WoW Upgrades - The Item Upgrader

Upgrades will give you a boost in specific stats. Each upgrade increases item upgrader kit level by 3. Each upgrade also boosts the random substatus.

Upgraded gear is generally more useful, unless the item is not required by nature (like FB sorc shields) or has a large variance in stats (like the eth Titan weapons). Upgrades are less important for those with lower requirements due to the requirement to roll the perfect version.

Recycle Points

The item upgrader allows players to upgrade their gear by giving the currency to an NPC. Upgrades can be applied to any kind of weapon or armor. However, the item used to upgrade will remain in use for a long time and can't be used again. Upgrades can be applied to enchantments.

You can upgrade your gear at any time by visiting the upgrader in any major city. To keep your gear up-to-date it is recommended that you visit the upgrader each several weeks.

Upgrades will cost more depending on the level of the item, but they will always be less expensive than purchasing new equipment. Upgrades such as upgrading a Benthic chest to 385 ilvl will cost you 20 recycle points. A similar item will cost you 105.

Valorstones

Upgrades are items that can be used to purchase weapons, armor, tools and accessory upgrades. Players can purchase them from NPCs of item upgraders for a variety of currencies. They are also available on random treasure lists. Once an upgrade is purchased, it can be applied to any weapon, tool, or armor with a The button will show a preview of an item Level upgrade's next upgrade level if there are enough materials.

The cost of upgrading varies based on the slot of the item upgrader mod and the current item level. For example weapons are more expensive than bracers, or gloves. Each upgrade cost 15 Flightstones and a number of crests, with some upgrades having a discount to lower the cost of Flightstones or crests used. Once an item is upgraded to a certain amount it is able to be downgraded and sold to the upgrader at a lower price.

A lot of locations offer upgraders for items, including the main Island and a few outposts. The NPCs offer an upgrade coupon as well as the possibility of obtaining the latest recipe. The upgrade discount increases when more items are upgraded. It can also be increased by having players finish certain achievements or quests.

Unlike Cromwell in Baldur's Gate II, there is no upgrader for items at the beginning of Icewind Dale. The NPCs that can assist with upgrades are available only via a variety of ways. This is both a benefit and a drawback.

In Season 3, the upgrade system has been tweaked a bit, with several new features added. Once a player obtains an upgrade items to a particular level for an item in an armor slot, upgrading further items to that level will cost less, even when they are part of a different gear set.

The amount of Valorstones needed for upgrades is decreased, and the discount is available across all accounts. The amount of Harbinger Crests needed to upgrade is reduced as well, but is only available when certain milestones are reached.

Crests

Players have several choices when it comes to upgrading their gear in WoW. Flightstones are an option that is accessible to everyone who wants to upgrade. Crests are more specific and are used for specific item level upgrades. Crests are an integral component of the Dragonflight Gear Progression System introduced in version 10.1. They are available in four ranks.

First, you must be aware that the crests can only be purchased for equipment with a certain rank. Each rank has an upgrade path that is different. The simplest and simplest upgrade costs 15 crests. The most complicated upgrade can require up to 20 crests, based on the kind of gear that is being upgraded.

Players can earn crests by finishing content at the appropriate level, whether that involves walking around and engaging in outdoor activities for gear of lower tiers, dungeons or raids of any difficulty for higher-tier items or Mythic+ heroic raid bosses and dungeons to obtain endgame gear. These crests can then be exchanged at an item upgrading upgrader NPC, such as Cuzolth in Dornogal or Vaskarn in Valdrakken to get the appropriate upgrade pathways and steps.

The new currency system isn't complicated to use, but it brings some modifications to the upgrade process. For instance, when a piece of equipment reaches the highest upgrade level of any rank (Explorer, Adventurer, Veteran, Champion, Hero, or Mythic), it won't need Flightstones to be upgraded. This change is intended to allow players to upgrade their equipment up to the highest level possible on all their characters, rather than relying solely on seasonal loot.

It's also crucial to choose crests with care, since they are only used for one purpose. For instance, it's a good idea to use all of your Whelpling-rank crests on the best gear you have available, and then save Drake and Wyrm crests for the next round of upgrades you plan on making. This is especially relevant for rings and trinkets that fill multiple slots on the character which will only be able to benefit from the account-wide discount when all slots are full of high-quality equipment.
