World of Warcraft Upgrades and Item Upgrading

Upgrades boost the value of certain numeric stats on weapons, armor and rings. They also boost extra bonuses like damage from PvE and crit chance.

If the template for upgrading a weapon ends in %, it will be able to gain 3% of its previous attack damage every time it is upgraded.

Item upgrading costs crests and the current level of the item. The cost increases as the item's level increases.

Components

Upgrade components are items that can be slotted into armor, weapons and trinkets to give a stat bonus or extra effect when they're used. They can be obtained by crafting, buying from vendors trading, or looting. Certain upgrades also come with special cosmetic effects.

Upgrade components can be inserted into equipment that has a slot for them; the item must be at a minimum upgraded to blue level for a component to be inserted. Upgrade components, unlike other mods, can only be applied only once. They cannot be replaced or applied several times. Infusions and enrichments are a kind of upgrade component used to upgrade non-amulet legendary or Ascended equipment, as well other items that are not ascended. Infusions and enrichments can be retrieved by salvaging gear that is ascended or completing an elite mission in the Prophecies, Factions and Nightfall campaigns.

A suffix or prefix can be added to an upgrade, thereby changing the name of the item it is used on (for example, 'Canthan Armor Insignia,' is changed to Canthan Armor Minor Vigor). Certain upgrades boost the Mark Rarity or Level of an item, which lets players create stronger versions with fewer Upgrade crystals than they would need to reach the same level with normal methods.

A boost upgrade is a way to alter the attack or defense attributes of a weapon or armor. These upgrades can be made from the Portative Forging Station once the player has completed the cutscene, and defeats the Crazed mechanic. They can be dropped by enemies while upgrading other gear or by purchasing them from the cash shop for 500 upgrade crystals.

Each upgrade increases the chance that a higher-tier version of the item upgrader kit will be available at the next reset. This gives players a reason to upgrade their equipment even when they're not sure what will be improved after the reset.

If a boost upgrade is successful or not, the process can be costly and there is a high possibility that the item will be obsolete or even break when it fails. A unsuccessful upgrade could ruin the Upgrade Crystals and Assist Powder, as well as the upgraded item. Cash shop items can be used to reduce or eliminate the chance of failure. Some upgrades also offer a bonus if reinserted.

Glyphs

Glyphs can be used to improve the Paragon Board by placing them in sockets that are specifically designed for. Glyphs boost the power of nodes within a radius, and include any existing affixes. Glyphs can be upgraded in a variety of ways. We recommend upgrading them as quickly as you can to level 15.

In the endgame you'll often discover that the Best item upgrade way to improve your equipment is to use Glyphs. These are the only upgrade component that can be upgraded up to level 15 and offer a significant boost to your power on the Paragon Board.

Most of the upgrades in the game can be replaced but Glyphs are the only upgrade component that can be removed and put back in place without any restrictions. Only legendary equipment can be salvaged and rebuilt using a Black Lion Salvage Kit.

The value of each Glyph is displayed when you choose it in your inventory. You can decide to replace it with a different Glyph of the same rank or higher rank, which will increase the value of the Glyph.

Glyphs can be found in the Black Lion Trading Post as part of the Gem Store bundle or purchase, with certain unlimited-use tools as well as during Faction Crypt Raids. Each Faction Crypt has the chance of dropping one of the many Glyphs, and there are also a few rare glyphs that can be found in the form of drops from any of the four Faction Crypts.

Once you have gotten the desired Glyphs you'll need them to be placed on your gear. Each Glyph unlocks a unique bonus that will boost a specific set of stat nodes in a radius surrounding the Glyph. Depending on the Glyph it could be +40 to one of your primary stats or +25 to two of your secondary stats.

Glyphs will increase the number of nodes connected to them, therefore it is recommended to place Glyphs in key spots on the Graph. This will maximize the impact. For example, a Druid should aim to place their Glyphs close to their primary damage nodes however, you may also want to consider placing them near critical damage nodes as well.

Leveling

The item upgrade system allows players to increase the stats of specific items by adding upgraded components. This is known as "upping". Each upgradeable item has a level that determines the final statistics. Upgraded items are able to be leveled up to a maximum of ilvl 385. Each item level requires a different number of components to be reached and the cost of upgrading increase as the item is leveled up.

Some upgrades require an ingredient to be activated. This ingredient can be obtained by finishing Upgrade Recipes. These recipes can be found in the upgrade tab of a crafting table, or purchased from some NPCs. Each completed Upgrade Recipe yields several Technology Points. These points can be used to level the item upgrader mod, and once enough are earned, the upgrade will be claimed and its additional bonuses will be added to the item.

When a player upgrades an item it is replaced by a new item of the same type. This means that the same armor piece will get a weapon or shield when upgraded. The new item will have a unique bonus. This could be a disadvantage in that the item could be more expensive even if you don't require it.

Item upgrades can sometimes be rerolled, provided that the player has enough reroll tokens to do this. The item will be replaced by the same item, but it has a level 1 basis and completely different bonuses. This is useful for some items, but it's not something that should be performed frequently, since it can use up a lot of resources.

Some upgrades can be rerolled multiple times, increasing their value and giving players the ability to alter their equipment. Dolphin's Gift is a good example, since it grants buffs when the player is repeatedly in or exits the water. This item can be upgraded many times, increasing the maximum roll each time by 10 increments. This item is highly useful in PvP. A properly rolled version can be worth 50 times the value of a unupgraded counterpart.

Requirements

The upgrader for items allows players to increase the level of their equipment (armor, weapons, and trinkets) beyond ilvl385 by handing over the appropriate currency to the NPC. Upgrading armor set pieces will also increase the defense base of that piece, while upgrading weapon items will increase the base damage and required strength and dexterity to match the requirements of the upgraded equipment.

All items are upgradeable up to five times, except for hero gear, which can be upgraded eight times. Every when you upgrade an item, it is given an opportunity to fail. The rate of failure increases as you exceed the maximum number of upgrades. Failures will cause the item to revert to its initial state, which will force the user to pay more for materials than they would have to had they stopped upgrading at the highest number of upgrades.

If an item upgrader mod is not upgraded the experience bar on its growth bar will be reset to zero. The item also loses any bonuses it gained, such as chances to be crit damage to attack, other effects (such as an increase in healing over time or reloading speed). However, the player may still continue to use the weapon or armor following the failure.

Whenever an item is upgraded, the upgrades are applied from the lowest to the highest. This means that when a weapon gains an increase in the chance of crit, the increase is applied prior to any increase in attack damage. A new attribute called Slots is now added to the item's definition and the value is computed every time an upgrade is applied.

The amount of resources required to upgrade an item is based on the rarity rating as well as the number of upgrade slots. The cost of upgrading non-premium items is equal to the base value of the upgrade--for example, a common equipment item might have 5 upgrades at a cost of 25600 Technology Points 4x Quality Improvement Chance. Hero quality items have lower costs per upgrade.

Premium items have different requirements for upgrading than standard gear--for instance, they may require fewer sowels, but they will require more minerals and erons. Whatever the case, players must visit the NPC [Armor] Boboko in Central Flarine with each piece of equipment they wish to upgrade. Each upgrade to equipment will require different amounts of upgrade ingredients in addition to the cost that are listed above.
