Guild Wars 2 Item Upgrade The stats of an item can be improved through upgrading it, also known as “upping”. Each upgrade increment provides an increase in the linearity of any stat. Players can recycle up to six items at once to gain an indicator of the level of the upgraded components. The cost of recycling an item increases depending on its rarity and. Upgrade components In Guild Wars 2, an upgrade of an item can be a method to increase the stats on your weapon and armor. This can be accomplished by a variety of methods, including by using upgrade components or increasing the rarity or mark level. Many items can also be reforged to increase their value. You can purchase upgradeable items throughout the game. They are available in all over the world and are rewards for missions. Players can also make them. Upgrade components are the primary method to upgrade equipment. These are items that slot into equipment. Most equipment has upgrade slots, and most require a certain upgrade level. Some upgrade components offer specific bonuses, while other components offer general bonuses. There are a variety of upgrade components that are available in the game. These include universal upgrades, inscriptions and jewels. Universal upgrades, like gemstones and enchantments, can be placed in any equipment type and provide smaller bonuses than those that are equipment-type specific to the type of equipment. Glyphs can be placed in gathering tools, and provide various bonuses, ranging from increasing the speed of an item's gathering to providing extra crafting materials. Choose the item from your inventory, and then open the Upgrade window. The preview will be displayed on the right-hand side of the screen. It will display the expected stats after the upgrade. If you don't have enough of either the upgrade button will show as Blocked. The upper-right corner displays the number of upgrade components needed for the specific item. The cost of upgrading increases as the level and rarity of the item. However you can lower the cost by purchasing upgrades from a seller, or trading them with other players. Most weapons can be improved with a prefix, such as a rune or an insignia. Some can be improved by adding a suffix. These upgrades add an adjective to the item's name like “Radiant” or “Minor Vigor”. Glyphs Glyphs can be used to convey visual information. They are animated to grab the attention of the viewers and trigger curiosity in the brain. The animation of glyphs mimics body language, which makes them more effective at conveying the message across linguistic barriers. Glyphs also improve the retention of messages by creating an emotional connection in the brain. Each glyph has a range of values it can improve a stat by according to the item when you open the glyph in the Glyph Storage or when you use it to enchant an Artifact. This is not the actual amount by which the glyph will increase the stat, but rather the maximum amount by which it is able to do so. The actual value of the glyph is determined by the quality and tier of the item you're enchanting it to. Most upgrade components inserted into items cannot be repaired or replaced without removing the gear in question, with the exception of legendary equipment and upgrades. If, however, you have an unusable rune or glyph that hasn't yet been incorporated into your equipment, you can transfer it to a different piece equipment by utilizing the upgrade Glyphs context menu within the Glyphs panel. This will create a Glyph Set that includes the selected glyph. If you want to remove a glyph from a piece of you must salvage it with a Black Lion Salvage Kit or Ascended Salvage Tool. The item where the glyph is installed will be destroyed, however the upgraded item can be retrieved by removing the glyph fragments. The addition of a glyph to an item can cause it to become unstable, and the shards of the glyph will disappear from your inventory once you dismantle the item. You can also place a glyph on your equipment to increase its value. Deferred Damage, for example, can store damage and be distributed slowly to the wearer instead of all at once. This is helpful for players who take lots of damage from their enemies but do not want to be overwhelmed. Reroll tokens Reroll tokens permit players to alter the affixes they use on their weapons and equipment and they can be obtained in various ways such as in mistery boxes or as an uncommon drop from skulled creatures, or even from killing bosses. Each reroll gives the player a random affix that is usually better than what they had before. Reroll tokens can be used to boost weapon stats to cause more damage or bonuses. Items that have been rerolled may not appear in the item upgrade menu, however, they still qualify to receive upgrades. These rerolled items can be recycled by pressing the “upgrade” button, which changes the layout of the item window and allows up to six items to recycle. The level gauge is increased by recycling an item. The amount is determined by the rarity of the item as well as its level. Therefore, higher-leveled items are more valuable for recycling than items with lower levels. Players can also make use of Reroll Tokens and Star Remnants to reroll weapons to upgrade units. Rerolls are based on a % chance of a weapon's traits. If it scores higher, the weapon is upgraded. If it rolls lower the weapon remains as is. Weapons can be rerolled up to three times. Rerolls are a great option for upgrading an item, however, players should be aware that it could reduce the total ilvl of the weapon based on the number of rerolls required to increase it to the final level. This effect is most noticeable on rings and Diadems, as they have no other options to increase the ilvl. The Reroll system has been criticized by players for being too expensive and it's more equitable to let players pay for it with money or a food item that allows them to change their builds without a lot of time and effort. The developers do not plan to implement paid rerolls at this stage in the game's development. They are planning to add the ability for players to change their race in the near future. Leveling There are many ways to upgrade an item. The first way to level up an item upgrade is to increase the amount of upgrade. This increases the upgrade value for the stat. The second is to boost the effect of an upgrade, which increases the healing or damage of a particular stat. In item upgrades , there is the ability to upgrade the base item to a higher upgrade type. The upgraded item will keep its iLevel but be upgraded to reflect the effects of the upgraded item. When you upgrade items, it is important to remember that upgrades aren't always planned. In the majority of cases, a better roll will come from the glyphs, but there are also possibilities for higher or more special rolls. In addition the iLevel of an upgrade will be determined by the item type which means that should you upgrade a unique or rare item to a unique type it will have a chance to achieve an increased iLevel. Upgrading items can be costly especially if you're upgrading a piece of equipment from the standard to legendary track. The cost of upgrading an item will be contingent on the base iLevel and the amount of upgrade levels. Certain upgrade tracks require crests in order to get to the next level. If you're fortunate, your upgraded item may reach the maximum level on its upgrade track and unlock an additional benefit. This will give the item a significant upgrade value. The bonus effect changes with each upgrade level. In general, the effect of upgrading is increased by +3. Depending on the item's level of base and upgrade path, the iLevel of the upgraded item will change as well. For example, a weapon that is upgraded from a unique or rare to an exceptional item will have a chance to get the enhanced defense of the new base item type.
