Path of Exile Item Upgrading

The most effective way to upgrade your gear in Path of Exile is through upgrading your items. This allows you to upgrade your gear without having depend on costly drops or trades. This article will show you how to upgrade your items.

Upgrades to equipment provide an additional bonus to the item's base stats. The bonus is depending on the rarity and level of the upgrade component.

Components

Upgrade components are the parts that improve your armor and weapons more effective. They can be obtained by fighting off enemies, locating them in item spheres or buying them from karma dealers. You can also get them from equipment that has the components or through salvage kits of high-end quality, such as Black Lion Salvage Kit and Ascended Salvage Tool. Upgrade components cannot be destroyed when you remove them from an item.

Upgrade components are mostly used to upgrade an item, but they can also be used for other reasons. They can be stacked to increase the level or experience gained from upgrading existing equipment or weapons. They can also be made to offer additional benefits. For instance, a designed glyph will increase the chance of upgrading its target, and a boost upgrade will enhance the defense or attack quality of a weapon or armor.

You can bind an Upgrade Item template to an item by selecting it from the edition GUI. It will display an upgrade component list that the item can be upgraded to. You can also use the workbench to select an upgrade template. In either scenario, an item will be upgraded when enough upgrade components have been collected.

Each component is assigned an experience multiplier. This determines how much experience an item will gain when upgraded using that component. Organic components, for example, have more experience multipliers than mechanical components. It is recommended to upgrade organic components first until you reach the next rank in the weapon or equipment, and then switch to the mechanical upgrades.

Each item comes with a maximum upgrade number that it is possible to receive. The number of upgradeable items is determined by their upgradeable rank, and the type of upgrade they are able to receive. The most powerful upgrade is a weapon with the tier 10. The most commonly used upgrade is a gun with tier 6 and a armor upgrade of tier 5.

Sets

A set is a set of items which all have the same bonus. Each item in the set can be upgraded at least once, and the upgrade increases the amount of bonuses that are guaranteed. When you first upgrade an item, its initial stat will be +1. In subsequent upgrades the primary stats will be increased a bit further (for example, +1 up to 12+/13+/14+) Each time you upgrade the item, one of its extra stats is increased randomly.

The upgrade of a weapon can increase the damage base, which may be crucial for certain builds. Weapons aren't upgraded to give an increased maximum defence roll than their base. It is possible to increase value of certain set and unique items by upgrading them, however they're not always better than a Runeword with a high level.

If the item level upgrade you're upgrading has a guarantee bonus it is able to be rerolled a few times and the guarantee will be reset 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. The NPC [ArmorBoboko Boboko can upgrade your armor in Central Flarine. To upgrade an item, you will 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. They can be purchased with Gold at the crafting table or in the Ultra Collection. NPCs also offer special rewards for each completed stage of the upgrade process. This reward can be rerolled one time, using the same materials and components as the first item.

Rerolling

If a player has enough rerolling tokens, they can roll any item they've accumulated during the game. If an item is rerolled, it will be replaced with a level 1 version in another set. Reroll tokens are available in the shop for a small sum of in-game currency. They are not refundable. The upgraded item will still come with the extra benefits of the previous one however its stats will differ as well.

Players can change the identity of equipment in addition to rolling it again by interacting with an upgrader NPC. This will change the identification from an armored weapon to a weapon, or vice versa, while retaining its base stats and the attributes it requires. The change will be permanent and affect all characters who own the equipment.

The player can also upgrade their level of the item for any equipped equipment. This is accomplished by engaging with an upgrader NPC and obtaining upgrade components. The cost will vary depending on the upgrade track, item type and the number of crests. Each upgrade will add 5percent more damage to weapons.

Upgrades can increase the power of an item, however they also can decrease the quality of an item. Therefore, it is important to strike a balance between the two. Some items may not be worth upgrading however, others will need to be upgraded to reach their potential. For example one player might decide to upgrade a piece of breakpoint armor with an interesting modifier (% chance to block or FHR) to discover what it could be.

Rerolling is a popular practice in Genshin Impact and other gacha-based games. It is a method used by players to try to obtain a character or weapon that they wouldn't otherwise have. These items can be expensive and time-consuming, and the RNG gods do not always want to play ball. The only options left are to spend real cash or grind lots. Rerolling is a popular feature in Genshin Impact.

Leveling

You can select whether to upgrade the weapon or armor after upgrading an item. However, this feature does absolutely nothing in the current game. I believe it was designed to be a way to add value to rare items, but since equipment generally drops quickly and is only upgraded after a certain amount of levels and you'll typically replace the item before it gets too old. It's also not worthwhile to upgrade items with gem sockets since the value of the gem will be greater than the increased ilvl that comes with the upgrade.

You will be presented with a small box when you click on the upgrade option for an item. It will display the item's template, the Crest, as well as the Valorstone cost to raise the item's level. Weapons and armor will have different costs, with the latter usually being more expensive. The upgrade template shows the stats that will be added to the upgraded item upgrade. It will also list its current ilvl.

The cost of the Valorstone and Crest is calculated using the current Ilvl of the item as well as the upgrade templates. Additionally the ilvl of a new upgraded item will be reduced by the template's lvl decrease percentage. For example, an upgrade of 8% will reduce the ilvl of a weapon by 8 to 88%.

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

In the upgrade template you can see the amount of damage or defense that the item will receive after being leveled up. This is displayed below the cost and upgrade percentages. Aside from practice equipment, all other weapons and armor gain the same stats when they are upgraded. The market will determine the worth of these stats. A weapon or armor with perfect rolls can command more than a non-upp’d version. The same applies to other pieces of armor such as tiaras and circlets.
