Path of Exile Item Upgrading

In Path of Exile, item upgrading is among the best ways to improve your gear without relying upon big-ticket drops or trade. This article will help you understand how to upgrade your gear.

Upgrading equipment grants an increase to the item's base stats. The bonus increases with upgrade component level and rarity.

Components

Upgrade components can make your armour and weapons stronger. They can be found through destroying enemies, buying them from karma vendors, or finding them in the form of item-spheres. They can also be salvaged from equipment that has them or by using the highest-quality salvage kits such as the Black Lion Salvage Kit or Ascended Salvage Tool. Contrary to other products, upgrade components are not destroyed when removed from an item.

Upgrade components are typically used to upgrade an item however, they can also be used for other purposes. They can be stacked to increase the level of an upgradeable item or they can be used to boost the amount of experience gained from upgrading an existing weapon or piece of equipment. They can also be forged to give additional bonuses. A crafted glyph can increase the chance of upgrading its target, while boost upgrades increase the attack or defense attributes of weapons.

Selecting an upgrade template from the GUI will allow you to connect it to an item. This will show the upgrade components that the item can be updated. You can also use the workbench for selecting an upgrade template. In either scenario the item will be upgraded once enough upgrade components are collected.

Each component is assigned an experience multiplier. This determines the amount of experience an item gains when upgraded using the component. item upgrades , like, have more experience multipliers than mechanical components. Therefore, it is recommended to upgrade with organic components until you have reached the experience multiplier for the next rank of equipment or weapon, and then change to mechanical upgrades.

In addition to the multiplier of experience every item also has an maximum number of upgrades it can receive. The number of upgrades are determined by the rank that can be upgraded and the upgrade type of the upgradeable item. The highest upgrade possible is a weapon of 10th level. However, the most common upgrades for weapons are a tier 6 weapon and an armor upgrade of tier 5.

Sets

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

The upgrade of a weapon can increase the damage base, which could be important for some builds. Weapons can't be upgraded for greater maximum defence rolls than their base. Upgrades can be a great method to increase the value of a set and unique items, but it is important to keep in mind that they may not be more effective than a high-level raneword in any build.

If an item you're upgrading comes with a guaranteed bonus that is guaranteed, it can be rerolled a few times, and then its guarantee will be reset to 0. Rerolling is the same amount of power dice as the process of leveling an item, but the upgraded item will come with different extra bonuses. Upgrades can be made by visiting the NPC [Armor] Boboko in Central Flarine. To upgrade an item, you will require the proper amount of Minerals and Erons and a power dice of each type. These can be purchased with Gold at the crafting table, or in the Ultra Collection. The NPC will also give a special reward for every tier that is completed of the upgrade process. This reward can be rerolled one time using the same materials as original item.

Rerolling

A player can play rerolling any item that they acquire during the game, provided they have enough tokens. If an upgraded item is being rerolled, it can be exchanged for the version at a level 1 of the same item in a different set. Reroll tokens are sold in the store for a small amount of in-game currency. They cannot be refunded. The new item will offer the same extra bonuses like the first, however the statistics will also differ.

Players can change the identification of equipment in addition to changing it's roll by interfacing with an NPC upgrader. The equipment's identification will change from a weapons to armor, or vice versa. The base stats and requirements remain the same. The change is permanent and will affect all characters that are wearing the gear.

Players can also boost the level of their item on any equipped device by obtaining upgrade components and communicating with the item's upgrader NPC. This will cost a set amount of crests as well as Valorstones depending on the upgrade track and item kind. Each step will add 5percent more damage to weapons.

Upgrades can boost the power of an item, however they can also reduce its quality. It is therefore important to find a balance between the two. Some items may not be worth upgrading at all, while others will need to be upgraded to realize their potential. A player may want to upgrade the breakpoint armor by adding an interesting modifier ( percent block chance 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 in order to get a character or weapon that they wouldn't otherwise have. These items can be time-consuming and expensive to acquire and the RNG isn't always a good fit. The only alternatives are to spend real money or grind extensively. This is why rerolling is a very popular option in Genshin Impact.

Leveling

When upgrading an item you can level up the weapon or armor. But, 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 gear in general drops fairly quickly and is only upgraded one level up, you'll usually replace the item before it gets old enough. It is also not worth upgrading items using gem sockets, as the power of the gemstone will outweigh any increase in the ilvl.

If you click the upgrade button on an item, you'll see a small window with the item's upgrade template and the crest and Valorstone costs to increase the item level. Armor and weapons have different costs, with the former generally being more expensive. The upgrade template shows the statistics that will be added to the upgraded item and it also lists the current ilvl.

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 decreased by the template's lvl decrease percentage. For example weapons with an upgrade decrease of 8% will reduce its value by 8-8 percent.

The item will get upgrades to other stats like critical strike damage, PvE damage, and block, parry, and dodge rating, in addition to the base level. 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 observed below the cost and upgrade decrease percentages in the upgrade template window. All armor and weapons that are not practice equipment get these stats when they level up. The market determines the value of these stats. A weapon or armor that has perfect rolls can fetch an incredibly higher price than an unupp'd version. The same applies to other armor pieces, such as tiaras and circlets.
