World of Warcraft – Item Upgrade The feature of upgrading items allows players to boost the item level of equippable weapons or armor. This boosts the stats of the item and sometimes adds buffs or rerolls on an attach. It is important to remember that upgrading your magic and common gear is not always worth it. Rare and Unique equipment will quickly surpass the standard gear and upgraded magic. Cost When a player decides to upgrade an item, they must spend Gold to upgrade the item. The cost of upgrading an item is contingent on its current level and the upgrade type selected. For example, upgrading a weapon will generally be less expensive than upgrading armor because weapons require lower levels of skill. The amount of Gold required for upgrading increases when the item is upgraded to a higher level. Upgraded items also come with upgraded stats that will improve its performance in different ways. This can include increasing its attack power or critical strike chance. The upgraded item can also provide additional buffs to the unit it is equipped with. These upgrades are able to boost the overall strength of a group or unit, and could significantly impact the gameplay. Items can be upgraded at any item upgrader NPC in the game. These NPCs are located in major questing areas, or capital cities. Players can also find item upgraders in dungeons that have high-level bosses and by chatting with NPCs in their faction's garrisons. The World of Warcraft item upgrade system lets players upgrade the level of weapons, armor and trinkets. This process is largely identical to that of gear reforging in Mists of Pandaria and Warlords of Draenor, but instead of using the currency that is appropriate players need to visit an NPC for upgrading items to complete the process. Upgrades can be expensive particularly for weapons and armor. Based on the upgrade track you choose, each item level increase can cost Valorstones or Crests. The total costs can be prohibitive for players who do not have the resources or aren't willing to grind them. The game allows players to reroll a upgraded item with a special tool in the items menu. This option allows you to exchange the upgraded item for a level 1 version that has an additional set of bonus effects. Resource is useful for obtaining better rolls on items that are already upgraded, but can be a waste of money. Requirements Upgrading is the process of increasing the level of the items that are equippable like armor, weapons and trinkets. This increases their power and makes them more effective in battle.

Early upgrades increase the stats of the item's base level. Later upgrades provide more significant increases. Upgrades from level 3 to 6 will boost the weapon's damage by two levels. Additionally the upgraded item will receive a bonus stat, which is based on the tier it's in. The bonus consists of a guaranteed substat and an undetermined stat that can vary from upgrade to upgrade. Reroll Tokens can be used to reroll an item that has been upgraded. The new item has a different set of extra bonuses, and is of a lower level for the item. The rerolled item will also have different requirements for strength and dexterity. It is important to note that the rerolled item does not have its original level or any of its wasted resource. Rerolling some upgraded items is only possible if the item that was upgraded was an Epic, Rare, or Unique. Some exceptional items are also suitable for rerolling, however their original stats will be replaced by a flat bonus. This means that rerolling a Rare item will result in a Normal version of the same type, while rerolling an Epic item will result in an elite version of the same type. Upgraded items can come with additional modifications that can enhance their performance and increase their stats. These additional modifiers aren't included in the upgrade price. They can be acquired by the questing process, purchasing them from the Trading Post or from other players. They can also be earned by doing specific missions within the game.

The additional substat is randomly assigned and may range from a tiny increase in one statistic to a much greater increase in another. It is best to concentrate on the most effective items in the slot first, since they will give you a bigger return on your investment.

In some cases you may be able speed the process of upgrading by using a Glyph. Black Lion Salvage or Ascended Salvage sell a top-quality salvage kit which allows you to retrieve all or part of the upgrade components. However, this doesn't include legendary equipment or upgrades that can only be recovered by using an Upgrade Extractor, or by recovering them through the appropriate karma merchant. Take advantage of the benefits Item upgrading rewards players with a range of items and currency. Each upgrade also has the chance to award an unspecified stat bonus. The amount of bonus awarded will vary for each upgrade, and it's usually higher for rarer items. The Great Vault can be searched by players to determine whether an item can be upgraded. The search can help determine whether the item is in a certain class and whether the player will benefit from a particular upgrade. During the upgrade, an item will slowly grow closer to the next level, but not always reach its full upgrade bar. This process consumes Growthstones and Sollant, but there is a ten percent chance to obtain an item that is fully upgraded in just one cycle of growth. The more levels an item receives, the greater its stat boost and the more items it can upgrade to. Upgrade components can be inserted into trinkets, armor, and weapons to give an attribute bonus or a special effect, when the equipment is worn. Certain upgrade components come with cosmetic effects. Upgrade components can be acquired through crafting, purchasing from vendors or the Trading Post, looting or receiving them as gifts.

Recycled items will not keep their status, nor will the resources used to upgrade them. An item's maximum upgrade level is determined by its tier and quality. Rare and Epic items can be upgraded to levels up to nine, while common items can only be upgraded up to level six. The upgrades to items are added to its base statistics. This means that they won't grow further after a certain level.
