Cyberpunk 2077 Item Upgrading Guide
item upgrading (news) is a key component to maximizing the potential of your gear. It allows you to add extra bonus stats in addition to the value of your base item.
Each upgrade template comes with a set options which can be changed via the GUI. These options include the upgrade reference and the chance to upgrade items.
Upgrade components
As part of the 2.0 update the upgrade system for weapons and armor in Cyberpunk was redesigned. Upgrade components are available throughout Night City, and the item you wish to upgrade must have an upgrade slot available. The game will show an overview of the item's expected stats after upgrading. It will also display the component or material required. If you do not have the required component or resource to upgrade an item then the button will say "Blocked."
The items that can be upgraded include armor and weapons and trinkets and gathering tools. Upgrade slots can be filled on each item, granting bonus effects or attributes when the equipment is utilized. These upgrades can be obtained through crafting, purchased from a seller, or taken as rewards.
There are two kinds of upgrade components: universal upgrades and gems. Universal upgrades which are similar to gemstones can be placed in any kind of equipment and offer a smaller bonus than other upgrade item components. The process of obtaining them is quite simple and they can be dropped by enemies, or looted throughout the world. Gems, on the other hand, can be obtained by disassembling objects or completing certain tasks.
Upgrades can be replaced with new upgrades in a weapon's upgrade slot, but doing so will destroy the previous upgrade. Other upgrades, excluding for glyphs that can be inserted in gathering tools, cannot be removed from an item after they are inserted. Infusions can be inserted into legendary and advanced equipment. Enrichments can only be retrieved using a high-quality salvaging kit or an upgrade extractor.
Recycled items
In the two recent world wars, the scarcity of natural resources drove the world to embrace recycling. Recycling aluminum, plastic and paper is commonplace. They get a new lease on life. Recycling actually saves energy and keeps carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere. It's also a great method to avoid landfills and conserve natural resources. It is important to know which items can be recycled.
Many people make the mistake of putting the wrong things in the recycling bin. These waste products not only pollute the stream, but they could also harm recycling equipment. To avoid this, examine the label and adhere to the guidelines for your recycling program. For instance, cardboard should not be mixed with steel or tin cans, and tissue must be put in the trash. Plastic bags can get caught in recycling machines and should be taken back to the grocery store to be reused. Food containers and berry containers are also items that can be thrown away. The only exception to this rule is glass, which can be used as a building material.
It's important to check for the label "Made from recycled content" when looking for new products. This indicates that the product is made from recycled materials from items that have already fulfilled their purpose. This makes them more environmentally sustainable than new items made from raw materials. They are also less expensive than the original ones.
Whether it's your old phone, tablet or computer, you can reuse these items by bringing them to an recycling center. They'll reuse the materials to create new electronic devices and other useful products. You could even earn money from some of these companies by returning the old ones.
If you're looking to help your colleagues to recycle, you should consider coordinating the colors of the bins and signage in your office. This will eliminate confusion and encourage participation. Also, ensure that you have a designated space for all recyclables in your office, such as a centralized bin or a box in the breakroom.
Reroll tokens
Reroll tokens offer you a second chance of rolling the dice to gain better stats or cooler powers. These tokens are found in the mistery box, as rare drops from skulled creatures or bosses. Each token removes an attribute point from damage and rolls it into an attribute that is different. You can also reroll extras on items, such as regeneration and speed.
The bonuses on an item increase with each level, but the amount they boost varies. The value of an extra is calculated as a percentage of the total statistics of the item and rerolling the token will alter this value. The item's recycling value also increases as it gets upgraded. The value of the item's main stats increases by 3 every time it is upgraded, but the value of the additional stats will be different.
To reroll an item, you can click the dice icon next to the item in your inventory. You can also press the button on a lobby of a player, and then select "Reroll". After rolling the item, it will disappear from your collection.
Rerolls can be purchased as well as other in-game items from Sagbe, an in-game Token Shop trader. The redemption of active codes will allow you to earn free rerolls in Fire Force Online. These codes can be redeemed for a variety of items, including Reroll Tokens or Clan Reroll Tokens.
These rerolls can be useful at the beginning of the game, when you are building up your inventory. However, they are not the best way to increase your character's stats. Instead, you should focus on getting more skill points. You can also earn bonus points by completing the event levels.
You can also change your character's race using an reroll token for races, which can be purchased through the Zen Market. This token lets you change your race once, and it is redeemable through specific pack purchases or the Token Shop. It can also be obtained as a reward when you complete Meg's cases during the Port Sarim invasion event.
Leveling
The process of leveling an item during an upgrade process increases its power level and stats. However, it increases the cost of upgrades and requires the use of certain materials to complete the process. The kind of material needed is dependent on the item. Weapons, for example, utilize a combination of Destruction Stones (DS) and Guardian Stones. Armor is made up of Harmony Leapstones, Shards and other materials. The addition of additional elements can boost the chances of success, but it is not a sure thing.
The process of leveling utilizes an algorithm to determine the amount of damage magical attack, defense and damage an upgraded item receives at the next upgrade. The formulas differ based on weapon type and rarity. There is also a maximum level per type of gear.
After the item reaches its maximum level at which point the NPC will show an upgrade option that lets the player infuse the item with experience and upgrade it to the next level. To maximize the effectiveness of this process, players should make sure their gear is fully leveled before attempting an upgrade. This way, they can avoid wasting time and resources that could have been better spent on other upgrades.
The NPC will display two lines while the upgrade is underway. The first line indicates how many Tech Points will be gained by upgrading the item, while the second displays an image of the item's upgraded appearance. The preview may not be accurate if the item has modifications. However, it could give you an idea of what the item will look like.
The NPC will display the price to upgrade the item. This will include the cost of Technology Points, if applicable. If you have an Accelerator, it will include the cost. Accelerators are available for purchase via the Exchange and increase the number of Tech Points gained through an upgrade by 50 percent. However, this bonus does not apply to the item's quality Chance which is resets once the item reaches its target level.
The Upgrade NPC also provides the option of transferring gear. This will allow players to save the experience and progress in upgrading an item of gear and transfer it to a new item level upgrade in the same slot. This is beneficial for players who wish to change their gear, but do not have enough cash to purchase a brand new set.
