20 Resources That Will Make You Better At Item Upgrading

World of Warcraft – Item Upgrading The item upgrade lets players boost the gear rating of an item by up 700 points and also give it a bonus. Items can be upgraded if they are in your inventory and you decide to take them to the kiln. Certain items are worth upgrading due to their distinctive stats. (For instance an excellently broken point armor that is rolled can be used in melee PvP). Other items like weapons don't really change after an upgrade, and aren't worth the cost. Weapons Upgrades to weapons can boost their numerical stats, including attack damage, crit chance, and PvE/PvP damage. Weapons have a flat-rate bonus that increases damage per second. In addition some weapons come with a set bonus which is activated when three or more of the same weapon is present on a unit. This bonus could exceed the damage a weapon upgrade alone can do. The cost of upgrading a weapon depends on its rarity and current level. For instance, an upgrade to a +2 weapon will require two regular Smithing Stones while a+3 requires four. The number of stones required to upgrade a weapon will continue to increase until it is required to use a higher tier of Smithing Stones, at which point it will reset to one. The upgrade of weapons can also change their base stats. This is generally a positive factor, but it could also have negative effects. In the case of items that are only used in a certain build (Whistant's shield for FB Sorcs, for example) upgrading them can render them unusable unless you have an extremely lucky roll. The ability to upgrade armor items to improve their effectiveness. This can boost the base defense of a chest or helm, while belts and gloves can boost their strength and agility. Armor has a rerolling feature for its Enhanced Defense percent. This means that it may roll down to a lower value. The upgrade template for a weapon shows the new stats it will gain upon upgrading, along with their respective values. This means that a change from a sword that has 8 damage to an 11 attack-damage sword will result in the weapon gaining 33% attack damage. The 3% doesn't mean that the weapon will be hit 3 times less, as it is an absolute number. item upgrading can be rerolled by pressing the green button, which is accompanied by circular arrows within the menu for items. This will reroll the item and change its stats, but it won't reset the weapon's level or connect to the status of your account. Armor Adding a few upgrades to your armor could make a huge differences in your ability to survive. Certain sets offer massive boosts to poison, curse, fire and magic resistance, which makes it easier to navigate through tough terrain. In general, the more defense you can offer your character, the more health you can gain from each point. Therefore, it's a good idea to upgrade your armor. To upgrade your armor, go to one of the Great Fairy Fountains in the game. There are four Great Fairy Fountains within the game, and to unlock each one you have to complete a side quest that involves the Stable Trotters. After you've completed the main side quest and completed the fountain in question and then you can contact any Great Fairy to open up the armor upgrade menu. Each piece of armor can be upgraded up to three levels, and the amount of materials and Rupees required to complete each will vary. You'll need anywhere from three Red Chuchu jelly and 10 Rupees to upgrade the first armor piece, and anywhere between five Rubies or 10 Fire-Breath Horns to upgrade each subsequent one. The Champion Leathers, for instance can be upgraded to a +5 defense rating, which will allow you to remain competitive in frigid conditions with a large group of foes. The Snowquill Headdress, on the other side, can be upgraded to +20 defense to ensure you're able to survive a battle with your comrades. It's important to note that armor cannot be upgraded in the same way as weapons, so you'll want to focus on upgrading it to gain physical power if you're Warrior or Spell Power if you're Mage. It's also worthwhile to save your armor upgrades for armor you'll still be wearing at the end of the game, like the Ring of Lightning and Spectral Shield or the helmet you use for the final boss fight as well as the Monter Parts merchant's mask. You can also unlock some benefits to your armor by giving the jeweler in Gerudo Town 10 Twinkling Titanite. You'll generally want to save these upgrades for the weapon you'll be using to beat the game. For example the Longsword or Battleaxe. But it's useful to have some upgrades for the chest armor and helmets so that you can escape some monsters. Potions Potions are liquids that when consumed by a player, provide the player with a temporary effect. There are five types of potions, each with a specific set of effects and durations. Certain potions can be upgraded, enhancing the effectiveness of their effects. Alternatively the effects of some potions can be enhanced by adding glowstone dust or redstone to the potions. Potion upgrades cost a specific amount of XP. These can be earned by making them on a table or in an chest of the Alchemist. However, the cost of upgrading will vary based on the type of potion you want to upgrade, as well as on the item's Mark Level as well as its rarity. To upgrade a potion, click right 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 wish to upgrade, and the amount of experience they'll give you when upgraded. You can upgrade potions in batches of up to five at once, and their XP will be added to the total XP you have. Once a poton is upgraded and stored, it will not degrade unless you take it out again or break the bottle in the container it is stored. Clicking on the potion in your inventory will allow you to rename it. Version 1.7.2 introduced a few modifications to the way potions are used. Splash potions, for example, now have a duration zero, not the 22.5 seconds displayed on the hover display of the item. The table for potion can now be crafted with four Wood Planks and two Glass. This allows it to be used by players in Survival and Bedrock. Bedrock Edition potions are not compatible with cauldrons like Java Edition. The same applies to using a potion within an empty cauldron. This will deplete the liquid, and then refill the bottle. Lastly, there are now lingering potions that are brewed with splash and dragon breath potions. Redstone can be added to potions that are lingering to increase their effect. The table of potion ingredients is now laid out more in line with the Java Edition, and new potions were added such as the potion of leaping and the decomposition potion, and turtle master potions. Trinkets A trinket is a small and inexpensive ornament or piece of jewelry. It may be a reference to a piece of art or a decoration that serves a purpose, but is not particularly important such as a thimble. In some cultures a trinket is a way to express friendship or affection between family members. Trinkets can be upgraded by players as well as weapons and armor, as well as potions. Upgrades can be purchased by paying the appropriate currency to an upgrade vendor. Trinkets unlike other items that can be upgraded can be exchanged at any time without losing statistics. Upgrade vendors are located at the capitals of each zone, and in some instances in dungeons. Upgrades for trinkets are available using tokens, gold or fragments of rare trinkets. The upgrade of a trinket can be an affordable alternative to buying new ones. It is possible to upgrade a player for less than 12 tokens. The new trinket will have the same base ilvl as old one, and will have an additional 1% upgrade bonus. Trinkets can be re-upgraded once the old ones are not needed, allowing a player to increase their power and value over time. They can be traded among players which makes them a good alternative to gold. Players should upgrade their most essential items first. This means that the top-in slot items for each class are first upgraded then their secondary gear, and then other pieces of equipment they will not replace anytime soon (such as a ring or an cloak). Players should also consider their class's preferred stats when selecting which items to upgrade. For instance, if Haste and Crit are the two most important stats for tankers it is recommended that they upgrade their helm, chest shoulders, belt, and chest. After they've become unusable trinkets can be upgraded to a greater level. The new trinket has an additional 1% bonus. A re-upgrade, however, can cause damage to the trinket unless it can be saved using the help of a Black Lion Salvage Kit, or a salvage tool. This means upgrading trinkets is more expensive than other upgrades, however it is still cheaper than buying a new one.
