World of Warcraft – Item Upgrading Item upgrading allows players to increase the gear score of an item up to 700 and add an additional perk. Items can be upgraded if they're in your inventory and you decide to take them to the kiln. Certain items are worth upgrading because of their unique stats. (For example an excellently rolled breakpoint armor used in melee PvP). Other items like weapons don't change much after an upgrade, and aren't worth it. Weapons Upgrades to weapons can increase their numerical stats, such as attack damage, crit chance, and PvE/PvP damage. Weapons have a flat-rate bonus that increases damage per second. Additionally some weapons come with a set bonus that activates when three or more of the same weapon are present on a single unit. In some cases this bonus could amount to more than the amount of damage a weapon is able to upgrade by itself. A weapon's upgrade costs depend on the nature of the weapon as well as its current level. For instance, a +2 weapon will require two regular Smithing Stones to upgrade while the +3 model requires four. The number of stones needed to upgrade a weapon will increase until it requires an upgrade to a higher level of Smithing Stones. At item upgrades will reset to one. Upgraded weapons can also alter their base stats. While this is usually an excellent thing but it can also have negative consequences too. For items that only see use in a particular build (Whistant's shield for FB sorcs, for instance) upgrading them could render them unusable unless you happen to have an extremely lucky roll. Items of armor can also be upgraded to increase their performance. This will increase the defense base of a helm or chest, while belts and gloves will increase their required strength and agility. Armor has a rerolling feature for its Enhanced Defense%. This means that it may roll down to a lower value. The upgrade template for a weapon shows the new stats it will get when upgraded in addition to their respective values. This means that a change from an 8 attack-damage sword to an 11-attack-damage sword will result in a weapon receiving 33% attack damage. However the 3% difference doesn't mean that it will hit for 3 times less often because it's an absolute number. A weapon can also be rerolled using the green button, which is accompanied by circular arrows within the menu for items. This will reroll an item and change its statistics, but it will not reset the weapon's levels or tie it to the account status. Armor Adding a few upgrades to your armor can make an enormous difference in your ability to survive. Certain sets offer massive increases in poison or curse, fire, and magic resistance, which can make the journey through difficult terrain a breeze. In general, the more defense you can offer your character, the more health you can gain from each point. Therefore, it's a good idea to upgrade your armor. You can upgrade your armor by visiting any of the Great Fairy Fountains. There are four of them each of which requires you to complete a specific side-quest involving the Stable Trotters musical troupe. After you've completed your main quest, and the corresponding fountains, you can talk to any Great Fairy in order to unlock the menu for upgrading armor. Each piece of armor can be upgraded up to three levels, and the amount of material and Rupees needed for each will vary. In general, you'll be looking at anything from three to ten 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 example the Champion Leathers can be upgraded to +5 defense, allowing you to keep up with a large group of enemies in the majority of cold climates, and the Snowquill Headdress can be upgraded up to +20 defense, giving you enough protection to withstand a full on raid with a handful of friends. Be aware that armor can't be upgraded in the same way as weapons, so you'll have to focus on enhancing it to increase physical power if you're Warrior or Spell Power in the case of Mage. It's also worthwhile to save your armor upgrades for the 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 for the final boss battle 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. You'll generally want to save these upgrades for the weapon that you'll use to win the game. For example the Longsword or Battleaxe. However, it's beneficial to have a few upgrades to the helmets and chest armor to let you get around a few monsters. Potions Potions are liquids that, when consumed by the player, give the player with a temporary effect. There are five types of potions that have different effects and durations. Some potions can be upgraded, increasing the effectiveness of their effects. Additionally, the effects of some potions can be enhanced by adding redstone or glowstone dust to them. Upgrades to your potion require a specific amount XP. This can be obtained through crafting them on a craft table, or by storing them in the Alchemist chest. The price of upgrades varies based on the type of potion as well as the item's Rarity and Mark Level. To upgrade a potion, right-click on it in your inventory and select the “Upgrade” option from the menu. This will open an GUI which allows you to choose the potion that you want to upgrade and the amount of experience they'll provide when upgraded. Upgrades to potions can be made in batches of up to five at a single time, and the XP they earn will be added to your current XP total. Once a poton is upgraded in quality, it will not deteriorate until you take it out again or break the bottle within the container it is kept. You can also rename the potion by clicking it in your inventory. There were a few updates to the mechanics of potion in version 1.7.2. For instance, splash potions now have a duration of 0.08 seconds (this is not the equivalent of 22.5 seconds shown on the hover display of the item). The potion table is constructed from four Wood Planks, and two Glass. It can be used in both Survival and Bedrock. Bedrock Edition potions are not compatible with cauldrons like Java Edition. The same applies to using a potion in the cauldron that is filled. This will draw out the potion and refill the bottle. Lastly, there are now lingering potions, which are made with splash and dragon breath potions. In the same way, a lingering potion effect can be extended by adding redstone. The table of potions is organized more closely to the Java Edition, and new potions were added such as the potion of leaping, the decomposition potion, as well as turtle master potions. Trinkets A trinket can be an ornament that is small and inexpensive or piece of jewelry. It could be a reference to a piece of art or a decoration that serves a purpose, but isn't particularly significant, such as a thimble. In some cultures, a trinket is used to signify affection or friendship, particularly between family members. Trinkets can be upgraded by players as well as weapons and armor, as well as potions. They can be upgraded by visiting an upgrade vendor and paying the appropriate amount in currency. As with other upgrades to items, trinkets can be swapped out at will without losing their status. The upgrade vendors are found in major cities and in the capital of each zone, and in in dungeons. Upgrades for trinkets can be purchased with gold, tokens, or fragments from trinkets that are rare. Upgrades are a cost-effective alternative to purchasing a new trinket. It can be done by a player for as little as 12 tokens. The new trinket will have the same base level as the old trinket, but will also have an additional 1% bonus upgrade. Trinkets can be re-upgraded once they're no longer useful and allows players to boost their power and value over time. They can also be traded between players and are a popular alternative to gold. In general players should upgrade their top-priority items first. This typically means the top-of-the-line items for their class, then their secondaries, and finally other gear items that they won't replace soon (for instance rings or cloaks). When deciding on the items to upgrade, players should also take into account the preferred statistics of their class. If Haste and Crit are two of the most important stats for tank players then they should consider upgrading their helm, chest and shoulders. Once they have become useless trinkets can be upgraded to a greater level. The new trinket comes with an additional 1percent bonus. A re-upgrade, however, can cause damage to the trinket unless it is saved using the Black Lion Salvage Kit, or a higher tier salvage tool. Upgrades to trinkets can be more expensive than other upgrades, but still less expensive than buying an entirely new trinket.
