Path of Exile Item Upgrading
The best way to improve your gear in Path of Exile is through upgrade of your items. This lets you improve it without having to depend on costly trades or drops. This article will teach you how to upgrade your gear effectively.
Upgrades to equipment give an increase in the item's stats. This bonus scales with the upgrade component's level and rarity.
Components
Upgrade components can make your armour and weapons better. You can find them through destroying enemies, buying them from karma sellers or finding them in item-spheres. They can also be salvaged from equipment that has them, or by utilizing an advanced salvage kit such as the Black Lion Salvage Kit or Ascended Salvage Tool. In contrast to other items upgrade components, upgrade components aren't destroyed when removed from an item.
The main purpose of upgrade components is to enable an item to be upgraded, but they also serve other purposes. 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 example, a created glyph can increase the chances of upgrading its target, whereas an upgrade boost will increase the attack or defense attribute of a weapon or armor.
By selecting an upgrade template from the GUI will let you bind it to an item. This will show an upgrade component list that the item can be upgraded to. Alternatively, you can make use of the workbench to choose an upgrade template. In either scenario the item will be upgraded after enough upgrade components have been collected.
Each component has its own experience multiplier, which affects the amount of experience an item receives when it upgrades with the component. improve items , for instance have more experience multipliers than mechanical components. It is therefore best to upgrade with organic components until you have reached the multiplier of experience for the next rank of the weapon or gear, then move to mechanical upgrades.
In addition to the multiplier for experience, each item also has the maximum number of upgrades that it can receive. The number of upgrades are determined by the rank that can be upgraded and the type of upgrade available to the upgradeable item. The highest upgrade possible is a weapon with the tier 10. The most popular weapon upgrade is a gun of tier 6 and an armor upgrade of tier 5.
Sets
A set is a set of items that all share the same bonus. Each item in the set can be upgraded at least once, and the upgrade will increase the guaranteed bonuses. When you first upgrade an item or set piece will give it a +1 increase to its primary stat. On subsequent upgrades, the primary stats will be boosted a little further (for example, +1 up to 12+/13+/14+), and each time you upgrade the item with an additional stats will be increased randomly.
Upgrades to a weapon may increase the damage base, which may be necessary for certain builds. Weapons can't be upgraded for greater maximum defence rolls than their base. Upgrades can be a great option to increase the value of some set and unique items, but it is important to keep in mind that they're not necessarily better than a high-level runeword in any build.
If you're upgrading an item with an added bonus, the item can be rerolled one time and the guarantee will reset to 0. The same power dies are used to reroll an item as it would be to increase its level. However, the new item has different bonuses. The NPC [Armor] 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 right 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 give a special reward for every tier that is completed of the upgrade process. This reward can be rerolled a second time and the reroll will use the same materials used in the original item.
Rerolling
If the player has enough tokens for rerolling, they can reroll any item that they've accumulated during the game. If an upgraded item is to be rerolled, it will be exchanged for the level 1 version of the same item in another set. Reroll tokens are sold in the shop for a small amount of in-game currency. They cannot be refunded. The new item will have the same extra bonuses as the previous one, but the stats will be different.
In addition to rerolling items, players can also alter the identification of any item by interfacing with an upgrader NPC. This will change its identification as a weapon to armor or vice versa. Its base stats and requirements will remain the same. The change will be permanent and will affect all characters who own the equipment.
Players can also boost the level of their item on any equipped equipment by acquiring upgrade components and interacting with the upgrader NPC of the item. The cost of upgrading will depend on the upgrade track, item type and number of crests. Each step will give 5percent more damage to weapons.
The upgrade of an item can make it more powerful however it can reduce its effectiveness. Therefore, it is important to strike a balance between the two. Some items aren't worth upgrading, whereas others require upgrading to make them more effective. One player may wish to upgrade breakpoint armor with an interesting modification ( percent block chance, or FHR) to explore what else it can become.
The primary reason why people reroll in Genshin Impact, or in any gacha-based game is because they are trying to obtain a particular weapon or character that they aren't able to obtain. These items can be costly and time-consuming and the RNG gods do not always want to play. The only options left is to shell out real money or grind for a long time. Rerolling is a popular feature in Genshin Impact.
Leveling
You can choose whether to upgrade the weapon or armor when you upgrade an item. This feature is not available in the current version of the game. I think it was meant to be a way to give some value to rare items, but because the majority of gear drops quickly and can only be upgraded once you've reached a certain level and you'll typically replace the item before it gets old enough. It's also not worth it to upgrade items that have gem sockets since the value of the gem will far outweigh the increase in ilvl with the upgrade.
You will see a small window 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 level. Armor and weapons will have different costs, with the former typically being more costly. The upgrade template shows the stats that will be added to the upgraded item and it also lists the current ilvl.
The cost of the Valorstone and Crest is calculated using the current Ilvl of the item and the upgrade templates. The ilvl will also be decreased by the upgrade templates reduction percentage for lvl. For instance an upgrade of 8% will decrease 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 like critical strike damage, PvE damage and dodge, block, and parry rating. These upgrades are also based on the upgrade template.
In the upgrade template you can check the amount of damage or defense the item will suffer after being leveled up. This is displayed below the cost and the upgrade percentages. All armor and weapons that are not practice equipment get these stats once they've been leveled up. The market will determine the value of these stats. A weapon or armor that has perfect rolls can command an incredibly higher price than an unupp'd version. The same applies to other pieces of armor, such as circlets and tiaras.
