Upgrades to equipment give an increase in the item's stats. The bonus is according to the rarity and level of the upgrade component.
Components
Upgrade components make your armour and weapons stronger. You can find them by destroying enemies, buying them from karma vendors, or finding them in items-spheres. You can also get them from equipment containing the components, or by utilizing salvage kits of high-end quality, such as Black Lion Salvage Kit and Ascended Salvage Tool. Contrary to other products upgrades aren't destroyed when they are removed from an item.
Upgrade components are primarily used to upgrade an item however, they can also be used for other purposes. They can be stacked to increase the level of an upgradeable item, or they can be used to enhance the experience gained when upgrading an existing weapon or piece of equipment. They can also be forged to provide extra bonuses. For instance, a created glyph can increase the chance of upgrading its target, whereas an upgrade boost will enhance the defense or attack attribute of a weapon or armor.
You can bind an upgrade template to an item by selecting it from the edition GUI. This will show a list of upgrade components that the item can be upgraded to. Alternatively, you can use the workbench to select an upgrade template. In either scenario, an item will be upgraded after enough upgrade components have been collected.
Each component has a unique experience multiplier. This determines how much experience an item gains when upgraded using the component. For instance, organic components offer a higher experience multiplier than mechanical ones. Therefore, it is recommended to upgrade using organic components until you reach the experience multiplier for the next level of the weapon or gear, and then move to mechanical upgrades.
In addition to the multiplier of experience Each item also comes with the maximum number of upgrades that it can receive. The number of upgrades is determined by the upgradeable rank and the type of upgrade for the upgradeable item. The highest upgrade possible is a weapon of tier 10. The most commonly used upgrade is a gun of tier 6 and an armor upgrade for tier 5.
item upgrader is a collection of items that share the same bonus. Each item in the set can be upgraded at least once and the upgrade increases the amount of bonuses that are guaranteed. When you first upgrade an item or set piece is that it will be given an increase of +1 to its primary stat. On subsequent upgrades, primary stats are boosted even further (for instance the +1 bonus for 12+/13+/14+) and each time an item is upgraded, one of its stats will increase randomly.
The upgrade of a weapon can increase its damage base, which can be crucial for certain builds. Weapons cannot be upgraded for a higher maximum defence roll than their base. It's possible to increase the value of certain set and unique items by upgrading them, however they're not always superior to a high-level Runeword.
If the item you're upgrading has a guaranteed bonus that is guaranteed, it can be rerolled a few times and the guarantee will be reset to 0. Rerolling will cost the same amount of power dice as bringing an item up, but the new item will offer various bonuses. Upgrades can be made at the NPC [Armorthe ] Boboko in the Central Flarine. To upgrade an item, you will require a power die of each kind (Dice 4 or 6 drop from monsters 21+ and Giants; dice 7 drops from bosses) and the proper amount of Minerals and Erons. These can be bought with Gold at the crafting table or in the Ultra Collection. The NPCs will also offer special rewards for each stage of the upgrade process. The reward can be rerolled a single time with the same materials as the original item.
Rerolling
A player can play rerolling any item that they acquire in the game provided they have enough reroll tokens to be able to do so. When an upgraded item is being rerolled, it can be exchanged for an equivalent level 1 version of the same item from a different set. Reroll tokens are available in the store for a small amount of in-game currency. They cannot be refunded. The new item will have the same bonuses like the first, however the statistics will also differ.
Players can change the identification of their equipment, in addition to rerolling it by interacting with an upgrader NPC. This will change the identity from an armor to a weapon or vice versa, while maintaining its base stats and required attributes. The change will be permanent and will affect all characters who have the equipment.
Players can also increase the level of an item equipped equipment by obtaining upgrade components and communicating with the upgrader NPC of the item. The cost will vary depending on the upgrade track, item type, and the number of crests. Each step will give an additional 5% of damage to weapons.
Upgrading an item can boost its power however, it can reduce its effectiveness. Therefore, it is important to find a balance between these two. Certain items aren't worth upgrading, while others require upgrades to maximize their potential. A player might want to upgrade breakpoint armor with an interesting modification ( percent block chance, or FHR) in order to explore what else it can become.
Rerolling is a standard practice in Genshin Impact and other gacha-based games. It is a method used by players to gain access to the character or weapon they cannot otherwise get. These items are time-consuming and costly to acquire and the RNG doesn't always play nice. The only alternatives are to invest money or grind a lot. Rerolling is very popular in Genshin Impact.
Leveling
When upgrading an item, you can increase the level of the weapon or armor. This feature isn't available in the current version of the game. I believe it was designed to be a way to increase the value of rare items, but as gear in general drops fairly quickly and can only be upgraded once you've reached a certain level, you'll usually replace the item before it gets old enough. It is also not worth upgrading items with gem sockets because the power of the gem will outweigh any increase in the level of.
If you click on the upgrade option on an item, you'll get a small screen with the item's upgrade template and the crest and Valorstone costs to increase the level of the item. Weapons and armor will have different costs, with the former typically being more costly. The upgrade template outlines the stats that can be added to an upgraded item, as well as its current ilvl.
The Crest and Valorstone costs are calculated according to the item's current ilvl as well as the upgrade template. The ilvl will also be reduced by the upgrade templates reduction percentage for lvl. For example, a weapon with an 8% upgrade decrease will reduce its value by 8-8 percent.
The item will receive upgrades to other stats like critical strike damage, PvE damage, and block, parry, and dodge rating, in addition to the base ilvl. These increases are built on the upgrade template.
In the upgrade template you can determine the amount of damage or defense the item will receive after it is leveled up. This is displayed below the cost and the upgrade percentages. All weapons and armor apart from practice equipment get these stats once they've been leveled up. The value of these stats will be determined by the market, with a perfectly perfectly rolled version of a piece of armor or weapon is able to command more in trade value than unupp'd versions. The same is true for other pieces of armor like circlets and tiaras.
