World of Warcraft Item Upgrades

Upgrades to items can be used to boost the stats of a particular item. Depending on the type of upgrade you choose, it can boost the rarity of an item, or its Mark Level and increase other stats.

Upgrading equipment in The War Within requires a certain number of Flightstones and Crests and each item has an upgrade track. Each upgrade increases the cost of the next one by a specific amount.

Item Level

When an item gets upgraded, its stats improve in value. This value is the sum of all of an item's leveled-up perks (attack magic attack and defense). The cost of upgrading items can be high, depending on the upgrader and the kind of upgrade you decide to do. This is due to the number of perks that need to be altered to upgrade an item.

It is also used to enforce gating requirements when queueing for raids, dungeons and scenarios. It also serves to determine a gating condition when queueing for dungeons, scenarios, and raids, as well as to limit the amount of PvP gear a player can wear (since PvP is restricted to a lower level). Players can view their average level of item on their character sheet.

When deciding whether to purchase or sell gear players can evaluate the level of an item. It's a sign of the item's condition and its quality. The level of an item upgrader kit can be used to evaluate items when looking at the inventory of a vendor.

On PC, you are able to see the level of the item upgrader mod by pressing ALT or using the left stick on XB1 or PS4. This will show the full item description, including its value. It is also accessible by hovering over an item with the mouse cursor, and then entering /itemlevel into chat.

There are a few theories about how the item upgrader kit level calculation is done. One theory suggests that the item level is determined by a formula that calculates how valuable the stats of an item really are. It considers that different advantages are valued differently and that gems found in sockets increase the item's value. This can result in a calculated amount for the item's level, which is usually quite close to Blizzard's real item level upgrade level.

It's not the only thing that affects the ilvl of an item. The degree of the area in which the item was dropped may alter its stats. For instance it can increase the Best item upgrader's haste or crit score. Items that drop in higher-level instances will have higher ilvl.

Item Stats

The stats of an item can determine the fate of an item for players. The game uses them in a variety of ways to encourage players not to limit themselves to one weapon, and to encourage players to explore other weapons. The stat modifications of an weapon increase the base stats. These stat mods are then enhanced by the player's level.

Item upgrades add to that by increasing certain stats of the item. The rarity of an item determines the cost of upgrading. A white or grey item for instance, will only be upgraded one time however, items with rare tiers may be upgraded several times at more expensive costs.

Another method to alter the stats on an item is by affixing it. These are special stat boosts that can be added to an item by the player and are available in all sizes and shapes. The affixes can do things like give the item additional damage, or give a specific ability to the item (such as reviving the dead or cutting down the duration of cooldowns), or make the item unique by giving a special name to the item.

All affixes can be re-rolled at the moment by selecting them in the upgrade window, pressing the green button. This process will cost the player a specific amount of gold as well as items which can be added to the upgrade gauge in the same manner as other options for rerolling.

Players can choose to upgrade an item by a specific stat or reroll affixes. The possible stat ranges of an item are based on the level of the item, but all items are guaranteed to have at least 1 stat within the specified range, unless it is a unique item or a God roll from a raid boss.

This is another thing that can be modified by adding the option to upgrade the equipment without having to reroll the affixes or deciding which stats to boost. However, as with the base equipment, this would have to be done on a per-item basis and the item compare interface wouldn't show all possible stats gained or lost at once.

Item Luck

The Luck stat of a player increases the probability of obtaining items and the properties that are spawned by loot and the intensity of these properties. However, it does not directly affect damage or the ability to upgrade items. It gives players an opportunity to get better gear earlier in the game. This is more useful for early game runs, because players tend to put the scaling of weapons and defenses over raw damage gains.

Luck can also increase the chances of upgrading items at the Blacksmith. This isn't to be confused with the Blacksmith's overall chances of upgrading, which increase with each new level of item. These can also be enhanced by using anti-materials, such as a Scroll of Strength and a Jewel of Blessing.

The shields, armor, and weapons have the default Luck value of 40. These items can be improved with golden ingots, or spined leather (depending on the material they are made of) to increase the value of 40 luck, or to increase an item's existing Luck up to 140.

Certain items, like the weapon that is infused with hollow can also be outfitted to increase the damage dealt by any skill that is able to deal damage by 5percent. These items can be found in the shop or crafted using the right ingredients.

Item Failure

Upgrades to items can be a costly process and not every upgrade will be successful. Cash shop items can be used to boost the success rate of an upgrade, or to protect players from losing their item in the event that it is not successful.

The rate of success of an upgrade is displayed in the Honing UI. The percentage represents the likelihood of successful upgrading an item. This can be increased with Additional Materials or Special Materials. There are limitations to how much success rates can be increased and the chance of a failed upgrade cannot exceed 100%..

The luck of an item can also influence the effectiveness of an upgrade. Each item has a success rate of 25 percent, and each item with Luck increases the chance of success by five percent.

It is important to note that upgrade items are rendered above the items in the inventory which means that enchantment glints and other effects can be masked by them. If you wish to disable the upgrade overlays, the config option decoration.renderUpgradeOverlays can be set to False in the item upgrader (Going in Ressourcerie) CORE client config.
