How to Upgrade Items in Pokemon GO
Upgrade is among the most sought-after items of Pokemon GO. It lets trainers evolve Porygon into Porygon2 and gives them the chance to advance in their Pokedex.
This item is rare however it can be obtained by spinning a Photo Disc at a Pokestop or as a prize at special occasions. What can this item do?
Components
Upgrade components are things that can be slotted into trinkets, weapons or gathering tools in order to give an added bonus or effect while the item is being used. They are an essential component of crafting and can be found through salvaging or purchased from vendors. They can also be found in the form of drops in the game, dropped by enemies or gathered from spheres of items. They can be used to upgrade armor or weapons with an upgrade slot.
Using upgrade components to maximize the experience gained from upgrading weapons and gear is essential to reach the highest level of progress in the game. The multiplier of experience of an upgraded item is increased by incorporating organic components, while mechanical components reduce it. The best combination is a high experience-multiplier organic component followed by a low-experience-multiplier mechanical component. This will maximize the experience you acquire and make it easier to reach the next level.
It's crucial to understand how the upgrade system functions to make the most of your upgrades. The system works by keeping the experience total in a continuous manner for the item you're upgrading. Each component has a positive or negative experience multiplier, and when the total reaches certain thresholds then it's reset to zero.
Additionally the amount of experience gained from every upgrade component is affected by the hidden rank of the item that is upgraded and its experience multiplier. The items with higher ranks will be more difficult to upgrade whereas the lower-ranked ones are easier to obtain.
If a new version of the hardware is installed, it's crucial to remove all existing connections and fasteners holding the old component in place. Store them in a parts tray to facilitate identification and storage. Connect all wires and cables and connect the power source. Then check the computer by switching it on. If everything is connected properly the computer should start normally. This is an essential step to ensure the new hardware will work seamlessly with your existing system.
Glyphs
Glyphs can be an excellent tool to enhance your equipment, but you must know how to use it. Each glyph can be used to improve an existing substatus, and the higher the rank of a glyph, the more powerful it becomes. Make sure you choose wisely, since you can only upgrade glyphs once. Glyphs are only available only once, and they'll disappear after you've used them on an item or artifact.
The most effective glyphs are those which increase your chances to roll an affix that is of the desired type or tier. They are typically found on the most expensive armor, weapons and other accessories. They can also be found on the Paragon Board. They are worth the effort, but it can be difficult to find.
You can find Glyphs in the Black Lion Chests or purchase them from the Trading Post. Certain glyphs are only used once, whereas others remain in their original position. They are ideal for items that must be re-rolled frequently. The Glyph of Hope allows you to increase your chances of obtaining an affix you want by creating a magical effect on an item.
Certain glyphs can also be used to modify existing affixes. This is typically seen on boots, gloves and belts, which are can accommodate four different affixes. The Glyph of Insight, for instance, converts a prefix into an experimental affix. This is a fantastic tool to have if are looking to maximize your damage output or want to make sure that you'll receive a top-quality affix for a specific slot.
Once you've reached level 50, the nature of the game shifts dramatically. You'll no longer be able to depend on the campaign. Instead, you'll have to navigate the Paragon Board, Nightmare Dungeons and new grinds in order to optimize your build.
The best glyphs are the ones that are compatible with your character's class, such as the Exploit Glyph, which increases damage to vulnerable enemies. Other good glyphs include the Control Glyph, which boosts the damage dealt to enemies who are frozen, stunned or slowed. Each glyph has its own radius, that increases as it's upgraded. This makes glyphs the best way to improve your gear in the late game.
Reroll tokens
A reroll token is an upgrade item that lets players alter one of the attributes of an item. This can be done through the item window by selecting an item and then pressing the green button, which is accompanied by circling arrows. The cost of rerolling is contingent on the rarity of the item upgrades.
Reroll tokens are found in the Mystery Box or as rare drops from skulled monsters. They can be purchased from the Trader. They can also be obtained through Event Items or by obtaining them from other players. They can be used to roll weapons, rings, and armors in increments of two. Each token that is rerollable gives players the chance to roll for a new attribute which can be either higher or lower than the previous one.
The token for rerolling is not just used to upgrade the reroll however, it can also be recycled to recycle items. Recycling an item gives players a certain number of points, which will be added to the level gauge for the item upgrades, based on its popularity. This is a good way to dispose of old, useless equipment that hasn't been upgraded.
The rerolling token may be used to offer the player a new weapon characteristic. The player can choose to accept or deny these traits. The player is able to provide a total of six items at once and the variety of choices increases as the item's level and rarity increases. This option is accessible through the Upgrade tab on the forge.
A reroll token can also be used to reroll the set bonus of an item. It can be redeemed if three or more items from the same set are fitted to an item upgrader mod [a cool way to improve]. The set bonus only applies to units that are part of the same class and cannot be applied to units belonging to different classes.
Other upgrade items, such recipes, can also be Rerolled. These aren't offered by the shop or reroll, but instead transferred to the non-droppable Pool when players select a Food Card that requires new ingredients or Equipment. Reroll tokens can be used to reroll these extra bonuses, however the base stats (including all upgrades) and level remain the same.
Leveling
In the game, you can upgrade your equipment with upgrade items. These items can be made by gathering the required ingredients from NPCs that can upgrade items located in major cities. When an item is upgraded, it will be given an additional bonus to its base stats. Certain affixes may also be changed. This can result to an increase of a significant amount in an item's value.
When an item is upgraded it will display a blue icon in the upper-left corner. The item upgrader kit will also display a number below its maximum level. A greater number of upgrades will boost the item's max level. The player can upgrade the item in as many instances as they like. This allows the player to reach gear breakpoints which increase the chances of rerolling certain affixes.
The upgrade feature for items allows players to upgrade the quality and level of their helmets, weapons and armor. This process costs items which are then exchanged by the item upgrader NPC for currency. The upgrader will show a preview of an item's new status and accept either Happy Tickets or Happy Stars to complete the upgrade. The item used to purchase materials will be destroyed. However, the upgraded item will be able to keep Item EXP to upgrade it further.
While there is no guaranteed method of obtaining an upgrade however, it has a very low chance of falling when spinning Pokestops and Gyms. Players can use an Upgrade to evolve the Porygon into the form of a Porygon2, who will consume the item.

It can be used to help Pokemon species change, and is triggered when traded while holding the Link Cable or Porygon. It is a rare item with an 1% drop rate per spin at Pokestops and Gyms. You can also obtain it by taking part in the Upgrade Station Event.
