Path of Exile Item Upgrading<br /><br />In Path of Exile, item upgrading is among the most effective ways to upgrade your equipment without relying on massive drops or trade. This article will teach you how to upgrade your gear effectively.<br /><br /><a href="https://cases.gg/item-upgrader">Cases gg</a> to equipment provide an additional bonus to the item's base stats. The bonus increases with upgrade component level and rarity.<br /><br />Components<br /><br />Upgrade components are the items that improve your armor and weapons more effective. You can get them from destroying enemies, finding them in spheres of items or buying them from karma merchants. They can also be rescued from equipment that contains them, or by utilizing an advanced salvage kit such as the Black Lion Salvage Kit or Ascended Salvage Tool. Contrary to other products upgrades aren't destroyed when they are removed from an item.<br /><br />The main function of upgrade components is to enable an item to be upgraded however, they also serve other purposes. They can be used to boost the value of an upgradeable item or they can be used to enhance the amount of experience gained from upgrading an existing weapon or piece of equipment. They can be made for additional benefits. A glyph that has been crafted can increase the chances of upgrading its target, and a boost upgrade increases the defense or attack capabilities of the weapon.<br /><br />You can attach an upgrade template to an item by selecting it from the edition GUI. This will display the upgrade components to which the item can be upgraded. Alternately, you can make use of the workbench to choose an upgrade template. In either scenario, an item will be upgraded after enough upgrade components have been gathered.<br /><br /><br /><br />Each component has a distinct experience multiplier that affects how much more experience an item receives when it is upgraded by that component. Organic components, for instance, have a higher multiplier of experience than mechanical components. It is therefore best to upgrade with organic components until you reach the multiplier of experience for the next rank of weapon or gear, then switch to mechanical upgrades.<br /><br />Each item comes with an upgrade maximum number that is available for. The number of items that can be upgraded is determined by their upgradeable rank, and the kind of upgrade they can receive. For instance, the most expensive possible upgrade for a weapon is a weapon of tier 10. The most commonly used upgrade is a gun of tier 6 and a armor upgrade for tier 5.<br /><br />Sets<br /><br />A set is a group of items that share a bonus. Each item in the set can be upgraded at least one time, and each upgrade boosts the amount of bonuses that are guaranteed. The first time you upgrade a set piece or weapon will give it 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, one of its extra stats will be increased randomly.<br /><br />Upgrades can also boost the base damage of a weapon. This can be crucial for certain types of weapons. Weapons can't be upgraded for greater maximum defence rolls than their base. It's possible to increase the value of specific sets and unique items by upgrading them, however they're not always superior to a higher-level Runeword.<br /><br />If the item you're upgrading has a guarantee bonus it is able to be rerolled only once and the guarantee will reset to 0. The same power die is used to roll an item, just as it is used to level it up. However, the new item has different bonuses. The NPC [ArmorBoboko Boboko can upgrade your armor in Central Flarine. To upgrade an item, you'll require a power dice of each type (Dice 4 or 6 drop from monsters 21+ and Giants; Dice 7 drops from bosses) and the proper amount of Minerals and Erons. These can be bought with Gold at the crafting table, or in the Ultra Collection. The NPC will also offer a special reward for each tier of the upgrade process. This reward is rerollable once and the reroll will use the same materials as the first item.<br /><br />Rerolling<br /><br />A player is able to reroll any item acquired in the game provided they have enough reroll tokens. When an item is rerolled it will be replaced by the same level in another set. Reroll tokens are sold in the store for a small sum of in-game currency. They are non-refundable. The new item will come with the same bonuses like the first, however the stats will also differ.<br /><br />In addition to rerolling items, players can also change the identification of any equipment by interfacing with an upgrader NPC. The equipment's identification will change as a weapon to armor, or reverse it. The basic stats and requirements will remain the same. The change is permanent and will affect all characters that have the gear in question.<br /><br />Players can also increase the level of an item equipped equipment by obtaining upgrade components and interacting with the upgrader NPC of the item. The cost will differ based on the upgrade track, item type and the number of crests. For weapons, each step will add 5% to its damage.<br /><br />An upgrade can make it more powerful, but it will also decrease its quality. It is therefore important to find a balance between the two. Certain items might not be worth upgrading at all, while others will need to be upgraded in order to realize their potential. A player might want to upgrade their breakpoint armor using an interesting modifier ( percent block chance or FHR) in order to explore what else it can become.<br /><br />The primary reason people play rerolls in Genshin Impact, or in any gacha-based game is because they are trying to obtain a particular weapon or character that they can't otherwise obtain. These items are time-consuming and costly to acquire and the RNG does not always work in a positive way. The only alternative is to spend money or grind extensively. Rerolling is a very popular option in Genshin Impact.<br /><br />Leveling<br /><br />You can decide to upgrade the weapon or armor when you upgrade an item. However, this feature does absolutely nothing in the current game. I believe it was designed to to give some value to rare items, but as gear in general drops fairly quickly and is only upgraded one level up, you'll usually replace the item before it becomes too old. It is also not worth upgrading items with gem sockets since the power of the stone will outweigh any increment in the ilvl.<br /><br />You will be presented with a small box when you click on the upgrade option on an item. It will display the item's template, the crest, and the cost of Valorstone to increase the item's level. Weapons and armor will have different costs, with the former generally being more expensive. The upgrade template lists the stats that will be added to an upgraded item, as well as its current ilvl.<br /><br />The crest and Valorstone costs are calculated according to the current ilvl of the item and 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 88%.<br /><br />The item will be upgraded to other stats, like critical strike damage, PvE damage and block, parry, and dodge rating in addition to the base level. The increases are also based on the upgrade template.<br /><br />In the upgrade template, you can check the amount of damage or defense the item will be able to sustain when it is upgraded. This is shown below the cost and the upgrade percentages. Apart from the practice equipment, all other weapons and armor gain these same stats when leveled up. The market will determine the value of these stats. A weapon or armor that has perfect rolls can fetch a much higher price than an unupp'd version. Similar is the case for other pieces of armor like tiaras and circlets.<br /><br />
