7 Things About Item Upgrading You ll Kick Yourself For Not Knowing
World of Warcraft - item upgrader Upgrading
Item upgrading allows players to boost the gear score of an item upgrader kit to 700 and add a final perk. Items can be upgraded by keeping them in inventory and heading to the kiln.
Certain items can be upgraded to increase their stats (like perfect broken point armour that is rolled for melee PvP) while others like weapons do not vary greatly post upgrade, so they aren't worth upgrading.
Weapons
Weapons can be upgraded to increase their numeric stats like damage to attack, crit chance, PvE and damage to PvP. They also have a flat bonus which increases the damage they deal per second. A lot of weapons also come with a fixed bonus that is activated when three or more identical weapons are placed in a unit. This bonus may exceed the damage that an upgrade alone can cause.
A weapon's upgrade costs depend on the nature of the weapon as well as its current level. For instance, an upgrade to a +2 weapon requires two regular Smithing Stones while a+3 requires four. The number of stones needed to upgrade a weapon will increase until it needs a higher level of Smithing Stones. At that point it will reset to one.
Upgrades to weapons will also change the stats of their base. This is usually a positive thing, but it can also have negative consequences. For items that are only used in a particular build (Whistant's shield for FB sorcs for instance) upgrading them could render them useless unless you happen to have an extremely lucky roll.
The ability to upgrade armor items to increase their effectiveness. For example, if you upgrade chests or helms, this will increase its defense base while a belt and gloves will increase their strength and dexterity. Armor also has a reroll option for its Enhanced Defense%, meaning that it may change its roll to a lower value.
The upgrade template of a weapon will show the new stats it will gain after upgrading, as well as the relative value of those stats. This means that a weapon will gain an attack damage of 3% if it is upgraded from an 8 attack damage sword to an 11 attack damage sword. The 3% doesn't mean that the weapon will strike 3 times less, as it is an absolute number.
Rerolling a weapon is possible by pressing the green button in the item menu with the arrows that circle. This will reroll an item and change its statistics, but not reset the weapon's level or bind it to account status.
Armor
A few tweaks to your armor can make a a huge difference in your ability to endure. Certain sets can provide MASSIVE improvements in the resistance to curses, poisons fire, magic, and other. This can make it easier to get through difficult areas. In general, the more defense you have for your character, the greater health you can gain from each point. Therefore, it is recommended to upgrade your armor.
To upgrade your armor, go to any of the Great Fairy Fountains in the game. There are four fountains in all and each one requires you to complete a unique 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.
The amount of material needed to upgrade each piece of armor will differ. In general, you're looking at anything from three to five Red Chuchu Jellies and ten Rupees for the initial upgrade, and then anywhere from five Rubies and ten Fire-Breath Lizalfos Horns for each subsequent upgrade. The Champion Leathers, for instance can be upgraded to an increase of 5 defense rating, which will allow you to remain competitive in frigid environments with a lot of enemies. The Snowquill Headdress, on the other is able to be upgraded to +20 defense, which means you're able to survive a battle with your friends.
It isn't possible to upgrade armor in the same way as weapons. If you're playing as a Warrior then you should concentrate on upgrading your armor for physical power or spell power. It is also recommended to save your armor upgrades to upgrade the armor that you will still be wearing by the end of the story, such as the Ring of Lightning, Spectral Shield or the mask you wear in the final boss fight, the Monter Parts Merchant Mask.
By giving the jeweler 10 Twinkling Titanite in Gerudo Town and you will be able to gain some benefits to your armor. You'll typically want to keep these upgrades to the weapon you'll use to win the game. For example, the Longsword or Battleaxe. However, it's beneficial to have some upgrades to the helmets and chest armor to let you get around a few monsters.
Potions
Potions are bottled substances that, when consumed give the user a temporary status effect. There are five different types of potions, each with particular effects and durations. Some potions can be upgraded to enhance their effectiveness. Alternatively the effects of some potions can be enhanced by adding redstone or glowstone dust them.
Potion upgrades require a certain amount XP. This can be earned by crafting them on a table or by storing them in the Alchemist chest. However, the upgrade price will vary based on the type of potion you want to upgrade, as well as on the item's Mark Level and Rarity.
To upgrade a potion, click right on it in your inventory and select the "Upgrade" option from the menu. This opens a GUI where you can select the potions you wish to upgrade and the amount of XP they'll produce when upgraded. The upgrade of potions can be completed in batches of up to five at a time and the XP they earn will be added to your current XP total.
Once a potion has been upgraded, it will not degrade until you use it again or break the bottle it's stored in. You can also change the name of the potion by clicking it in your inventory.
Version 1.7.2 introduced a few modifications to the mechanics of potions. Splash potions, for example have now a duration of zero, not the 22.5 seconds that are displayed on the hover display for the Best item upgrader. The potion table is now crafted from four Wood Planks, and two Glass. It is now able to be used in both Survival and Bedrock. In contrast to the Java Edition, Bedrock edition potions can't be mixed in cauldrons. The same is true for the use of a potion in the cauldron that is filled. This will drain the potion and refill the bottle.
In addition, there are lingering potions, which are brewed with dragon breath and splash potions. In the same way, a lingering potion effect can be extended by adding redstone. The table of potion ingredients is now arranged more like the Java Edition, and new potions were added, such as the potion of leaping and the decomposition potion, and turtle master potions.
Trinkets
A trinket is a small and cheap ornament or piece of jewelry. It could be a reference to an object or decoration that serves a function but is not particularly important like a tiny thimble. In some cultures, trinkets are used to symbolize friendship or affection, especially between family members.
In addition to weapons, armor and potions, players can upgrade their trinkets. These can be upgraded by visiting an upgrade items vendor and paying the appropriate amount in currency. Unlike other item upgrades, trinkets can be exchanged at will without losing their status.
Upgrade vendors are located at the capitals of each zone, and sometimes in dungeons. Upgrades for trinkets can be bought with tokens, gold or fragments of a rare trinket.
Upgrades are a less expensive alternative to buying a brand new trinket. It is possible to upgrade a player for as little as 12 tokens. The new trinket will have the same level of base as the old trinket but will also have an additional 1% bonus upgrade.
When the old Trinkets are not usable they can be upgraded. This allows a player to increase their power and value with time. They can also be traded between players which makes them a popular alternative to gold.
In general players should make upgrades to their top-priority items first. This typically means the top-of-the-line items for their class, followed by their secondaries, and finally other gear items that they won't replace in the near future (for example, a ring or cloak). Players should also take into consideration 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, then they should upgrade their chest, helm, and shoulders.
When they are no longer useful trinkets can be upgraded to a higher level. The new trinket has an additional 1percent bonus. Re-upgrading can cause damage to the trinket unless it can be saved using the Black Lion Salvage Kit, or a salvage tool. Upgrades to trinkets are more expensive than other upgrades, but still less expensive than buying an entirely new trinket.
