World of Warcraft Item Upgrades
Upgrades to items are an essential aspect of preparing your character. Upgrades increase the damage of your item upgrade and the ability to enchant.
They also offer bonuses and improvements. The Blacksmith can sell them to you.
Players can recycle any best item upgrade by pressing the upgrade button on it. Each item recycled adds a level to the gauge for upgrading.
Weapons
When a weapon gets upgraded, it will gain a base damage bonus, as well as a scaling factor which affects other stats. The weapon could also gain a variety of upgrade components that offer additional effects or attributes as well as distinctive cosmetic effects. These upgrades can be added to weapons, armors, trinkets and gathering tools. They generally require that the equipment has an upgrade slot available and that it meets certain requirements. The upgrade component can be removed from a weapon, armor or trinket, but it will not be replaced. (Except for legendary equipment). Upgrade components can be recovered by using a Black Lion Salvage Kit or an Ascended Salvage Tool, or using a high-tier salvage tool on the item it self.
In addition to the basic upgrades, a weapon can be upgraded with a Calibration Attribute that improves certain stats, such as Weakspot Damage or Crit Rate. This can be done via the Gear Workbench interaction menu. Based on the tier of the weapon, this can be done up to four times.
When the weapon is at maximum upgrade, it can be reforged with a number of different upgrade types to improve specific stats or to add bonuses and effects. These upgrades can all be applied simultaneously, and their effects will differ based on how rare the weapon is.
Two Blacksmiths are able to perform these upgrades in the game: Blacksmith Iji on the Road to the Manor Site of Grace and Smithing Master Hewg at the Church of Elleh hub. Both upgrade materials are different: Smithing Stones to modify the type of damage that weapons deal and Somber Smithing Stones to modify the standard weapons.
In general, it is recommended to increase the damage of your weapon first, then armour defense, then the other secondary stats as required by your build. Particularly, it is common to see melee druids upgrading their weapon before they upgrade any other gear, as this helps maximise DPS. This is particularly true for enchantments that can increase a weapon's stats as well as damage.
Armor
Item upgrades allow players to boost the performance of certain armors, weapons, trinkets, and gathering tools. These upgrades can also give additional effects, for example, an increase in damage or an enhancement to the appearance of. item level upgrade upgrades can be obtained through crafting, buying from NPC vendors, through loot drops, or as rewards from quests.
The quality of armor can be upgraded by visiting the Armorer NPC, and spending the appropriate currency. In most cases an item of armor will be upgraded to the next level after an upgrade is applied. This can be done for most types of armor, though some items cannot be upgraded in any way (such as the armor that is used as a starter in Great Sky Island).
The majority of armor upgrades provide some improvement to the item's defense or strength. Certain upgrade components, however, could result in significant improvements in strength or defense. This is especially relevant when upgrading epic items.
Some upgrades provide specific abilities that can be activated while wearing armor. These abilities can be useful in combat, for instance granting a buff to attack speed or blocking. Certain upgrades provide passive effects that are useful, such as decreasing damage when wearing armor, or increasing the chance to dodge an attack.
Upgrades to armor can require several attempts, depending on the type. If a player wants to upgrade Steelclash armor into Dragonscale and the first attempt will result in a brand new Dragonscale armor with the defense base ranging from 59 to 67. The second attempt would result in a new Dragonscale armor with an initial defense of 67-77 and so on.
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild allows players to upgrade their armor sets up to level 4. To do so it is necessary to visit each of the four locations referred to as Great Fairy Fountains in the game. Each of these locations holds an incredibly powerful fairy who can upgrade items one piece of armor for the player.
Contrary to what many believe armor isn't useless in The Division 2. The truth is that some armors come with very substantial increases in poison, curse, fire or magical damage reduction, making them invaluable for certain builds. There are other ways to boost the stats of armor besides upgrading armor, such as using the engineer attribute to increase armor penetration or the challenger trait to decrease the weight of the entire armor.
Potion
By putting a potion in the stand for brewing, you will be able to unlock new effects. The upgrade unlocks a new tier of potion effect, and can be repeated to get more potency levels.
The potions also get the ability to select a custom color that can be set by the player via /give. The color affects the area-of-effect clouds as well as the arrows that are generated. In Bedrock Edition the custom potion color also affects the particle effects of the potions.
The water bottle, the mundane and thick potions, as well as difficult potions, now have a different brewing texture. Add potion of weakness and healing potion in the Creative inventory. In addition, there are lingering potions which can be made by using splash potions or Dragon breath. Also added is a thick potion which has the status effect Mining Fatigue. Bug Tracker is the place to report issues relating to this patch.
Trinket
A trinket could be an inexpensive, small ornament or piece of jewelry. It can be a necklace or ring. It could also be a small banner used to mark the lateen yard of a boat. It can also refer to a gold-plated trinket on the mast of a ship.
This macabre trinket is believed to be influencing the residents of this maze, making them more common. This trinket at the moment, makes all types of mimics more common and gives each floor a Y% chance that it will contain an ebony copy. Upgrades to this trinket will cost an amount of energy.
The magic of this enchanted scepter appears to affect the dungeon itself, making it more likely to generate grass and water. This trinket, at its current level, will cause X% of regular floors to be filled with water or grass. It will not alter glyphs, enchantments, cursed armor or weapons, or items that are produced to help solve the dangers in rooms.
While it looks like a normal newt's eye, this mysterious object appears to be affecting your vision in ways other than merely reducing your field of view. This trinket, at the moment level, boosts the health benefits of drinking healing potion and wells of life by X%, and gives you mind-sight on enemies within Y tile. This is not a stacking feature with the Heightened Senses.
Skull Cavern is where you will find Trinkets after you have completed the Mastery Cave. You can find them after defeating Monsters and in chests and crates. They cannot be found in the Mines or Volcano Dungeon.
Place the trinket in the Anvil whenever it is required to be upgraded. This will cause an unintended effect on the trinket, either prolonging its life or enhancing its effects. You can reforge the Trinket as often as you like, but it will always be able to produce an effect that is new.
You can also upgrade your Trinkets at the Alchemy Station by placing them into a Magical Catalyst. This will cost 6 energy, but will increase the trinkets power by a small amount.
