WoW Item Upgrades
More commonly referred to as "upping"--are enchantments and items that can be incorporated into armor and weapons to boost their effectiveness. These upgrade items increase the gauge of an item by a certain amount of points. Their cost increases depending on their rarity.
A perfectly made version of this armor is highly prized in the melee PvP community due to its ability to limit weapon damage.
Type-restricted upgrades
The upgrading process is a vital part of the crafting process. They can boost the stats of an item and make it stronger or weaker and even provide an added benefit. They can also change the appearance of an item. While certain upgrades are universal, others are governed by specific rules for armor or weapons. The wrong upgrade could ruin an item that is otherwise amazing, or even render it useless.
The general rule is that you should only upgrade a piece of equipment to the standard of the highest-level equipment in its class. This means that you are able to upgrade helms, body armors, shields and gloves to the level of their most elite counterparts. Weapons on the other hand can be upgraded to the level of a sword. However, this doesn't increase the weapon's damage output, but could decrease its value in trade.
To upgrade an item, you need to spend flightstones and crests. The amount of both depend on the level of the item and slot. For instance, an upgrade to a sword will cost more flightstones than upgrading a cloak or bracers. Also, you can get discounts on the amount of flightstones or crests required to upgrade an item.
The diamond-shaped indicator on the item is filled up when it is upgraded. Each step raises the item's Tier level by one-third. Tier 3 is the highest level. Based on the item it will take a different number of upgrades to get to this point. It is essential to note that any procedure that could be used to mount a disk shouldn't be running during an upgrade. You must also ensure that the disk you are upgrading is not being used as a system drive.
Enchantment lets you change white or Common items to rare or blue items. Eleanor's Enchantment Shop, located in the Capital District is where you can do it. This process does not add gem or rune slots to the equipment but it does change its size. It increases the equipment's size by two categories smaller. For instance, an armored Stormtrooper armor is Medium, and the Blaster Pistol Small.
Universal upgrades
Universal upgrades are upgrades that can be made on any kind of equipment. This includes armor, weapons and trinkets. The upgrade components are typically random, but they may also be obtained by completing Side Quests. Universal upgrades can be either temporary or permanent, and they can be combined with Power Ups. They can be linear or branching.
The Universal Upgrade is when "internal technologies" can give sentient animals new abilities that they are unlikely to acquire naturally. Examples of internal technology include prostheses or implants. This kind of technology is not the same as medical internal technology which seeks to restore the capabilities of nature. It is rather the beginning of an upgrade process that transforms civilizations in a fundamental way. The universal upgrade is a tense process that can take an extended time to complete. However Casesgg can be divided into two different categories: complete success and partial failure.
Similar to the way resort upgrades are implemented at Disney and Universal. In the case of WDW these upgrades are usually because of operational issues such as rooms being overbooked or not available. In the case of Universal this could mean to transfer guests from one resort to another that is open. This is not meant as an insult, but in the current climate it could be difficult to avoid.
Universal upgrades can be used on any kind of gear. In addition, they can be applied to multiple items at a time. This makes them more flexible than other types of upgrade. However, this flexibility could create problems when upgrading items within a specific gear path, because it can increase the level of each item in all the pieces within that path.
Prior to performing an upgrade, it's important to stop the PowerShell Universal service and delete the existing application files. After that you can install new files by using the GetChildItem-Recurse command or Unblock-File. To make sure that your PSU server is functioning properly you must also conduct a basic verification.
Jewels
Jewels are enhancements that can be added to weapons, armor and accessories. The gems and reagents used to create them give different stat bonuses and secondary effect. They can be found in Golden Chests, Rift Incursions as well as V Blood Carriers and other regular enemies, or can be bought by a Master Craftsman karma or gold. Jewels can also be made at a table for jewelry using 1 gem and 5 of the same type of chemical reagents to create a gem of a higher or lower tier; this process is identical to upgrading a gem using the use of a gemcrafting table.
Jewel tiers are based on the number of modifiers they possess, with higher-tier jewels having more modifiers than those of lower tier. The primary effect of a jewel is determined by the tier it's and the secondary effect is random and players can make use of luck potions to increase the probability of better secondary effects.
Jewels can also be added to items that have sockets that match, just like other upgrade components. A Garnet Jewel and a Garnet Stone both increase strength but a Garnet Jewel also boosts a player's strong attacks. Jewels can be put into every level of armor, weapon, and accessory slots, and certain trinkets that are lesser rarity or exotic which require a slot to be empty.
Like other DM mechanics, gems aid to ensure that items are special to their owners. By offering a variety of different upgrade options jewels let players modify their equipment and choose the right combination for their needs. They can also upgrade their existing gear with new jewels if the initial set of a certain kind isn't working anymore.
Requirements
WoW's item upgrades allow players to increase the levels of their equipment set pieces, weapons and trinkets beyond their current level of item from specific Mists of Pandaria and Warlords of Draenor sources. These upgrades boost the stats of the base item, and some even offer special effects (such as Dolphin's Grace which allows players to experience dolphin-like grace when they swim). These upgrades can be obtained at any upgrader NPC or by rescuing them from items containing them, with a variety of items dropping various upgrade components.
The process of upgrading may be a bit difficult, but it is straightforward. The player first selects the item he wants to upgrade, and then clicks on the Upgrade button. A window will appear with the different upgrades available for the item. This window will display the upgrade level, the type of upgrade bonus (such a Tech Points or a Quality Chance) and the cost of upgrading. The upgrade level will be displayed in a bar at the top of the screen and the upgrade type bonus is shown below it.
If the player decides to make an upgrade, the item will be brought to the upgrader NPC who will explain the procedure for upgrading the item. The player will then have to provide the appropriate currency to make the upgrade, and may be required to provide additional items if necessary. The requirements for this are determined by the item's level. Weapons are more stringent when opposed to armor.
In addition to the necessary upgrade components, many upgrade recipes come with an 'Acceptable Materials' list. This list outlines what other upgrade components can be used on the item, and includes an indication of whether the item has a guaranteed boost or other effect. This is important because the value of an upgrade may differ greatly based on its "extras. For instance the gear that is perfectly rolled can be worth much more than a non-upgraded model.
For upgrades that require crests or valorstones, they will be listed in a separate list beneath the main list. The crests and valorstones needed depend on the item level, with weapon upgrades requiring the most Valorstones.
