Item upgrades are a way to boost the stats of an item. Based on the type of upgrade you choose, it can boost the rarity of an item upgrading or mark Level and increase other stats.

Upgrading gear in The War Within requires a set number of Flightstones and Crests Each item has an upgrade track. Each upgrade increases the price of the next item by a specific amount.

Item Level

The value of an item’s base stats increases when it is upgraded. This value is the sum of the perks that are leveled up (attack magic attack and defense). Upgrades can be expensive depending on who you hire and what you decide to do. This is due to the variety of perks that must be altered to upgrade an item.

It is also used as a gating requirement when waiting for dungeons, raids and scenarios. It is also used as a gating requirement when waiting for dungeons, scenarios, and raids, as well as to limit the amount of PvP gear that a player can wear (since PvP is limited to the lower levels). Players can view their average level of item on their character sheet.

Utilizing the level of an item can help players compare the power of equipment when they decide to buy or sell. It’s an excellent indicator of the quality of an item and the amount of damage it will be able to deal. Comparing items in the inventory of a vendor can be done using the item level.

On PC, you can see the level of the item using ALT, or by using the left stick on XB1 or PS4. This will display the full item description, including its level. You can also find it by hovering over an item and typing in /itemlevel chat.

There are several theories on how the item level calculation is carried out. One theory states that the level of an item is calculated using formulas that determine the worth of an item’s stats really are. It considers that different advantages are valued differently and that gems in the sockets boost the value of the item. This can result in an item’s ilvl calculated, which is usually very close to Blizzard’s actual item level.

It’s not the only factor that affects the level of an item. The level of the area where the item was dropped can alter its stats. For example it can add a level to the item’s haste or crit score. Items that drop in higher-level instances will have higher ilvl.

Item Stats

Item stats can determine the fate of an item for players. The game uses a variety of them in different ways to encourage players to use multiple weapons, and also to stop one weapon from being “the Best item upgrade.” The base stats on a weapon are enhanced by the weapon’s stat modification that are in turn increased by the player’s skill.

The upgrades to items add by increasing certain stats of the item. The cost of upgrades is determined by the rarity of the item. For instance, a grey or white item can only be upgraded once, while items with rare tiers will be upgraded several times with higher prices.

Affixes are another way to alter the stats of an item. These are special stat boosts that can be added to an item by the player, and come in a variety of shapes and sizes. The affixes can provide the item additional damage, add a special capability to the item (such as reviving dead or reducing the duration of cooldowns) or make the item unique by giving a special name to the item.

All affixes are currently re-rolled by selecting them in the upgrade window and pressing the green button. This will cost a specific amount of gold and other items. These can be used as upgrade gauges just like the other rerolling methods.

Players can choose to upgrade an item to a specific stat or reroll affixes. The range of stats is determined by the item’s level. However every item will have at least one stat in the range, unless they are an exclusive item or the item is a God Roll from a raid boss.

Another thing that could change is the possibility to upgrade equipment without having to reroll affixes, or choose which stats to enhance. Like the base equipment, it must be done per item, and the interface for item comparison would not display all the possible stats at once.

Item Luck

The Luck stat of a player increases the chance of finding items, the properties that are generated by loot, and the strength of these properties. It doesn’t, however directly affect damage or the ability to upgrade items. It gives the player the chance to upgrade gear earlier in the game. This is more useful for early game runs, because players tend to put weapon scaling and defenses above raw damage gains.

Luck can also boost the likelihood of upgrading items at the Blacksmith. This is not to confuse with the Blacksmith’s overall chances of upgrading, which increase with each item level. It is also possible to be enhanced by using anti-materials such as the Scroll of Strength and a Jewel of Blessing.

Armor, shields and weapons can be created or spawned using the Luck property, with a default value of 40. These items can then be enhanced by golden ingots, spined leather or oak boards (depending on the material of the item) to grant an additional +40 Luck or to increase the existing Luck of the item up to 140.

Furthermore some items, like the Hollow infused weapon can be outfitted to increase the damage of any damage-dealing skill by five percent. These items can be purchased in the shop or created with the right ingredients.

Item Failure

Upgrades to items are expensive and not all upgrades will succeed. However, there are some cash shop items that allow players to boost their chance of success or stop themselves from losing an item if the upgrade is unsuccessful.

When you upgrade an item, the success rate is shown in the Honing UI. The percentage is the chances of successfully upgrading the item and it can be increased by adding Additional Materials or Special Materials. The percentage of success can only be increased by so much, and the likelihood that an upgrade will fail cannot be greater than 100%..

The Luck of an item may affect the success of an upgrade item. All items have an initial success rate of 25% and every item that has Luck increases that chance by an additional 5%.

It is important to note that upgrade items are rendered above the items in the inventory which means that enchantment glints and other effects may be obstructed by the overlays. If you wish to disable the upgrade overlays, the config option decoration.renderUpgradeOverlays can be set to False in the Item Upgrader CORE client config.
