Path of Exile Item Upgrading
The best method to improve your gear in Path of Exile is through item upgrades. This lets you enhance your gear without having to depend on costly drops or trades. This article will show you how to upgrade your gear.
Upgrading equipment grants an increase to the item's base stats. The amount of bonus varies based on the rarity and level of the upgrade component.
Components
Upgrade components are the items that can make your weapons and armor better. They can be obtained by destroying enemies, finding them in spheres of items or buying them from karma dealers. They can also be rescued from equipment that contains them, or through a high-tier salvage kit like the Black Lion Salvage Kit or Ascended Salvage Tool. In contrast to other items, upgrade components are not destroyed when they are removed from an item.
The main purpose of upgrade components is to enable an item to be upgraded, but they also serve other functions. They can be used to increase the quality of an item that can be upgraded or they can be used to enhance the experience gained when upgrading an existing weapon or piece of equipment. They can also be forged to offer additional benefits. For example, a designed glyph will increase the upgrade chance of its target, and a boost upgrade will boost the defense or attack attribute of a weapon or armor.
Selecting an upgrade template in the GUI will allow you to bind it to an item. This will show an upgrade component list that the item can be upgraded to. You can also use the workbench for selecting an upgrade template. In either case, the item will be upgraded when enough upgrade components have been gathered.
Each component has its own experience multiplier. This determines the amount of experience an item will gain when upgraded with that component. Organic components, like, have an increased multiplier of experience than mechanical components. You should upgrade organic components first until you reach the next level in the weapon or equipment, then switch to mechanical upgrades.
In addition to the multiplier of experience every item also has the maximum number of upgrades that it can receive. The number of upgradeable items is determined by their upgradeable rank and the type of upgrade they are able to receive. The highest upgrade possible is a weapon with the tier 10. However, the most popular upgrade for weapons is the tier 6 weapon and an armor upgrade of tier 5.
Sets
A set is a collection of objects which all have the same bonus. Each item can be upgraded at least once. The upgrade boosts the amount of bonuses you can expect to receive. The first time you upgrade an item or set piece is that it will be given a +1 increase to its primary stat. After subsequent upgrades the stats of the primary one will be increased a bit more (for example, +1 up to 12+/13+/14+) Each time you upgrade the item level upgrade with an 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 a higher maximum defense roll than their regular base. Upgrading can be a good option to increase the value of certain sets and unique items, but it is important to keep in mind that they may not be superior to a high-level runeword in any build.
If the item you're upgrading comes with a guaranteed bonus that is guaranteed, it can be rerolled a few times and its guarantee will reset to 0. The same power dies are used to roll an item, just as it would be to increase its level. However, the new item has different bonuses. Upgrading can be done at the NPC [ArmorBoboko. Boboko in Central Flarine. To upgrade an item, you will require a power die of each type (Dice 4 or 6 drop from monsters 21+ and Giants; dice 7 drops from bosses) and the appropriate amount of Minerals and Erons. These are available at the crafting table or the Ultra Collector, and can be purchased using Gold. The NPCs will also offer special rewards for each level of the upgrade process. This reward can be rerolled a second time, and the reroll will use the same materials as the original item.
Rerolling
A player can roll any item upgrade they have acquired in the game provided they have enough reroll tokens. When an item is rerolled it will be replaced with an equivalent level 1 version from another set. Reroll tokens are sold in the store for a small sum of in-game currency. They are not refundable. The upgraded item will still come with the extra bonuses of the first however its stats will differ too.
In addition to rerolling objects, players can also alter the identification of any equipment by engaging with an upgrader NPC. This will change the identity from a weapon to armor or vice versa, while maintaining its base stats and the attributes it requires. The change is permanent and will affect all characters that are wearing the gear.
Players can also increase the level of their item on any equipped equipment by obtaining upgrade components and interacting with the item's upgrader NPC. It will cost a specific amount of crests as well as Valorstones depending on the upgrade track and type. For weapons, each upgrade will add an additional 5percent to the damage.
Upgrading an item will make it more powerful however it can also lower its quality. It is therefore essential to strike a balance between the two. Certain items aren't worth upgrading, while other items need to be upgraded to maximize their potential. For instance, a player might want to upgrade a piece of breakpoint armor with an interesting modifier ( percent chance of blocking or FHR) to explore the possibilities of what it can become.
The primary reason people play rerolls in Genshin Impact, or in any gacha-based game, is that they're trying to acquire a certain weapon or character that they wouldn't otherwise be able to acquire. Getting these items can be costly and time-consuming, and the RNG gods do not always want to play. The only options left are to spend real cash or grind for a long time. Rerolling is a popular feature in Genshin Impact.
Leveling
You can choose whether to upgrade the weapon or armor when you upgrade an item. This feature isn't available in the current version of the game. I believe that this feature was designed to give value to expensive and rare items. However, since the majority of equipment is replaced quickly and can only be upgraded one level, you will generally replace it before it becomes too old. It's also not worth it to upgrade items that have gem sockets as the power of the gem will be greater than the increase in ilvl with the upgrade.
When you click the upgrade button on an item, you'll be presented with a small window displaying the upgrade template of the item as well as the cost of crest and Valorstone to increase the level of the item. The cost of upgrades will vary based on weapons and armor as well, with the former typically costing more than the latter. The upgrade template outlines the stats to be added to an upgraded item and also the current base ilvl.
The crest and Valorstone costs are calculated by analyzing the item's current ilvl as well as the upgrade template. In addition, the ilvl of the new upgraded item will be reduced by the template's lvl reduction percentage. For example, an upgrade of 8% will reduce the weapon's ilvl by 8 to 8percent.
The item will receive upgrades to other stats, like critical strike damage, PvE damage and block, parry, and dodge rating, in addition to the base level. These upgrades are also based on the upgrade template.
The amount of defense and damage the item will receive when it is leveled can be shown below the cost and upgrade decrease percentages in the upgrade template window. All weapons and armor, except practice equipment, get these stats when they level up. The value of these additional stats will be dictated by the market, with a perfectly rolled perfect version of a weapon or piece of armor can command significantly more in trade value than unupp'd versions. The same applies to other pieces of armor like circlets and Tiaras.
