World of Warcraft Item Upgrades
Upgrades to items are an essential aspect of preparing your character. Upgrades increase the damage of your item and enhancements.
They also offer bonus effects and enhancements. The Blacksmith can also sell them to you.
Players can recycle any item by pressing the upgrade button on it. Each recycled item adds one level to the gauge for upgrading.
Weapon
When a weapon is upgraded, it gains a base damage bonus as well as an increase in the scaling factor that affects other stats. The weapon may also gain a number of upgrade components, which provide additional effects or attributes as well as unique cosmetic effects. These upgrades can be put into armor, weapons trinkets, or gathering tools, and they generally require the equipment to have an available upgrade slot and meet certain requirements. The upgrade component can be removed from a weapon, armor or trinket, however it cannot be replaced. (Except for legendary equipment). Upgrade components can be found by using the Black Lion Salvage Kit Ascended Salvage tool, or a high-tier salvaging tool that is attached to an item.
A weapon can also be upgraded to include a Calibration attribute that increases certain stats, for example Weakspot damage or Crit Rate. This is done via the Gear Workbench's interaction menu. This can be done four times based on the weapon's level.
Once the weapon has reached max upgrade, it can be reforged with a number of different upgrade types to boost specific stats or to add bonuses and effects. All of these upgrades can be applied simultaneously and their effects will depend on how rare the weapon is.
There are two Blacksmiths in the game who can perform these upgrades: Blacksmith Hewg in the Church of Elleh hub area, and Smithing Master Iji in the Road to the Manor Site of Grace. Both upgrade materials differ: Smithing Stones to modify the damage weapon does and Somber Smithing Stones to modify standard weapons.
upgrade item is generally advised to improve weapon damage first, then armour defense, then the other secondary stats that are required by your build. It is not uncommon to see melee Druids upgrade their weapon before upgrading any other equipment. This helps maximize DPS. This is particularly true for enchantments that can increase a weapon's stats as well as damage.
Armor
Item Upgrades allow players to increase the effectiveness of certain armors, weapons, trinkets, and gathering tools. These upgrades can also bring additional effects, for example, more damage or a cosmetic enhancement. Item Upgrades can be obtained through crafting, buying from NPC vendors, through loot drops, or as rewards from quests.
The armor can be upgraded by visiting the Armorer NPC, and spending the appropriate currency. In the majority of cases, a piece of armor will be upgraded to the next level once an upgrade is applied. This is possible for most types of armor, though certain types of armor cannot be upgraded at all (such as the starter armor in Great Sky Island).
Most armor upgrades offer some improvement to an item's defense base or strength. However, certain upgrade components can give significant improvements in defense or strength, particularly when upgrading an epic item.
In addition to increasing the defense of an item, certain upgrades also give specific abilities that can be activated when wearing an armor. These abilities can be useful in combat, such as giving a boost to attack speed or blocking. Certain upgrades also have passive effects, such as cutting down on the amount of damage that is taken while wearing armor or adding a chance to dodge attacks.
Upgrades to armor could require several attempts, depending on the type. If a player wishes to upgrade Steelclash armor to Dragonscale The first attempt will result in a brand new Dragonscale armor with a defense base between 59-67. The second attempt will result in a Dragonscale armor that has the base defense of between 67-77.
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild lets players upgrade their armor sets to level 4. To upgrade their armor, players must visit the four Great Fairy Fountains found in the game. Each of these locations holds a powerful fairy who can upgrade a piece of armor for the player.
Contrary to popular belief armor in The Division 2 is not useful. The fact of the matter is that some armors have very significant boosts to poison or curse, fire, or magical damage reduction, making them extremely useful for certain builds. There are other ways to improve armor stats beyond the use of upgradeable armor such as the engineer trait to boost armor penetration or the challenger trait that reduces the weight of the entire armor.
Potion
A potion can be upgraded by putting it in a brewing stand to unlock new effects. The upgrade unlocks another effect tier, and is able to be repeated for more potencies.
The potion also has a custom color code, which the player can choose via /give, and that alters the area-of-effect clouds and arrows generated by the potions. In Bedrock Edition the custom potion color is also applied to the particle effects of the potions.
The water bottle, the mundane, thick and awkward potions now have a new texture for brewing. Added potion of weakness and healing potion in the Creative inventory. The potions are lingering and can be prepared using dragon breath or splash potions and a strong potion with the status effect Mining Fatigue (duration 4 hours). Bug Tracker is the place for you to report issues with this patch.
Trinket
A trinket could be an inexpensive, small ornament or piece jewelry. This can be a ring, necklace or even a tiny flag to identify a boat's yard that is lateen. It could also refer to a gold-plated trinket on the mast of a ship.
This bizarre trinket seems to be influencing the residents of this maze by making them more common. This trinket at its current level makes all types Xx of mimics more prevalent and gives each floor a Y% chance that it has an ebony replica. This trinket costs a moderate amount of energy to upgrade.
The magic from this enchanted scepter appears to influence the dungeon and making it more likely to generate grass and water. At its current level this trinket can make X% of the floors filled with water or grass, but doesn't affect enchantments or glyphs, cursed weapons or armor, or items that are created to solve hazard rooms.
While it appears like a normal newt's eye, this mystical item seems to affect your vision in ways other than just reducing your field view. This trinket, at its current level, increases the health gained by drinking potions of healing and wells of life by X% and grants mind sight on enemies within Y tile. This trinket cannot be combined with the Increased Senses.
After completing the Mastery Cave After completing the Mastery Cave, you will be able to find Trinkets by taking on Monsters and inside chests and crates in Skull Cavern. They can't be found in the Mines or Volcano Dungeon.
If you find a trinket that needs to be upgraded, place it in the Anvil to do so. This will cause an unpredictable impact on the trinket either increasing its duration or enhancing its effects. You can reorge the Trinket as many times as you want, though it will always have a different effect than the one you had when you first made it.
You can also upgrade your Trinkets at the Alchemy Station by placing them into a Magical Catalyst. This will cost you 6 energy and boost the trinket's power by just a little.
