10 Undeniable Reasons People Hate Item Upgrading

World of Warcraft - Item Upgrading

The upgrade of an Item upgrader kit allows players to increase the gear score of an item upgrade up to 700 and also add an additional perk. Items can be upgraded if they are in your inventory and you take them to the kiln.

Certain items can be upp'd to benefit from their unique stats (like a perfectly rolled breakpoint armour used in melee PvP) while other items, such as weapons don't change much post upgrade and thus aren't worth upgrading.

Weapons

Upgrades to weapons can increase their numerical stats, such as attack damage, crit chance, and PvE/PvP damage. Weapons also have a flat bonus which increases their damage per second. In addition there are many weapons with a set bonus which is activated when three or more of the same weapon are equipped on a single unit. In some instances, this bonus could amount to more than the amount of damage that a weapon upgrades on its own.

The cost of upgrading a weapon depends on its rarity and current level. For example the weapon with a +2 rating will require two regular Smithing Stones to upgrade while a +3 requires four. The number of stones required to upgrade the weapon will continue to rise until it requires an upgrade to a higher level of Smithing Stones, at which the amount will be reset to one.

Upgrades to weapons also alter the stats of the base. While this is usually an excellent thing, it can have some negative effects as well. Upgrades can make items impossible to use, unless you are very lucky.

Armor items can also be upgraded to boost their performance. In the case of a helm or chest, it will boost the defense of its base, while gloves and belts enhance their required strength and dexterity. Armor offers a rerolling option for its Enhanced Defense%. This means that it is able to reroll down to a lower value.

The upgrade template of a weapon will show the new stats that it will gain when upgrading, as well as the relative values of those stats. This means that an upgrade from a sword with 8 damage to an 11-attack-damage sword will result in the weapon gaining an attack damage of 3. However the 3% difference doesn't mean that it will hit for 3 times less often, since it is an absolute statistic.

A weapon can also be rerolled using the green button that has circling arrows in the item upgrader menu. The item upgrader will be rerolled and alter its stats however, it will not reset the weapon's level nor bind to account status.

Armor

Making a few improvements to your armor can make a an enormous difference in your capacity to withstand. Certain sets can offer massive increases in resistance to curses, poisons and fire as well as magic. This can make it easier to traverse difficult terrains. The more defense your character has the more value you get from each point of health therefore it is important to upgrade your armor as much as possible.

To improve your armor, head to any of the Great Fairy Fountains in the game. There are four Great Fairy Fountains in the game and in order to unlock each one you have to complete an additional quest involving the Stable Trotters. After you've completed your main quest, and the corresponding fountains, you'll have the option of talking to any Great Fairy in order to unlock the armor upgrade menu.

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

You can't upgrade armor in the same way as weapons. If you're playing as a Warrior it is best to focus on upgrading your armor to increase physical strength or spell power. It's also a good idea to save your armor upgrades for armor you'll still be wearing at the end of the game, such as the Ring of Lightning and Spectral Shield, or the helmet you use to fight the final boss and the Monter Parts Merchant's mask.

By giving the jeweler 10 Twinkling Titanite in Gerudo Town and you will be able to unlock perks for your armor. It is generally recommended to save these upgrades for the weapon you'll be using to beat the game. For instance the Longsword or Battleaxe. However, it's beneficial to have a few upgrades to the armor on your chest and helmets to allow you to get around a few monsters.

Potions

Potions are bottled substances that, when consumed, give the player a temporary status effect. There are five different types of potions, each with specific effects and durations. Certain potions can be upgraded to enhance their level of effectiveness. You can also enhance the effects of certain potions by adding redstone dust and glowstone dust.

Upgrades to potion cost a certain amount of XP, which can be earned by making them on a table or in an chest of the Alchemist. However, the upgrade price is dependent on the kind of potion you wish to upgrade, and also on the item's Mark Level and rarity.

To upgrade a potions simply right-click on it in your inventory. Then, select "Upgrade" from the menu. This opens a GUI where you can select the potions you want to upgrade and the amount of XP they'll produce when upgraded. Upgrades to potions can be made in batches of up to five at a time, and the XP that they generate will be added to your current XP total.

Once a potion has been upgraded, it will not be degraded until you re-use it, or break the bottle it is stored in. You can also change the name of the potion by clicking on it in your inventory.

There were some changes to potion mechanics in version 1.7.2. Splash potions for instance are now available with a time of zero, not the 22.5 seconds shown on the hover display of the item upgrader mod. The potion table is constructed from four Wood Planks, and two Glass. It can now be used in both Survival and Bedrock. Bedrock Edition potions are not compatible with cauldrons like Java Edition. Additionally, using a potentio on a full cauldron, it drains the contents and refills the bottle.

Finally, there are lingering potions that are brewed with dragon breath and splash potions. Redstone is also added to lingering potions to enhance their effects. The table of potions is rearranged to look more like the Java Edition. New potions have also been added, such as the potion of leaping as well as decomposition.

Trinkets

A trinket can be described as a small and affordable ornament or piece of jewelry. It may be a reference to a piece of art or a decoration that serves a purpose but isn't particularly significant such as a tiny thimble. In some cultures, a trinket is a way to express friendship or affection between family members.

In addition to weapons, armor and potions, players can upgrade their trinkets. Upgrades can be purchased by paying the appropriate currency to an upgrade vendor. As with other upgrades to items, trinkets can be exchanged at will without losing their status.

Upgrade vendors can be found at the capitals of each zone, and in some instances in dungeons. Upgrades for trinkets are offered with tokens, gold or fragments of rare trinkets.

Upgrades to trinkets are an affordable alternative to buying a new one. You can upgrade a trinket with as little as 12 tokens. The new trinket has the same base level as the old trinket, but will also have an additional bonus of 1% upgrade.

When the old Trinkets are not usable they can be upgraded. This allows a player to increase both their power and value over time. They can also be traded between players, making them an attractive alternative to gold.

Players should upgrade their most essential items first. This usually refers to the most valuable-in-slot items for their class, then their secondaries, and finally other pieces of gear that they won't replace soon (for example, a ring or cloak). When deciding the items to upgrade, players should also be aware of the preferred statistics of their class. If Haste and Crit are two of the most important stats for tank players, then they should upgrade their helm, chest and shoulders.

After they've become unusable trinkets can be upgraded to a greater level. The new trinket has an additional 1percent bonus. Re-upgrading can cause damage to the trinket unless it can be salvaged using the Black Lion Salvage Kit, or a salvage tool. This makes upgrading trinkets more expensive than other upgrades, but is still cheaper than buying a new one.
