Upgrade components
An upgrade for an item in Guild Wars 2 is a process that can increase the power of your weapon and armor. This can be done through many different methods that include using upgrade components as well as upgrading an item's mark level or rarity. A lot of items can be reforged to boost their value.
You can find upgradeable items throughout the game. item upgrader are available in all over the world, as well as rewards for missions. Players can also make them. Upgrade components are the main way to upgrade equipment. These are items that can be inserted into equipment. The majority of equipment comes with upgrade slots, and most require a certain upgrade level. Certain upgrade components offer specific bonuses, while others offer a general bonus.
There are a variety of upgrade components available in the game. These include universal upgrades, inscriptions, and jewels. Universal upgrades, such as gemstones and enchantments, can be placed in any equipment type and offer fewer bonuses than those that are equipment type specific to the type of equipment. Glyphs can only be found in gathering tools. They offer a range of bonuses, ranging from boosting the speed at which an item gathers to providing extra crafting material.
Select the item in your inventory, then open the Upgrade window. This will display an overview on the right side of the screen showing the expected stats after the upgrade, as well as any required components or materials. The Upgrade button at the bottom will read blocked if you don't have enough of or.
The amount of upgrade components needed for a particular item is displayed in the upper-right corner of the window for upgrading. The cost of an upgrade increases with the level of upgrade and rarity, but it can be reduced by various ways, such as purchasing upgrades from a retailer or trading them to other players.
Nearly all weapons can be upgraded with an upgrade to a prefix, such as an insignia or a rune, and a lot of them are upgraded by suffix upgrades. These upgrades can be used to add an adjective to the name of the item for example "Radiant" or "Minor Vigor".
Glyphs
Glyphs are a way to convey information via visuals. They are animated to grab the viewer's attention and spur interest in the brain. The animation of glyphs resembles body language, which makes them more effective at conveying the message across linguistic barriers. Glyphs can also increase the recall of a message by evoking an emotional connection in the brain.
Each glyph has a range of values it can enhance a stat in the form of an item when you open the glyph in the Glyph Storage or when you use them to enchant an artifact. This is not the actual amount at the glyph can increase the stat, but rather the maximum amount it can increase a stat. The value of the glyph depends on the tier as well as the quality of the product you are admiring.
The majority of upgrade components inserted into items can't be removed or replaced without removing them except for legendary equipment and upgrades. If you have a glyph or rune you do not want to use, but it's not been applied to the gear yet, you can transfer the item to a different piece by selecting the Upgrade Glyphs menu within the Glyphs Panel. This will create a new Glyph Set with the selected glyph.
You can remove any glyph with the help of a Black Lion Salvage Kit, or an Ascended Salvage tool. The item where the glyph is installed will be destroyed, however the upgraded item can be salvaged with the glyph shards.
When you take away an item after putting a glyph on it, the shards of the glyph will disappear. You can also add an inscription to your equipment to give it a bonus. Deferred Damage, for example, can store damage and then be dealt out slowly to the wearer instead of all at one time. This is helpful for players who are taking lots of damage from their enemies but don't want to be overwhelmed.
Reroll tokens
Reroll tokens let players alter the affixes on their weapons and equipment, and they can be obtained in various ways, including in mistery boxes, as rare drops from skulled creatures, or by killing bosses. Every reroll grants the player an affix randomly chosen and usually better than what they had before. Reroll tokens are also a good method to reroll the stats of a weapon and can be upgraded for better damage or perks.
Items that have been rerolled do not appear in the item upgrade menu, however, they are still eligible to receive upgrades. If you click the "upgrade button", you can recycle these items that have been rerolled. This will change the design of the item's window, and allow up to six items be selected to recycle. Recycling an item adds a small amount of points to its level gauge. The amount is by the rarity of the item and also its level. Thus, items with higher levels are more valuable to recycle than items with lower levels.
In addition to tokens for rerolls players can also use Star Remnants and Reroll Tokens to roll the Weapon Traits of an upgraded unit. Rerolls will roll a % chance of a weapon's traits. If it scores higher, the weapon is upgraded. If it rolls lower, the weapon remains unchanged. Weapons can be upgraded up to 3 times.
Rerolling is a great method to improve an item. However, players should be aware of the fact that the total ilvl will be diminished by the number of rerolls it took to get it to the final ilvl. This effect of lowering is most effective on ring items and Diadems that don't have competing ilvl-raising options.
Players have complained that the reroll system is expensive. It would be fairer to allow people to pay for it with cash or food items, which allows players to make changes to their builds without having to invest too much time. The developers have no plans to offer paid rerolls in this stage in the game's development. They plan to add a potion that will allow players to change their race in the future.
Leveling
There are several ways to upgrade an item. The first method of leveling up an upgrade to an item is by increasing the upgrade amount. This increases the value of an upgrade for the stat. The second is to increase the upgrade effect which increases the damage or heal of a particular stat. In addition there is the possibility to upgrade the base item to a more powerful upgrade type. Once this is done, the new item will keep its iLevel, but will be upgraded with the effects of the upgraded item type.
When upgrading your items It is crucial to keep in mind that upgrades are random. Most of the time the best roll will be derived from glyphs, but there are also chances for higher or more special rolls. Additionally, the iLevel of the upgrade will be determined by the item type, so should you upgrade a unique or rare item to a unique type you could gain an iLevel that is higher.
Upgrades can be costly particularly if you are upgrading gear from the standard track to the legendary. The cost of upgrading a piece of equipment will depend on its base iLevel as well as the amount of upgrade levels. Additionally, certain upgrade tracks require crests in order to achieve the next upgrade level.
If you're lucky, your upgraded item will be at the highest level of its upgrade track, and will unlock an additional bonus effect. This will provide a significant boost in the upgrade value of the item. The bonus effect will vary with each upgrade level, however. Generally speaking the upgrade effect is increased by a value of +3.
The iLevel also changes according to the upgrade path and its base level. For example an item that has been upgraded from a rare or unique item to an exceptional item will have a chance to gain the Enhanced Defense of the base type of item.
