Path of Exile Item Upgrading

In Path of Exile, item upgrading is one of the most effective ways to upgrade item your gear without relying on large-ticket drops or trade. This article will help you understand how to upgrade your gear.

Upgrades to equipment provide a bonus to the item upgrader mod's base stats. This bonus is based on the upgrade component level and rarity.

Components

Upgrade components are the things that can make your weapons and armor more effective. You can locate them by destroying enemies, buying them from karma vendors, or finding them in item-spheres. You can also get them from equipment that has the components or through high-end salvage kits like Black Lion Salvage Kit and Ascended Salvage Tool. Contrary to other products upgrades aren't destroyed when removed from an item.

The main purpose of upgrade components is to allow an item to be upgraded, however, they also serve other purposes. They can be stacked in order to increase the level of experience gained from upgrading existing equipment or weapons. They can also be forged to offer additional benefits. A glyph that is crafted can boost the chances of upgrading its target, while boost upgrades increase the defense or attack capabilities of weapons.

Selecting an upgrade template in the GUI will allow you to bind it to an item. This will show a list of upgrade components that the item upgrader kit (https://www.nlvbang.com/home.php?Mod=space&uid=402486) can be upgraded to. Alternatively, you can make use of the workbench to choose an upgrade template. In either case, an item will be upgraded when enough upgrade components have been gathered.

Each component is assigned an experience multiplier. This determines how much experience an item gains when upgraded using the component. For instance, organic components offer a higher experience multiplier than mechanical ones. It is recommended to upgrade the organic components first, until you reach the next level in the weapon or equipment then switch to mechanical upgrades.

Each item has a maximum upgrade number that is available for. The number of upgrades available is determined by the upgradeable rank and the type of upgrade for the upgradeable item. The highest upgrade possible is a weapon with 10th level. However, the most popular upgrades for weapons are an tier 6 weapon as well as a tier 5 armor upgrade.

Sets

A set is a collection of items which share the benefit of. Each item can be upgraded at least once. The upgrade increases the guaranteed bonuses. When you first upgrade an item or set piece will give it an increase of +1 to its primary stat. After subsequent upgrades, the primary stats will be increased even more (for instance the +1 bonus for 12+/13+/14+) and every time an item is upgraded one of its additional stats increases randomly.

Upgrades can also increase the damage base of a weapon. This can be crucial for certain builds. Weapons can't be upgraded for greater maximum defence rolls than their base. It is a good option to increase the value of some set and unique items, however it's important to remember that they might not be superior to a high-level runeword in any build.

If you are upgrading an item with an added bonus, the item can be rerolled once and the guarantee will reset back to zero. The same power die is used to reroll an item, just as it would be to upgrade it. However, the new item has different bonuses. Upgrades can be completed at the NPC [ArmorBoboko. Boboko in the Central Flarine. To upgrade an item, you'll require a power dice of each kind (Dice 4 or 6 drop from monsters 21+ and Giants; Dice 7 drops from bosses) and the right amount of Minerals and Erons. They can be purchased by using Gold at the crafting table, or in the Ultra Collection. The NPCs will also offer special rewards for each stage of the upgrade process. This reward can be rerolled one time using the same materials as original item.

Rerolling

A player can roll any item they have acquired in the game if they have enough reroll tokens to do so. When an upgraded item gets to be rerolled, it will be exchanged for an equivalent version that is level 1 of the same item in another set. Reroll tokens can be purchased at the store for a small amount of in-game currency. They are non-refundable. The new item will come with the same bonuses like the first, however the statistics will also be different.

Players can change the identification of equipment in addition to rolling it again by interacting with a NPC upgrader. This will change the identification from an armor to a weapon or vice versa, while keeping its basic stats and required attributes. The change will be permanent and affect all characters that own the gear.

Players can also increase the item level of any equipped equipment by acquiring upgrade items and conversing with the NPC who upgrades the item. This will cost a certain number of crests and Valorstones according to the upgrade track and item kind. In the case of weapons, each step will add 5% to its damage.

An upgrade will make it more powerful however, it can also lower its quality. It is therefore important to find a balance between these two. Some items are not worth upgrading, whereas others require upgrades to reach their full potential. A player might want to upgrade the breakpoint armor by adding an interesting modification ( percent block chance, or FHR) in order to explore what else it can become.

Rerolling is a common practice in Genshin Impact and other gacha-based games. People do it in order to get an item or character that they wouldn't otherwise have. These items can be costly and time-consuming to acquire and the RNG doesn't always play nice. The only options are to spend real cash or grind for a long time. Rerolling is a popular feature in Genshin Impact.

Leveling

When upgrading an item, you can level up the weapon or armor. However, this feature does absolutely nothing in the current game. I believe this feature was designed to add some value to rare and expensive items. However, since the majority of equipment is replaced quickly and can only be leveled up one level, you'll generally replace it before it gets too old. It's also not worth upgrading items with gem sockets because the power of the stone will outweigh any increase in the ilvl.

You will be presented with a small box when you click the upgrade option for an item. It will show the template for the item level upgrade, its crest, and the cost of Valorstone to increase the item's level. The costs will vary between weapons and armor, with the former usually costing more than the latter. The upgrade template outlines the stats to be added to an upgraded item and also the current ilvl.

The Crest and Valorstone costs are calculated by analyzing the item's current ilvl and the upgrade template. In addition, the ilvl of the new upgraded item will be decreased by the template's lvl reduction percentage. For example an upgrade of 8% will decrease the ilvl of a weapon by 8 to 88%.

The item will receive upgrades to other stats like critical strike damage, PvE damages, and block, parry and dodge rating, in addition to the base level. The increases are also based on the upgrade template.

In the upgrade template you can see the amount of damage or defense the item will receive after it is leveled up. This is shown below the cost as well as the upgrade percentages. All weapons and armor, except practice equipment, get these stats once they've been leveled up. The value of these stats will be dictated by the market, with a perfectly rolled perfect version of a piece of armor or weapon is able to command more trade value than non-upp'd versions. Similar is the case for other pieces of armor like tiaras or circlets.
