Path of Exile Item Upgrading

In Path of Exile, item upgrading is one of the Best item upgrader ways to improve your gear without relying on massive drops or trade. This article will teach you how to upp your gear effectively.

Upgrades to equipment provide an increase in the item's stats. The amount of bonus varies depending on the rarity and level of the upgrade component.

Components

Upgrade components can make your armour and weapons better. They can be found by destroying enemies, purchasing them from karma vendors, or finding them in items-spheres. They can also be salvaged from equipment that has them, or by utilizing a high-tier salvage kit like the Black Lion Salvage Kit or Ascended Salvage Tool. Contrary to other products, upgrade components are not destroyed when removed from an item.

The primary function of upgrade components is to allow an item to be upgraded however, they also serve other functions. They can be used to increase the level or experience gained by upgrading existing weapons or gear. They can also be made to provide extra bonuses. For instance, a specially designed glyph will increase the chances of upgrading its target, while a boost upgrade will boost the defense or attack quality of a weapon or armor.

By selecting an upgrade template from the GUI will let you bind it to an item. This will show the upgrade components to which the item can be updated. You can also use the workbench to selecting an upgrade template. In either scenario the item will be upgraded after enough upgrade components are collected.

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

Each item comes with an upgrade limit number that it is possible to receive. The number of upgrades available is determined by its upgradeable rank and the upgrade type of the upgradeable item. For instance, the highest possible weapon upgrade is a weapon with tier 10. However, the most common upgrades for weapons are the tier 6 weapon and an armor upgrade of tier 5.

Sets

A set is a collection of objects that all share the same bonus. Each item can be upgraded at least once. The upgrade will increase the guaranteed bonuses. When you first upgrade a set piece or weapon, it will receive an increase of +1 to its primary stat. On subsequent upgrades, the primary stats are boosted even further (for instance the +1 bonus for 12+/13+/14+) and every time an item is upgraded, one of its additional stats is increased randomly.

Upgrades can also increase a weapon's damage base. This may be important for certain types of builds. However, weapons can't be upgraded to have a higher defense level than their normal base. It's possible to increase the value of certain sets and unique items by upgrading them, however they're not always superior to a high-level Runeword.

If an item you're upgrading comes with a guaranteed bonus, it can be rerolled once, and then its guarantee will reset to 0. Rerolling costs the same amount of power dice as the process of leveling an item, but the new item will offer various bonuses. The NPC [ArmorBoboko Boboko can upgrade your armor 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. They can be purchased by using Gold at the crafting table, or in the Ultra Collection. The NPC will also offer an extra reward for each completed tier of the upgrade process. This reward can be rerolled one time, using the same materials as the original item.

Rerolling

If a player has enough rerolling tokens, they can reroll any item that they've acquired during the game. When an upgraded item gets rerolled, it will be exchanged for the version at a level 1 of the same item in another set. Reroll tokens are sold in the shop for a small amount of in-game currency. They are not refundable. The new upgraded item will still have the extra bonuses of the original one however, its stats will be different as well.

Players can change the identity of their equipment as well as rerolling it by interacting with a NPC upgrader. This will change its identification from a weapon to an armor or reverse it. Its base requirements and stats will remain the same. The change is permanent and will affect all characters who are wearing the gear.

Players can also boost the level of their Best item upgrade on any equipped device by obtaining upgrade components and communicating with the NPC who upgrades the item. This will cost a certain amount of crests and Valorstones dependent on the upgrade track and item kind. In the case of weapons, each upgrade will add 5% to its damage.

The upgrade of an item can make it more powerful however, it can also decrease its quality. It is therefore important to find a balance between these two. Certain items might not be worth upgrading at all, while others will need to be upgraded in order to reach their potential. For instance one player might wish to upgrade a piece of breakpoint armor that has an interesting modifier (% chance to block or FHR) to discover what it could be.

The main reason people play rerolls in Genshin Impact, or in any gacha-based game is that they're trying to get a specific character or weapon that they aren't able to obtain. These items can be expensive and time-consuming and the RNG gods don't always want to cooperate. The only options is to shell out real money or grind lots. Rerolling is very popular in Genshin Impact.

Leveling

When upgrading an item upgrader kit, you can choose to increase the level of the weapon or armor. However, this feature does absolutely nothing in the current game. I think it was meant to be a way to add value to rare items, but as equipment generally drops quickly and is only upgraded once you've reached a certain level, you'll usually replace the item before it gets old enough. It's not worth it to Upgrade Items (Securityholes.Science) with gem sockets as the power of the gem will be greater than the increased ilvl that comes with the upgrade.

You will see a small window when you click on the upgrade option for an item. It will display the template of the item, the Crest, as well as the cost for Valorstone to raise the item level. The cost of upgrades will vary based on armor and weapons, with the former usually costing more than the latter. The upgrade template lists the stats that will be added to an upgraded item as well as its current base ilvl.

The crest and Valorstone costs are calculated by analyzing the item's current ilvl and the upgrade template. The ilvl is also reduced by the upgrade templates reduction percentage of lvl. For example an upgrade of 8% will decrease the weapon's ilvl by 8 to 8%.

In addition to the increase in ilvl base it will also be upgraded in other stats such as critical strike damage, damage from PvE and dodge, block and parry rating. These upgrades are also based on the upgrade template.

The amount of damage and defense that the item is able to receive when it is leveled can be shown below the cost and upgrade decrease percentages in the upgrade template window. All armor and weapons apart from practice equipment get these stats once they've been leveled up. The value of these additional stats will be dictated by the market, with a perfectly rolled piece of armor or weapon is able to command more trade value than non-upp'd versions. This is also true for other pieces of armor such as tiaras and circlets.
