Path of Exile Item Upgrading
The best way to upgrade your gear in Path of Exile is through upgrading your items. This lets you improve it without having to depend on costly drops or trades. This article will show you how to upp your gear effectively.
Upgrades to equipment grant an additional bonus to the item's stats. This bonus is based on the upgrade component's level and rarity.
Components
Upgrade components make your armour and weapons better. You can locate them by destroying enemies, purchasing them from karma vendors, or finding them in item-spheres. item upgrades can also get them from equipment that has the components, or by utilizing high-tier salvage kits such as Black Lion Salvage Kit and Ascended Salvage Tool. Upgrade components are not destroyed when you remove them from the item.
Upgrade components are typically used to improve an item but they can also be used for other reasons. They can be stacked to increase the quality of an item that can be upgraded or they can be used to increase the experience gained by upgrading an existing weapon or piece of equipment. They can also be forged to offer additional benefits. For example, a created glyph can increase the chance of upgrading its target, and an upgrade boost will enhance the defense or attack quality of a weapon or armor.
By selecting an upgrade template from the GUI will let you bind it to an item. This will display the upgrade components that the item can be upgraded. You can also make use of the workbench to choose an upgrade template. In either case, an item will be upgraded after enough upgrade components have been collected.
Each component is assigned an experience multiplier. This determines how much experience an item can gain when upgraded using that component. For instance, organic components give a higher experience multiplier than mechanical ones. It is recommended to upgrade organic components first until you reach the next rank in the weapon or equipment, and then move on to mechanical upgrades.
Each item has a maximum upgrade number that can be received. The number of upgrades is determined by its upgradeable rank and the type of upgrade available to the upgradeable item. For instance, the most expensive possible upgrade for a weapon is a weapon with tier 10. The most popular weapon upgrade is a gun of tier 6 and a armor upgrade of tier 5.
Sets
A set is a group of items which share the benefit of. Each item in the set can be upgraded at least once, and the upgrade will increase the amount of bonuses that are guaranteed. The first time you upgrade an item or set piece is that it will be given a +1 increase to its primary stat. In subsequent upgrades, the primary stats will be boosted a bit further (for example, +1 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 may be necessary for certain builds. Weapons aren't upgraded to give greater maximum defence rolls than their base. It is possible to increase value of specific sets and unique items by upgrading them, however they may not always be better than a Runeword with a high level.

If the item you're upgrading comes with a guaranteed bonus, it can be rerolled only once, and then its guarantee will be reset to 0. The same power dies are used to roll an item as it would be used to increase its level. However, the new item has different bonuses. The NPC [ArmorBoboko Boboko can upgrade your armor in Central Flarine. To upgrade an item you will require the required amount of Minerals and Erons and a power dice of each kind. item upgrader are available at the crafting table or in the Ultra Collector and can be purchased using Gold. The NPC will also give an extra reward for each completed tier of the upgrade process. This reward is rerollable once, and the reroll will use the same materials as the first item.
Rerolling
If a player has enough rerolling tokens, they can reroll any item that they've acquired during the game. If an upgraded item is being rerolled, it can be exchanged for an equivalent level 1 version of the same item from a different set. Reroll tokens can be purchased at the store for a small sum of in-game currency. They are non-refundable. The new item will offer the same bonuses as the previous one, but the stats will differ.
Players can change the identification of their equipment as well as rerolling it by interacting with an NPC upgrader. The equipment's identification will change from a weapon to an armor, or vice versa. The basic requirements and stats will remain the same. The change will be permanent and affect all characters who own the equipment.
Players can also boost the item level of any equipped equipment by obtaining upgrade components and interacting with the NPC who upgrades the item. The cost will differ based on the upgrade track, the item type and the number of crests. For weapons, each step up will add an additional 5percent to the damage.
Upgrades can boost the capability of an item, however they can also reduce its quality. Therefore, it is crucial to keep both in check. Some items may not be worth upgrading at all, while others will need to be upgraded in order to reach their potential. For example, a player might decide to upgrade a piece breakpoint armor that has an interesting modifier (% chance to block or FHR) to see what it can become.
The primary reason why people are able to reroll in Genshin Impact, or in any gacha-based game is that they're trying to obtain a particular character or weapon that they wouldn't otherwise be able to acquire. These items can be costly and time-consuming to acquire and the RNG doesn't always play nice. The only options left are to invest real money or grind for a long time. Rerolling is a very popular choice in Genshin Impact.
Leveling
You can choose whether to upgrade the weapon or armor when you upgrade an item. But, this feature does absolutely nothing in the current game. I think this feature was designed to increase the value of rare and expensive items. However, since the majority of items are replaced quite quickly, and can only be upgraded by one level, you will usually replace it before it is too old. It's also not worth it to level items that have gem sockets because the power of the gem will outweigh the higher ilvl that comes with the upgrade.
If you click on the upgrade option on an item, you will get a small screen with the upgrade template for the item and the cost of Valorstone and crest to increase the level of the item. Armor and weapons will have different prices, with the latter typically being more costly. The upgrade template outlines the statistics that will be added to the upgraded item. It will also list its current base ilvl.
The crest and Valorstone costs are calculated according to the item's current ilvl and the upgrade template. The ilvl will also be reduced by the upgrade template's reduction percentage of lvl. For instance weapons with an upgrade decrease of 8% will reduce its value by 8-8 percent.
The item will be upgraded to other stats, such as critical strike damage, PvE damages and block, parry and dodge rating, in addition to the base level. These upgrades are also based on the upgrade template.
The amount of defense and damage the item is able to receive when it is leveled can be seen below the cost and upgrade decrease percentages in the upgrade template window. Aside from equipment for practice, all items and armor get the same stats when they are upgraded. The market will determine the worth of these stats. A weapon or armor that has perfect rolls can command an incredibly higher price than an unupp'd version. The same applies to other pieces of armor such as tiaras and circlets.
