World of Warcraft - Item Upgrading

Upgrades to items allow players to boost an item upgrader kit's gear score up to 700 and add an additional perk. Items can be upgraded by keeping them in inventory, and then taking them to the kiln.

Certain items are worth upgrading because of their unique stats. (For example, a perfectly broken point armor that is rolled can be used in melee PvP). Other items, like weapons don't really change after an upgrade and aren't worth it.

Weapons

Weapons can be upgraded to increase their numeric stats like damage to attack, crit chance PvE and damage to PvP. Weapons have a flat-rate bonus that increases damage per second. Additionally there are many weapons with a set bonus that activates when three or more of the same weapon are equipped on a single unit. This bonus could exceed the damage that an upgrade alone can do.

The cost of upgrading a weapon's capabilities is contingent on the rarity of the weapon and its current level. For instance, a +2 weapon requires two regular Smithing Stones while a+3 requires four. The number of stones required to upgrade the weapon will continue to rise until it requires the higher level of Smithing Stones, at which the number will be reset to one.

Upgrades to weapons also change the stats of the base. While this is generally a good thing, it can have some negative consequences as well. In the case of items that are only used in a specific build (Whistant's shield for FB Sorcs, for example) upgrading them could make them unusable unless you happen to have an extremely fortunate roll.

Armor items can also be upgraded to boost their stats. In the case of a helm or chest, this will increase its base defense while gloves and belts improve their required strength and dexterity. Armor also offers an option to reroll its Enhanced Defense percent, which means that it could reroll to a lower value.

The upgrade template of a weapon will display the new stats that it will gain when upgrading, along with the relative values of those stats. This means that a change from a sword that has 8 damage to an 11 attack-damage sword will result in a weapon receiving 3% of attack damage. However the 3% difference doesn't mean that it will strike for 3 fewer times as it is an absolute number.

A weapon can also be rerolled using the green button that has arrows that circle in the item upgrader kit menu. This will reroll the item and alter its stats but it won't reset the weapon's levels or connect to the status of your account.

Armor

A few upgrades to your armor can make a huge difference to your survival. Certain sets can provide MASSIVE increases in resistance to poison, curses, fire, and magic. This makes it easier to navigate difficult areas. In general, the greater defense you have for your character, the greater health you will receive from each point. So, it's best to upgrade items your armor.

To improve your armor, head to one of the Great Fairy Fountains in the game. There are four fountains in all each of which requires you to complete a specific side quest involving the Stable Trotters musical troupe. Once you've completed the main quest, and the corresponding fountains, you'll have the option of talking to any Great Fairy in order to unlock the menu for upgrading armor.

Each piece of armor can be upgraded to three levels, and the amount of material and Rupees needed for each level will differ. In general, you're looking at anywhere between three Red Chuchu jellies and 10 Rupees for the initial upgrade, and then anywhere from five Rubies and 10 Fire-Breath Horns for each subsequent one. For instance the Champion Leathers could be upgraded to +5 defense, which allows you to keep pace with a large group of adversaries in most cold environments, and the Snowquill Headdress can be upgraded up to +20 defense, giving you enough protection to withstand the full-on assault with a handful of friends.

Note that armor can't be upgraded the same way as weapons, so you'll want to work on upgrading it to gain physical power if you're Warrior or Spell Power if you're a Mage. It's also worth saving your armor upgrades for the armor you'll be wearing at the end of the game, like the Ring of Lightning and Spectral Shield, or the helmet you use to fight the final boss and the Monter Parts Merchant's mask.

You can also get some perks for your armor by presenting the jeweler at Gerudo Town 10 Twinkling Titanite. Generally speaking, you'll want to save these upgrades for the weapon you'll be using to win the game such as the Longsword, Battleaxe or Warhammer However, it is beneficial to have a few upgrades to your chest armor and helmets to allow you to stealth around some monsters.

Potions

Potions are bottled substances that, if consumed, give the player the illusion of status for a few minutes. There are five kinds of potions, each having particular effects and durations. Some potions can be upgraded to increase their effectiveness. Additionally the effects of certain potions can be enhanced by adding glowstone dust or redstone to them.

Upgrades to potion require a certain amount XP. This can be earned by making them on a crafting table, or by storing them in the Alchemist chest. However, the cost of upgrading is dependent on the type of potion you want to upgrade, as well as on the item's Mark Level and Rarity.

To upgrade a potion, right-click on it in your inventory and select the "Upgrade" option from the menu. This will open an GUI that allows you to select the potion you want to upgrade and the amount of experience they'll offer when upgraded. You can upgrade potions in batches up to five at a time, and their XP will be added to the total amount of XP you have.

When a poton is upgraded and stored, it will not degrade unless you use it again or break the bottle within the container it is stored. Clicking on the potion in your inventory will also allow you to rename it.

There were some changes to the mechanics of potion in version 1.7.2. Splash potions, for example are now available with a time of that is 0:08 instead of 22.5 seconds shown on the hover display of the item. The table for potion is constructed from four Wood Planks, and two Glass. It is now able to be utilized in both Survival and Bedrock. Unlike the Java Edition, Bedrock edition potions cannot be combined in cauldrons. Similarly, using a potion in a cauldron that is full drains the liquid and replenishes the bottle.

Lastly, there are now lingering potions that are brewed with dragon breath and splash potions. Redstone can be added to lingering potions to extend their effect. The potion table is rearranged to look more like the Java Edition. New potions have also been added, such as the potion of leaping and decomposition.

Trinkets

A trinket could be a small, inexpensive ornament or piece jewelry. It could be a reference to an object or decoration that serves a purpose, but isn't particularly significant, such as a tiny thimble. In some cultures, a trinket is used to signify friendship or affection, especially between family members.

Trinkets can be upgraded by players in addition to weapons, armor, and potions. These can be upgraded by going to an upgrade vendor and paying the appropriate amount in currency. Unlike other item upgrades trinkets are able to be swapped out at will without losing their stats.

The upgrade vendors can be found in major cities and in the capital of each zone, and in some instances in dungeons. Upgrades for trinkets are offered using tokens, gold, or fragments from rare trinkets.

Upgrades are a less expensive alternative to buying a new trinket. You can upgrade a trinket with just 12 tokens. The new trinket will feature the same base ilvl as previous one, and will include an additional 1% upgrade bonus.

Trinkets can be upgraded when they are not needed, allowing a player to increase their power and value over time. They can be traded among players, making them an alternative to gold.

In general players should upgrade their highest priority items first. This typically means the top-of-the-line items for their class, then their secondaries and then other gear items that they will not be replacing soon (for example, a ring or cloak). Players should also consider their class's preferred stats when deciding the items to upgrade. If Haste and Crit are two of the most important stats for a tank player and they want to upgrade their chest, helm and shoulders.

Trinkets can be re-upgraded to a higher level once they're no longer needed and the new trinket can be upgraded to have an additional 1% upgrade bonus. However, a re-upgrade can destroy the old trinket until it is salvaged using the Black Lion Salvage Kit or an additional salvage tool of higher quality. Upgrades to trinkets are more expensive than other upgrades, but still less expensive than purchasing a new one.
