WoW Upgrades – The Item Upgrader Upgrades give a guaranteed boost to specific stats. Each upgrade increases the item level by +3. Each upgrade also boosts a random substat. Upgraded gear generally sees higher trade value, unless it has inherently low requirements (like the FB sorc's shield) or very high stat variation (like the eth titan weapons). Upgrades are less important for those with higher variance due to the requirement to roll a perfect version. Recycle Points The item upgrade r enables players to upgrade gear to a higher level by providing the appropriate currency to the NPC. Upgrades can be applied on any type of armor or weapons. The item used to upgrade the item is discarded and cannot be used again. Upgrades can also be applied to the enchantments. You can upgrade your gear anytime by visiting the upgrader in any major city. It is recommended to visit the upgrader at least once every few weeks, to keep your equipment up-to-date. The cost of upgrades will depend on the current item level of the equipment being upgraded however, they will always be less expensive than buying new equipment from other sources. For example upgrading a chest piece from Benthic to ilvl 385 will cost 20 recycle points while buying a similar item from another player will costs 105. Valorstones Upgrades are items which can be used to level up weapons, tools, armor, and other accessories. They can be purchased by players through NPCs that sell upgrades to items in exchange for different currencies, and can be found in random treasure lists. Once purchased, an upgrade is able to be applied to any tool, weapon or armor. button, which will show a preview of the item when it is upgraded if the player has sufficient materials. The cost of upgrading varies based on the item slot, and the current item level. For example, weapons will cost more than gloves, bracers or bracers. Each upgrade cost 15 Flightstones and a few crests, with some upgrades offering discounts to reduce the cost of Flightstones or crests that are used. Once an item has been upgraded to a certain amount it is able to be downgraded and sold to the upgrader at a lower cost. A lot of locations offer upgraders for items in addition to the main island and some outposts. The NPCs offer both an upgrade coupon as well as the chance to obtain the latest recipe. The upgrade discount increases according to the number of items being upgraded, and can be boosted by requiring players to complete specific achievements or quests. Icewind Dale does not have an item upgrader at the start unlike Cromwell from Baldur's gate II. The NPCs that can assist with upgrades are available only via a variety of ways. This is both a benefit and a disadvantage. In Season 3, a number of new features were added to the upgrade system. After a player has upgraded to a certain item level for an armor slot, upgrading other items to the same item level, will cost less. This is even if the items are from a different set of gear. The discount is applicable to all accounts. In the same way, the amount of Harbinger Crests needed to upgrade is also reduced and is not available until players have reached certain milestones in their achievements. Crests Players have several choices when it comes to upgrading their equipment in WoW. Flightstones are a currency that is available to everyone who wants to upgrade. Crests are more special, and are used during specific item level upgrades. Crests are an essential part of the Dragonflight gear progression system introduced in 10.1 and are available in 4 ranks. The first thing to be aware of is that crests can only be used on equipment that is of a particular rank, and each rank has different requirements for upgrading. The simplest and most straightforward upgrade route costs 15 crests while the most complex can require as much as 20 crests based on the type of gear that is being upgraded. Players can earn crests by working through content at the appropriate level. This could be by doing outdoor activities or taking on dungeons and raids of all difficulties to get equipment of lower tier or Mythicbosses of 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 to get the appropriate upgrade routes and steps. The new currency system isn't too difficult to use, however it brings some modifications to the upgrade process. When a piece reaches the highest level of upgrade for any rank (Explorer or Adventurer) it will no longer require Flightstones. This change lets players upgrade their equipment to the highest level possible on all their characters, instead of relying on seasonal loot. Another notable modification is that crests have one use, so it's important to use them wisely. It's best to put your Whelpling-rank Crests on the highest-quality gear you can locate, and keep Drake and Wyrm Crests for the next set of upgrades. This is particularly applicable to rings and trinkets that take up multiple slots on the character which will only be able to benefit from the account-wide discount if all slots are full of high-quality equipment.
