Path of Exile Item Upgrading
The best method to improve your gear in Path of Exile is through item upgrade s. This lets you enhance your gear without having to rely on expensive trades or drops. This article will show you how to upp your items effectively.
Upgrades to equipment provide a bonus on the item's stats. item upgrades depending on the rarity and quality of the upgrade component.
Components
Upgrade components are the parts that can make your weapons and armor more effective. They can be found by destroying enemies, buying them from karma vendors, or finding them in the form of item-spheres. They can also be rescued from equipment with them, or by utilizing the highest-quality salvage kits like the Black Lion Salvage Kit or Ascended Salvage Tool. Contrary to other products upgrade components, upgrade components aren't destroyed when they are removed from an item.
Upgrade components are typically used to improve an item but they can also be used for other purposes. They can be stacked to increase the level or experience gained by upgrading existing equipment or weapons. They can also be made to provide extra bonuses. A glyph that is crafted can boost the upgrade chances of its target while an upgrade boosts the attack or defense capabilities of a weapon.
You can attach an upgrade template to an item by selecting it from the edition GUI. It will display a list of upgrade components that the item can be upgraded to. You can also use the workbench for selecting an upgrade template. In either scenario, an item will be upgraded after enough upgrade components have been collected.
Each component is assigned an experience multiplier. This determines the amount of experience an item will gain when upgraded using that component. For instance, organic components have a an experience multiplier that is higher than mechanical ones. You should upgrade organic components first until you reach the next rank in the weapon or equipment, and then move on to mechanical upgrades.
Each item has an upgrade maximum number that is available for. The number of items that can be upgraded is determined by their upgradeable rank and the type of upgrade they are able to receive. The highest level of upgrade is a weapon with the tier 10. The most common weapon upgrade is a gun of tier 6 and a 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 the set piece or weapon will give it an increase of +1 to its primary stat. In subsequent upgrades the primary stats will be increased a bit more (for instance, +1 to 12+/13+/14+) Each time you upgrade the item it will have one of its additional stats is boosted randomly.
Upgrades to a weapon may increase the damage base, which may be important for some builds. Weapons aren't upgraded to give greater maximum defence rolls than their base. Upgrades can be a great method to increase the value of some set and unique items, but it's important to remember that they might not be more effective than a high-level raneword in any build.
If an item you're upgrading comes with a guaranteed bonus, it can be rerolled a few times, and then its guarantee will reset to 0. The same amount of power dies are used to roll an item as it would be to upgrade it. However, the new item has different bonuses. Upgrades can be made through the NPC [Armor] Boboko in Central Flarine. To upgrade an item you will need the appropriate amount Minerals and Erons, as well as a power dice of each type. These are available at the crafting table or in the Ultra Collector and are available for purchase with Gold. The NPC will also offer an additional reward for each tier of the upgrade process. This reward can be rerolled one time with the same materials and components as the first item.
Rerolling
A player can roll any item they have acquired in the game provided they have enough tokens to be able to do so. When an upgraded item gets being rerolled, it can be exchanged for a version at a level 1 of the same item from a different set. Reroll tokens are available from the store for small amounts of in-game currency, but they are not refundable. The upgraded item will still come with the extra bonuses of the original one however its stats will differ also.
Players can change the identification of equipment in addition to rolling it again by interacting with an NPC upgrader. This will change the identity from an armor to a weapon or vice versa, while maintaining its base stats and the attributes it requires. The change is permanent and will affect all characters that are wearing the gear.
The player can also upgrade the level of the item for any equipment that is equipped. This can be done by talking to an upgrader NPC and obtaining upgrade items. The cost of upgrading will depend on the upgrade track, item type, and the number of crests. Each upgrade will add 5% more damage to weapons.
Upgrades can increase the effectiveness of an item, however they can also reduce its quality. It is therefore essential to strike a balance between the two. Certain items might not be worth upgrading at all and some will require to be upgraded to reach their potential. For instance, a player might decide to upgrade a piece breakpoint armor with an interesting modifier (% chance to block or FHR) to explore the possibilities of what it can be.
Rerolling is a standard practice in Genshin Impact and other gacha-based games. People do it to gain access to a character or weapon they would not otherwise be able to acquire. These items can be costly and time-consuming to acquire and the RNG does not always work in a positive way. The only other options are to spend real money or grind a lot. Rerolling is a very popular choice in Genshin Impact.
Leveling

You can choose whether to upgrade the weapon or armor after upgrading an item. But, this feature does absolutely nothing in the current game. I believe this feature was intended to add some value to rare and expensive items. However, since most items are replaced quite quickly, and can only be leveled up one level, you will usually replace it before it is too old. It's also not worth upgrading items using gem sockets since the power of the stone will outweigh any increase in the level of.
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 level of the item. 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. It will also list its current ilvl.
The cost of the Valorstone and the crest is calculated based on the current Ilvl of the item as well as the upgrade templates. Additionally, the ilvl of the new upgraded item will be decreased by the upgrade template's lvl decrease percentage. For instance an upgrade of 8% can reduce the ilvl of a weapon by 8 to 8percent.
In addition to the increase in ilvl base it will also receive upgrades in other stats like critical strike damage, PvE damage, block, parry and dodge rating. The increases are also built on the upgrade template.
In the upgrade template, you can see the amount of damage or defense the item will be able to sustain after it is leveled up. This is shown below the cost and the upgrade percentages. All armor and weapons, except 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 perfectly rolled weapon or piece of armor can command significantly more trade value than non-upp'd versions. The same applies to other armor pieces, such as tiaras and circlets.
