World of Warcraft Item Upgrades
The feature of upgrading items allows players to upgrade their equipment. This can be done at any item upgrade r NPC.
Generally upgrades increase an items main stat and give it extras depending on the item type. Examples include Whistan's shield for FB sorcs, or Goldwrap for build casters.
Armour
Armour is one of the most important factors that keep Link safe from harm in most situations. While it isn't able to be upgraded like weapons, it is possible to improve its defence capabilities in various ways.
Armour is designed to shield animals or people from harm or injury regardless of whether it's a direct physical attack or a variety of activity or environmental hazards. In the past, armour was primarily constructed from leather or fabric however later, metal protections were also utilized particularly in military applications such as heavy cavalry or combat drones.
There are a variety of ways to upgrade armour, however, the majority require you to visit one of four Great Fairy Fountains scattered throughout Hyrule. Each fountain comes with its own level of upgrades available and more will provide higher levels of protection, but needing a higher amount of rupees and other materials to unlock.
First, Armor Upgrades are permanent upgrades. Once they've been put in place, they can't be removed in the event that you own a piece of gear with the same upgrade. It is essential to only apply the highest level of upgrades to your gear and that you have enough of the required materials to complete them.
You will find the upgrades you require in a variety places throughout Hyrule. These include merchants, shrines and even enemies. They'll usually be identified with an gold circle or blue triangle symbol and are available in large quantities as you move through the game. They can appear randomly, however there is a chance that getting certain upgrades will trigger a quest which will reward you with more.
It's important to keep in mind that even though the amount provided by each upgrade may vary but it will always be greater than nothing. A complete set of upgraded armor will give you a strong defense boost that can protect you from all kinds of attacks and will also protect against magic. This makes it an effective weapon for any class.
Weapons
You can upgrade your guns by using special upgrades that create a truly unique weapon. These can increase damage, change the weapon's stats to cater to your particular build and even unlock new attachments such as unique enchantments, ammo types, and aesthetic options.
You'll require both the upgrade component and the weapon itself to upgrade it. The weapon should also be above a certain level for the upgrade to be effective and most weapons can only accept one upgrade at one time.
Weapon upgrade components are available all over the world, from a variety of sources, including merchants or enemies. Upgrade components are made up of components that you can put into weapons, armors, trinkets and gathering tools to earn an attribute bonus. The equipment must be at a certain level to accept the upgrade. It is able to be upgraded in the same way as other items.
Upgrades are a mixture of Smithing Stones (a type of stone) and Runes. They can be used to boost the effectiveness of weapons and improve their ability to scale with other stats. They can be obtained from enemies that are dropped into the open, bought from certain merchants or as drops in combat.
There are two NPCs who can upgrade your weapons: Blacksmith Hewg in the Roundtable Hold hub area and the Smithing Master Iji in the Road to the Manor hub area. Both of these NPCs will take your Smithing Stones and Runes in exchange for a higher-level version of the weapon as well as an upgrade.
Prioritize upgrading your best-in slot items first. Then upgrade the ones you aren't likely to replace anytime soon. If you're planning on playing in a melee-based build, for instance, upgrade your weapon, then your chest and shoulders before your hands and feet. The same principle goes for Magic and Utility Items, with the caveat that certain procs may be better than others, based on your style of play. Similar is the case for Armour and reforges, with some having superior performance over others.
Magic Items
A character can only upgrade one item of magic at a time. If an upgrade project is canceled then any subsequent upgrades for that item will not begin. Upgraded magic items cost twice as much gold to create or purchase, but they can provide additional benefits.
A magical item can be any item with special properties or effects. These are usually weapons, but they could also be armors, shields, cloaks and potions. They can also be rings, scrolls, or other items. Some of these items have a sense of being.
Most magical items can be upgraded to become enhanced with new abilities. This can make them more useful to a player or help them overcome a difficult encounter. An infused weapon might provide bonus damage against a particular type of enemy, for instance. This is particularly useful for characters who have reached a level where they are likely to face a single type of monster in Dungeons.
A ring with an infusion could grant immunity to bludgeoning, piercing or slashing injuries from nonmagical attacks (not including silvered ones) until the next time the character is taking a long rest. This is especially useful for combatants who are melee or any person who wishes to avoid buying an armor.
Certain objects with enchanted properties have special powers that allow the character to cast spells that aren't on their list of classes. This is a great benefit for characters who have difficulties keeping their spell slots full because of multiclassing. These enchanted objects require an Intelligence check (Arcana), and the spell is determined by rolling a table that is based on the amount of Intelligence points spent.
Other enchanted items might let the user change their appearance, or even create a completely new appearance. These are particularly beneficial for those who have had to leave their home, or are in a location where they might not be welcome. A magical item may grant them invisibility or make them invisible to anyone, excluding the person they choose to.
Utility Items
Utility items are products that do not fall under the categories of Armor, Clothing or Weapons and have a range of different capabilities. Utility items are not compatible with each other, as opposed to Armor or Weapons. Most utility items have a passive effect that the player can activate when using them. However, some have additional abilities that are activated by pressing a button or triggering an ability.
The Flashlight is the most commonly used accessory. It illuminates the area around it. Other utility items include the Helicopter Cap and Rocket Boots which allow the player float in mid-air while moving, and the Jetpack which allows the player to accelerate in all directions while on the ground. In the Engineering section, you can create instantly a variety of useful items, while others are unlocked by Research projects or experimental projects on the Proving Ground.
Players can unlock more powerful utility items in addition to those available in their regular inventory by purchasing them from the Atomic Shop or from seasonal Scoreboard rewards. Some of these items can be upgraded for more effective use.
Most utility items increase an individual combat ability or give the player some kind of advantage when it comes to navigation. Sharpening stones, crafted by an Weaponsmith, increase Power and Ferocity, while Maintenance Oils, created by a Huntsman will increase concentration and healing power. Other utility items can be utilized by players to boost Damage or Condition Damage.
All XCOM soldiers can equip a utilitarian item at the start of the campaign, and an additional slot can be obtained by equipping certain types of armor or completing engineering, research or experimental projects in the Proving Ground. During the Alien Hunters downloadable content, additional slots are available by equipping a Grenade Launcher. This allows players to utilize the Smoke Grenade or Bomb while an offensive grenade is kept in the main slot.
