Path of Exile Item Upgrading
The best method to improve your equipment in Path of Exile is through item upgrade s. This lets you upgrade your gear without having depend on costly drops or trades. This article will show you how to upgrade your items efficiently.
Upgrades to equipment provide an increase in the item's stats. This bonus is based on the upgrade component level and rarity.
Components
Upgrade components can make your weapons and armour better. 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 salvaged from equipment that contains them or by using a high-tier salvage kit such as the Black Lion Salvage Kit or Ascended Salvage Tool. Unlike most other items, upgrade components are not destroyed when removed from an item.
Upgrade components are mostly used to upgrade an item, however, they can also be used for other purposes. They can be stacked in order to increase the level or the amount of experience gained by upgrading equipment or weapons. They can be forged to give additional benefits. A glyph that is crafted can boost the upgrade chances of its target, while an upgrade boosts the attack or defense capabilities of the weapon.
By selecting an upgrade template from the GUI will allow you to connect it to an item. This will display the upgrade components that the item can be updated. 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 has its own experience multiplier, which affects the amount of experience an item receives when it is upgraded with the component. Organic components, for example have more experience multipliers than mechanical components. You should upgrade organic components first until you reach the next rank in the weapon or equipment, and then switch to the mechanical upgrades.
Each item comes with an upgrade maximum number that is available for. The number of upgrades are determined by the rank that can be upgraded and the upgrade type of the upgradeable item. The highest level of upgrade is a weapon of the tier 10. However, the most popular weapon upgrades are an tier 6 weapon as well as an armor upgrade of tier 5.
Sets
A set is a group of items that have the benefit of. Each item can be upgraded at the minimum once. The upgrade will increase the amount of bonuses you can expect to receive. The first time you upgrade a set piece or weapon, it will receive an increase of +1 to its primary stat. On subsequent upgrades the stats of the primary one will be boosted a little further (for example, +1 up to 12+/13+/14+) Each time you upgrade the item with an additional stats is boosted randomly.
The upgrade of a weapon can increase its damage base, which can be important for some builds. Weapons aren't upgraded to give an increased maximum defence roll than their base. It is possible to increase value of specific sets and unique items by upgrading them, however they might not always be superior to a higher-level Runeword.
If an item you're upgrading has a guaranteed bonus, it can be rerolled a few times, and then its guarantee will reset to 0. Rerolling is the same amount of power dice as the process of leveling an item up, but the new item will have different extra bonuses. The NPC [ArmorBoboko Boboko can upgrade your armor in Central Flarine. To upgrade an item, you will need 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. These are available at the crafting table or in the Ultra Collector and can be purchased using Gold. The NPC will also offer an additional reward for each tier of the upgrade process. This reward can be rerolled a second time, and the reroll will be made using the same materials as the original item.
Rerolling
If the player has enough to reroll tokens, they are able to reroll any item that they've accumulated during the game. When 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 can be bought from the store for small amounts of in-game currency. However, they are not refundable. The new item will offer the same bonuses as the original, but the statistics will also be different.
Players can change the identity of equipment in addition to rerolling it by interacting with an upgrader NPC. This will change its identification from a weapon to an armor, or vice versa. The basic stats and requirements remain the same. The change is permanent and will affect all characters that are wearing the gear.
Players can also increase the level of an item equipped equipment by acquiring upgrade components and communicating with the NPC who upgrades the item. The cost will differ based on the upgrade track, the item type and number of crests. Each step will give 5% more damage to weapons.
Upgrades can increase the capability of an item, but they can also reduce the quality of an item. Therefore, it is important to balance the two. Certain items aren't worth upgrading, while other items need to be upgraded to maximize their potential. For instance one player might decide to upgrade a piece of breakpoint armor with an interesting modifier (% chance to block or FHR) to explore the possibilities of what it can be.
The primary reason why people reroll in Genshin Impact, or in any gacha-based game is because they're trying to obtain a particular character or weapon that they aren't able to obtain. Getting these items can be expensive and time-consuming, and the RNG gods aren't always willing to play. The only options left are to invest real money or grind for a long time. Rerolling is a popular option in Genshin Impact.
Leveling
You can decide to upgrade the weapon or armor after upgrading an item. This feature is not available in the current version of the game. I believe that this feature was designed to add some value to rare and expensive items. However, since most gear is replaced fairly quickly, and can only be upgraded by one level, you will generally replace it before it gets too old. It's not worth it to level items that have gem sockets since the value of the gem will far outweigh the increased ilvl that comes with the upgrade.
You will see a small window when you click on the upgrade option for an item. It will show the template of the item, the crest, and the cost of Valorstone to increase the item's level. Armor and weapons will have different costs, with the latter typically being more costly. The upgrade template lists the statistics that will be added to the upgraded item and will also list its current ilvl.
The cost of the Valorstone and the crest is calculated based on the item's current Ilvl and the upgrade templates. The ilvl is also reduced by the upgrade templates reduction percentage for lvl. For instance, an upgrade of 8% will reduce the ilvl of a weapon by 8 to 8%.
The item will receive 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.
In the upgrade template you can determine the amount of damage or defense an item will suffer after being leveled up. This is displayed below the cost and the upgrade percentages. item upgrading and weapons that are not practice equipment gain these stats upon leveling up. The market will determine the worth of these stats. A weapon or armor with perfect rolls can command an incredibly higher price than an unupp'd version. This is also true for other pieces of armor such as circlets or Tiaras.
