Path of Exile item upgrade Upgrading
The best method to upgrade your gear in Path of Exile is through item upgrades. This allows you to enhance your gear without having to depend on costly drops or trades. This article will teach you how to upgrade your gear effectively.
Upgrades to equipment grant a bonus on the item’s stats. The bonus is depending on the rarity and level of the upgrade component.
Components
Upgrade components are the things that make your weapons and armor more effective. They can be obtained by destroying enemies, finding them in spheres of items or purchasing them from karma sellers. You can also get them from equipment containing the components or by using high-end salvage kits like Black Lion Salvage Kit and Ascended Salvage Tool. Upgrade components are not destroyed when you remove them from the item.
The main function of upgrade components is to enable an item to be upgraded, but they also serve other functions. They can be stacked to boost the value of an upgradeable item upgrader mod, or they can be used to increase the experience gained by upgrading an existing weapon or piece of gear. They can also be forged to give additional bonuses. A crafted glyph can increase the chances of upgrading its target, and boost upgrades increase the attack or defense attributes of a weapon.
Selecting an upgrade template from the GUI will allow you to bind it to an item. This will display the upgrade components to which the item can be updated. Alternately, you can utilize the workbench to select an upgrade template. In either case, an item will be upgraded when enough upgrade components have been gathered.
Each component has a distinct experience multiplier that affects how much more experience an item upgrader will gain when it is upgraded by the component. For instance, organic components offer a higher experience multiplier than mechanical ones. It is recommended to upgrade organic components first until you reach the next rank in the weapon or equipment, and then move on to mechanical upgrades.
In addition to the multiplier of experience Each item also comes with an maximum number of upgrades that it can receive. The number of items that can be upgraded is determined by their upgradeable rank, and the kind of upgrade they can get. For example, the highest possible upgrade for a weapon is a tier 10 weapon. The most commonly used upgrade is a tier 6 gun and an armor upgrade of tier 5.
Sets
A set is a group of items that have the benefit of. Each item in the set can be upgraded at least one time, and the upgrade will increase its guaranteed bonuses. The first time you upgrade an item or set piece is that it will be given an increase of +1 to its primary stat. On subsequent upgrades the primary stats will be increased a bit more (for example, +1 to 12+/13+/14+), and each time you upgrade the item, one of its extra stats is increased randomly.
Upgrades to a weapon may increase its damage base, which could be important for some builds. Weapons cannot be upgraded for greater maximum defence rolls than their base. It is a good method to increase the value of some set and unique items, but it’s important to note that they’re not necessarily superior to a high-level runeword in any build.
If an item you’re upgrading has a guaranteed bonus, it can be rerolled a few times and its guarantee will be reset to 0. The same power die is used to roll an item upgrades, 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 the proper amount of Minerals and Erons and a power dice of each kind. These can be purchased with Gold at the crafting table or in the Ultra Collection. NPCs also offer special rewards for each stage of the upgrade process. This reward can be rerolled once and will use the same materials as the original item.
Rerolling
If a player has enough to reroll tokens, they are able to roll any item they’ve acquired 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 store for a small sum of in-game currency. They are non-refundable. The new upgraded item will have the same benefits of the previous one, but its stats will differ too.
Players can change the identity of equipment in addition to changing it’s roll by interfacing with an NPC upgrader. This will change the identification from a weapons to armor, or reverse the process. The basic requirements and stats remain the same. The change is permanent and will affect all characters that are wearing the gear.
The player can also upgrade their item level for any equipment that is equipped. This can be done by engaging with an upgrader NPC, and then obtaining upgrade item items. The cost will differ based on the upgrade track, the item type and the number of crests. Each step will add an additional 5% of damage to weapons.
Upgrades can boost the effectiveness of an item, but they can also reduce the quality of an item. It is therefore important to find a balance between these two. Some items aren’t worth upgrading, while others require upgrading to make them more effective. A player may want to upgrade breakpoint armor with an interesting modification ( percent block chance, or FHR) in order to see what else it can be.
Rerolling is a standard practice in Genshin Impact and other gacha-based games. It is a method used by players in order to get the character or weapon they would not otherwise be able to acquire. These items can be expensive and time-consuming, and the RNG gods don’t always want to play ball. The only alternative is to invest money or grind for a long time. Rerolling is a popular option in Genshin Impact.
Leveling
When upgrading an item you can choose to level up the weapon or armor. This feature is not available in the current version of the game. I believe this feature was intended to give value to rare and expensive items. However, since the majority of equipment is replaced quickly and can only be upgraded by one level, you will generally replace it before it is too old. It’s not worth upgrading items with gem sockets, as the power of the gem will outweigh any increase in the ilvl.
You will see a small window when you click the upgrade option on an item. It will show the template for the item, its Crest, as well as the cost of Valorstone to increase the item’s level. Weapons and armor will have different costs, with the latter usually being more expensive. The upgrade template shows the statistics that will be added to the upgraded item and will also list its current ilvl.
The crest and Valorstone costs are calculated based on the item’s current ilvl as well as the upgrade template. The ilvl is also reduced by the upgrade template’s reduction percentage of lvl. For instance the weapon that has an 8% upgrade decrease will reduce its value by 8-8 percent.
In addition to the base ilvl boost it will also be upgraded in other stats such as critical strike damage, damage from PvE and dodge, block and parry rating. These enhancements are also based on the upgrade template.
In the upgrade template, you can check the amount of damage or defense that the item will receive after being leveled up. This is listed below the cost and upgrade percentages. In addition to practice equipment, all weapons and armor gain these same stats when leveled up. The market determines the value of these stats. A weapon or armor with perfect rolls can command a much higher price than a non-upp’d version. The same applies to other pieces of armor, such as circlets and tiaras.
