Path of Exile Item Upgrades The performance of a variety of Path of Exile items can be enhanced by upgrading them. They can also provide additional damage, AD or even affixes. Rare-grade equipment is often superior to the more modernized Common or Magic equipment because of their high requirements. Armor Armor upgrades are a kind of upgrade that can be used on weapon and armor items. They increase the performance of the item they are connected to. Armor upgrades are found in the world of the game and can be purchased from Blacksmiths at any bonfire. They can also be salvaged by using a specialist or higher salvage kits to retrieve upgrades from the items. The amount of damage a piece of armor or weapon is able to absorb is dependent on the degree of upgrades. The upgrade of an armor piece to the highest upgrade level will boost its ability to absorb damage. But, it's important to note that this will also increase its weight, which will cause it to weigh more than it was before. There are several kinds of armor upgrades available in the game, and they all have distinct effects. Some upgrades give armor a greater number of health points, while others make it stronger and lighter. The name of the upgrade will indicate the kind of upgrade an item can receive, as shown below. Some of the upgrades also require magic or a combination of technology and magic, which is indicated by the “Magic” and “Hybrids” entries in the table. Certain upgrades also require fees to use. These are indicated as “Charges” entries in the table. The charges for these upgrades are updated daily or never expire dependent on the upgrade. The cheapest method of upgrading armor is by using Iron Ore, which can be gathered by exploring the area and looting minor loot chests. Titanium is more expensive but can be found at the smelters in Orgrimmar and Stormwind City. Some upgrades, like the Reforge or the Hot Potato Books can only be applied to armor pieces that are of high-level. These upgrades can give significant improvement in stats and are a worthwhile investment, especially for 1-handed weapons. The player must be aware that upgrading a piece to the maximum upgrade level will increase its defense value. However, it will also decrease the speed and agility of the piece. It is not recommended to upgrade armor beyond +9. The added defense usually isn't worth the weight and power costs of the upgrades. Weapons Weapon upgrades allow players to enhance certain aspects of their weapon. Upgrades can increase the accuracy of a rifle or the damage that shotgun shells cause. Some weapons have special upgrades that enhance their inherent qualities. They include Frictionless Materials (improves stability and minimizes weapon overheating) and Kinetic Coils (increases projectile acceleration for more damage). The majority of upgrades for weapons require a whetblade, one of three Power Dices and a different amount of Minerals and Erons. These can be obtained by completing Side Quests or by killing a certain number of bosses and monsters. To upgrade an equipment set, weapon piece, or Whetblade You must go to the NPC [Armor] Boboko located in Central Flarine, and pay her an upgrade fee that is a certain amount of Bars. The more bars you need to complete an upgrade, the more advanced the level. If you have multiple upgrade materials the cost of upgrading will be less. In Chapter 2: Season 5, the way you upgrade your equipment and weapon sets changed a little. Before you could go to an Upgrade Bench and pay a set amount of Bars to upgrade your weapon or equipment to a higher level of rarity. You could do this until your weapon or equipment reached its maximum upgrade level at which point the upgrades would be reset. It's possible, but it depends heavily on RNG. You should consider buying equipment with minimal upgrade levels but with high base scores and stat distributions. These will then have a better chance of bringing you the most prestigious bonuses and blessings. Most players will want to prioritize upgrades to the weapons they are most likely to use to make sure they are able to level up faster. In addition players, they should think about upgrading the weapons that are most popular with their teammates to make them more powerful and effective. For instance, Shepard should consider upgrading the M92F to unlock the Beretta M93R, which will make it more useful when paired with experts in biotics like Grunt and Tali. Jewels Jewels are used in the sockets of armor and weapons, increasing the stats of a weapon and providing additional effects. Jewelry crafting is the process of making them, in which you combine a gemstone with a number specific reagents in a jewelry table. The higher the grade of the jewel is, the greater its secondary effect. These reagents are available from Treasure Goblins and World Bosses around the world, or by collecting Legendary Gear. You can also buy them from The Jeweler for gold and a Scattered Prism. The Jeweler can improve the quality of gemstones in stages ranging from Crude up to Royal. Based on the tier of the gem it can provide different stat boosts when it is inserted into gear, weapons and jewelry. The Jeweler can craft all tiers of gems, except for the rare and legendary ones, which you must be at an appropriate level to obtain. Jewels can be substituted with another one without damaging the original. You can only replace the gem only once in a piece of equipment. Using more jewels in a movement can make it feel more comfortable and is usually used to enhance the aesthetics of the movement. In addition to improving performance, the jewels create a surface that is harder than metal, so repeated friction from pivots doesn't damage them as easily. A Glyphmaster can provide glyphs to enhance the look of your shields and weapons. These glyphs offer a small boost and can be traded, but they're not guaranteed to appear as loot. Glyphs can be upgraded like jewelry, at the Jeweler for gold, and also scattered Crystal. Glyphs can also be removed, which returns them to the inventory. Other upgrade components, like aegis and traits, aren't swappable and can only be recovered using an Upgrade Extractor, or by salvaging them using the Black Lion Salvage Kit or an Ascended Salvage Tool. Trinkets Trinkets are pieces of equipment that offer an array of small but useful benefits to your hero. You can find them in the starting area as loot or personal story rewards. They are also available from vendors as well as through doing road interaction. They can also be found on the Trading Post, or crafted by jewelers. The first trinkets a player is able to unlock is the cloak, which grants an unimportant but beneficial boost in speed of movement and the ability to escape. The player can then acquire necklaces, rings, and amulets in a similar manner similar to how they obtained weapons and armor. Each piece of equipment comes with one upgrade slot that accepts either a universal upgrade or a jewel upgrade. Universal upgrades offer fewer benefits and can be placed in any type of equipment, while jewelry cannot be changed or upgraded, and only works with certain kinds of trinkets. These trinkets can also grant buffs and skills that remain active even when the character is not fighting. This allows a hero to be more efficient while inactive. It can also compensate for the lack of a excellent slot in the talent tree or team which are usually filled by a hero's top stats. A good rule of thumb for trinket upgrades is to prioritize BiS (Best-in-Slot) items that you aren't planning to replace soon, followed by items with desirable stats but less important than the iLevel of the item to be upgraded. This is true especially if you are looking to upgrade multiple statistics on an item. It is more beneficial to upgrade a single important stat rather than two suboptimal ones. Jungle players often upgrade their yellow trinkets to a red one at the beginning of the game. Mid and top players on the other hand, will choose either a pink or green ward, based on the game's matchup. These choices will have a major impact on the hero's ability to control his map. In addition to the items mentioned above, players will also find other trinkets that form of trophies and rewards throughout the game. These can be obtained by completing certain milestones in the story. For item upgrade Cases.gg , finishing a chapter’s main quest or defeating the boss. You can check them out by selecting the achievement from the reward section of the hero's menu.
