WoW Upgrades - The Item Upgrader
Upgrades will give you a boosts in certain stats. Each upgrade increases item level by +3. Each upgrade also boosts the random substatus.
The upgraded gear typically has a more value in trade regardless of whether it has low requirements (like the FB sorc's shield) or has a high stat variation (like the eth titan weapons). Upgrades are not as useful for those with lower requirements because of the requirement to roll a perfect version.
Recycle Points
The upgrader for items allows players to upgrade gear to a higher item level by supplying the appropriate currency to the NPC. Upgrades can be made on any type of armor or weapons. The item used to upgrade the item is discarded and cannot be used again. Upgrades can be used to create the enchantments.
The upgrader is located in every major city, and can be accessed at any time to upgrade your equipment. To keep your gear current, it is recommended that you visit the upgrader each few weeks.
Upgrades will cost more depending on the item level, however, they are always less expensive than purchasing new equipment. For instance, upgrading a Benthic chest to ilvl 385 will cost 20 recycle points, while purchasing the same item from another player will cost 105.
Valorstones
Upgrades are items that can be used to purchase tools, armor, weapon and accessory upgrades. They can be purchased by players from NPCs of item upgraders for various currencies. They can also find them on random treasure lists. Once an upgrade is purchased it can be used on any weapon or tool using a button, which will show an image of the item at its next upgrade level in the event that the player has enough materials.
Upgrade costs vary depending on the slot of the item and the current level of the item. For instance weapons are more expensive than gloves, bracers, or bracers. Each step costs 15 Flightstones plus a certain number of crests. Some upgrades give a discount on the Flightstones. After an item has been upgraded to a certain amount, it can be downgraded and sold to the upgrader at a lower price.
Many locations have upgraders for their items which include the main island and a few outposts. The NPCs provide an upgrade discount and a chance to acquire a new upgrade recipe. The discount on upgrades increases according to the number of items being upgraded, and can be increased by requiring players to complete specific achievements or complete quests.
Icewind Dale does not have an upgrader for items at the start, unlike Cromwell from Baldur's Gate II. The NPCs who can facilitate upgrades are available only through a variety of methods. This is both a benefit and a disadvantage.
In Season 3 the upgrade system has been tweaked a bit, with several new features added. Once a player obtains an upgrade to a specific item level for a particular armor slot, upgrading further items to that level will be less expensive, even in the event that they are part of an entirely different set of gear.
The discount applies to all accounts. item upgrades of Harbinger Crests required for upgrades is reduced as well, but is only available after certain milestones have been reached.
Crests
When upgrading equipment in WoW players have a variety of options. They can use Flightstones which are a general upgrade currency that is available to all players, or crests, which are more specialized and are consumed during upgrades at specific item levels. Crests are a crucial component of the Dragonflight Gear Progression System, which was introduced in version 10.1. They are available in four ranks.
The first thing to remember is that Crests are only available to equipment of a certain rank. Each rank has an upgrade path that is different. The simplest and simplest upgrade path costs 15 crests, while the most complex can require as much as 20 crests, based on the type of equipment being upgraded.
Players can earn crests by working through tasks at the appropriate level. This could mean engaging in outdoor activities or taking on dungeons and raids of any difficulty to earn equipment of lower tier or Mythicbosses for raids, or dungeons with a heroic difficulty for gear in the endgame. Crests can be exchanged at an upgrader NPC, like Cuzolth in Dornogal, or Vaskarn in Valdrakken, for the appropriate upgrade routes and steps.
Utilizing these new currencies isn't too difficult, but the system does introduce some changes to the overall upgrade process. When a piece attains the highest level of upgrade for any rank (Explorer or Adventurer), it is no longer required to purchase Flightstones. This change is designed to allow players to upgrade their equipment up to the highest ilvl possible on all their characters instead of relying on seasonal loot.
Another notable change is that crests have one usage and it's crucial to use them properly. For instance it's best to utilize all of your Whelpling rank crests with the best equipment you have and then save Drake and Wyrm crests to use for the next set of upgrades you're planning to create. This is particularly relevant for items like trinkets and rings that fill several slots. The discount for the entire account will only be applicable if all slots on the character are filled with top-quality equipment.
