Path of Exile Item Upgrades Upgrades to items are a common and important way to improve the performance of numerous items in Path of Exile They can be a good source of extra damage more AD or even more attaches Raregrade equipment can be superior to the more modernized Common or Magic gear due to their higher requirements Armor Armor upgrades can be applied to both armor and weapon items They increase the effectiveness of the item that they are attached to Upgrades to armor can be found in the world of games and can be purchased from Blacksmiths at bonfires item upgrades can also be salvaged using an expert or higher salvage kit to recover upgrade components from other items The amount of damage that a piece of armor or weapon is able to absorb is dependent on the extent of its upgrades The damage absorption of an item of armor will increase as it is upgraded to the highest upgrade level However its important to keep in mind that this will increase its weight which will cause it to be heavier than it was before There are many different kinds of armor upgrades that are available in the game Each has a different effect Certain upgrades give armor a greater number of health points while others make it stronger and lighter The kind of armor upgrade an item will receive is indicated by the name of the upgrade as shown in the table below Some of the upgrades are also magic or a mix of magic and technology which is indicated by a Magic or Hybrid entry in the table below Some upgrades also require charges in order to be used These are identified as Charges entries in the table These charges are constantly updated or never expire depending on the upgrade The cheapest way to upgrade armor is with Iron Ore which can be obtained by exploring the environment and looting chests of minor loot Titanium is more costly but is readily available in the smelters of Orgrimmar and Stormwind City Certain upgrades such as the Reforge or the Hot Potato Books can only be applied to armor pieces that are of highlevel These upgrades can give a significant improvements in stats and are well worth the investment The player must be aware however that upgrading a piece to the maximum upgrade level can increase its defense value However it will also decrease the speed and agility of the piece It is not recommended to upgrade armor above 9 The boost in defense generally isnt worth the weight and power cost of the upgrades Weapons Weapon upgrades give players to enhance certain aspects of their weapon Upgrades can improve the accuracy of a rifle or the damage caused by shotgun shells Some weapons also have special upgrades that enhance their inherent qualities They include Frictionless Materials improves stability and decreases the chance of the risk of overheating and Kinetic Coils increases the velocity of projectiles for greater damage The majority of upgrades to weapons require one of three Power Dices a different amount of Minerals and Erons and a whetblade to apply They can be obtained by completing side quests or by killing a certain number of monsters and bosses To upgrade an equipment set weapon piece or Whetblade You must go to the NPC ArmorBoboko Boboko located in Central Flarine and pay her an upgrade fee that is a certain amount of bars The more bars required to complete an upgrade the more expensive the upgrade If you have multiple upgrade materials the cost of upgrading will be lower In Chapter 2 Season 5 the method of upgrading your equipment and weapon sets was a bit different In the past you could go to an Upgrade Bench and pay for a specific amount of Bars to upgrade your weapon or equipment to a higher quality You could do this until your weapon or equipment reached its maximum upgrade level at which point the upgrades would be reset Its possible but it is dependent heavily on RNG Instead youre better off visiting stores and buying gear with low upgrade levels but excellent base scores and stat distributions They will also be able to give you the best tier of bonuses and blessings To increase their level faster many players prioritize upgrading their weapons In addition players they should also consider upgrading the weapons they use with their teammates to increase their power and effective Shepard for instance should upgrade his M92F in order to unlock the Beretta M93R This will make the weapon more useful when used with biotic specialists such as Grunt and Tali Jewels Jewels are utilized in the sockets of armor and weapons enhancing the stats of a weapon and providing additional effects They can be made through a process called jewelry crafting in which you combine a gemstone and a number of specific reagents at a jewelry table The higher the grade of the gem the greater the secondary effect item upgrader can be gotten from Treasure Goblins and World Bosses around the world or by salvaging Legendary Gear You can also buy them from The Jeweler for gold and a Scattered Prism The quality of a gem can be improved upon by the Jeweler in stages that vary from Crude to Royal The stat boosts can vary according to the tier that the jewel is at when its slotted into jewelry weapons or equipment The Jeweler can create all tiers of gems except for the rare and legendary ones which you must attain a certain level to get Jewels can be replaced by another jewel without destroying the original However you can only replace one jewel in an item of equipment once Using more jewels in a move will make it more smooth and is usually done to enhance the aesthetics of the movement In addition to enhancing performance the diamonds create an area that is stronger than metal which means that repeated friction from pivots wont damage them as easily A Glyphmaster can offer glyphs to improve the look of your shields and weapons These glyphs give a slight boost and can be freely exchanged however they are not guaranteed to show up as loot Glyphs are upgradeable like jewelry at the Jeweler for gold and also a Scattered Crystal Glyphs can also be removed and returned to the inventory Other upgrade components such as traits or aegis cannot be swapped and can only be recovered through an upgrade extractor or salvaging with the Black Lion Salvage Kit or Ascended Salvage tool Trinkets Trinkets are a great way to provide your hero with many small but beneficial advantages They are available in the startup area as rewards for personal stories or loot They can also be obtained from vendors and by completing road interaction They can also be crafted by jewelers and later found or purchased on the Trading Post The first trinkets a player can unlock is the cloak which gives a small but useful bonus to movement speed and evasion After that theyll be able to get amulets rings and necklaces in a similar fashion to how the player acquires weapons and armor Each piece of equipment comes with a slot for an upgrade that is either universal or jewel Universal upgrades provide smaller bonuses and can be used in any type of equipment while jewelry cannot be replaced or upgraded and only works with specific types of trinkets These trinkets can provide additional bonuses and abilities that are active even when the hero isnt in combat This allows the hero to become more efficient even when not in combat It can also compensate for the absence of strong slots in the team or talent tree which are usually filled by a heros top stats A good rule of thumb for trinket upgrades is to prioritize BiS BestinSlot items that you arent planning to replace soon followed by any items with desirable stats that are less important than the iLevel of the item that is being upgraded This is especially true when youre looking to upgrade several stats on an item It is more beneficial to upgrade a single important stat instead of two subpar ones At the beginning of the game players in the jungle are likely to upgrade their yellow trinket into a red one while top and middle players usually choose a green or pink ward depending on the games matchup These choices will have a major impact on the heros abilities to control maps In addition to the items listed above players will also find other trinkets in the form of rewards and trophies throughout the game These can be obtained through completing certain milestones in the story for instance finishing a chapters main quest or killing a certain boss You can check them out by selecting the achievement from the reward section of the heros menu
