a rerolling option for its Enhanced Defense percent. This means that it is able to reroll down to a lower value.

The upgrade template of a weapon will show the new stats that it will gain when upgrading, along with the relative values of those stats. This means that a change from an 8 attack-damage sword to an 11-attack-damage sword will result in the weapon gaining an attack damage of 3. The 3% does not mean that the weapon will strike 3 times less, as it is an absolute number.

A weapon can also be rerolled using the green button that has circling arrows in the item menu. This will roll an item and change its statistics, but it will not reset the weapon's levels or tie it to the account status.

Armor

Adding a few upgrades to your armor could make a huge differences in your capacity to withstand. Certain sets provide massive boosts to poison, curse, fire and magic resistance, which makes the journey through difficult terrain a breeze. In general, the greater defense your character has, the more value you can get from each point of health, so it's important to improve your armor as much as you can.

You can upgrade your armor by visiting one of the Great Fairy Fountains. There are four Great Fairy Fountains in the game and in order to unlock them all, you must complete a side quest that involves the Stable Trotters. After you've completed the main quest and the associated fountains, you'll be able to talk to any Great Fairy in order to unlock the armor upgrade menu.

Each piece of armor can be upgraded to three levels, and the amount of material and Rupees required to complete each level will differ. You'll require anything from three Red Chuchu jellies and 10 Rupees to upgrade the initial armor piece, and between five Rubies or ten Fire-Breath Lizalfos Horns to upgrade each subsequent one. For instance the Champion Leathers could be upgraded to +5 defense, which allows you to keep pace with a decent-sized group of enemies in the majority of cold environments and the Snowquill Headdress can be upgraded up to +20 defense, providing you enough protection to survive a full on raid with a few of your friends.

It isn't possible to upgrade armor the same as weapons. If you're playing as a Warrior then you should concentrate on upgrading your armor to increase physical strength or spell power. 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 battle, the Monter Parts Merchant's mask.

By giving the jeweler 10 Twinkling Titanite in Gerudo Town in Gerudo Town, you can gain some benefits to your armor. Generally, you'll want to keep these upgrades for the weapon you'll be using to win the game, like the Longsword, Battleaxe or Warhammer, but it can be beneficial to have a few upgrades to your chest armor and helmets to allow you to stealth around certain monsters.

Potions

Potions are liquids that, when consumed by the participant, produce a temporary effect. There are five types of potions, each with particular effects and durations. Some potions can be upgraded, enhancing their effectiveness. You can also increase the effects of certain potions by adding redstone dust and glowstone dust.

Potion upgrades cost a specific amount of XP, which can be earned by making them using a craft table or in the chest of the Alchemist. The price of upgrades is dependent on the type of potion you'd like to upgrade, as well as on the item upgrader's Mark Level and rarity.

To upgrade a potion, right-click on it in your inventory and select the "Upgrade" option from the menu. This will open a GUI that allows you to choose the potion that you would like to upgrade and the amount of experience they will give you when upgraded. You can upgrade potions in batches 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 be degraded until you use it again or break the bottle it is stored in. Clicking on the potion in your inventory will allow you to change the name of the potion.

Version 1.7.2 introduced a few changes to the mechanism of potions. Splash potions, for example have now a duration of 0:08 instead of the 22.5 seconds shown on the hover display for the item upgrade. The potion table is now made of four Wood Planks, and two Glass. This allows it to be utilized by players playing Survival and Bedrock. In contrast to the Java Edition, Bedrock edition potions are not able to be mixed in cauldrons. Similarly, using a potion on a full cauldron drains the liquid and refills the bottle.

Finally, there are simmering potions that are made using splash and dragon breath potions. In the same way, a lingering potion effect can be extended by adding redstone to it. The potion table has been rearranged to appear more like the Java Edition. New potions are also added, like the potion of leaping and decomposition.

Trinkets

A trinket can be described as a small and affordable ornament or piece of jewelry. It may also refer to a piece of art or a decoration that serves a function but is not particularly important such as a trinket. In some cultures, a trinket can be used to express affection or friendship between family members.

Trinkets can be upgraded by players as well as weapons or armor, as well as potions. Upgrades can be made by paying the appropriate currency to an upgrade vendor. Unlike other item upgrades trinkets are able to be exchanged at will without losing their status.

The upgrade vendors are located in major cities and the capital of each zone, and in in dungeons. Upgrades for trinkets are bought with tokens, gold or fragments of a rare trinket.

Upgrading a trinket is a cost-effective alternative to purchasing a new one. A player can upgrade a trinket for as little as 12 tokens. The new trinket has the same base level as the old trinket but will also have an additional 1% bonus upgrade.

Trinkets can be upgraded once the old ones are no longer useful, allowing a player to increase their power and worth over time. They can also be traded between players and are an attractive alternative to gold.

In general players should make upgrades to their most important items first. This means that the best-in slot items for each class are first upgraded then their secondary gear, and then other pieces of equipment that won't be replacing anytime soon (such as a ring or an cloak). Players should also consider their class's preferred stats when deciding the items to upgrade. If Haste and Crit are two of the most important stats to tank players and they want to upgrade their helm, chest and shoulders.

When they are no longer useful trinkets can be upgraded to a higher level. The new trinket comes with an additional bonus of 1. A re-upgrade, however, will destroy the trinket unless it is salvaged using a Black Lion Salvage Kit, or a salvage tool. This makes upgrading trinkets more expensive than other upgrades, however it is still less expensive than buying the new one.
