World of Warcraft Item Upgrades Upgrades to items give players the ability to upgrade equipment that they already own. This can be done at any item upgrader NPC. Generally upgrades increase an items main stats and provide additional benefits based on the type. Examples include Whistan's shield for FB sorcs and Goldwrap for build casters. Armour Link's armor is a key element to protect him from danger. Although it isn't upgraded like weapons, you can enhance its defence capabilities in various ways. The basic idea of armour is to shield a person or animal from physical injury or harm in the form of direct physical attack or from a range of environmental and activity hazards. Historically, armour was mostly made of leather or fabric but later, protections made of metal were used as well particularly in military applications such as heavy cavalry or combat drones. As with item upgrading there are a variety of ways in which armor can be upgraded but the majority of them require visiting one of the four Great Fairy Fountains located throughout Hyrule. Each fountain has its own level of upgrades available with higher levels of upgrades granting higher levels of protection, and requiring a higher cost in rupees and materials to unlock. The first thing to remember about Armor Upgrades is that they are permanent upgrades and once they've been applied they cannot be replaced unless there is another piece of equipment that comes with the same upgrade. It is recommended to only apply the most advanced upgrades to your equipment and make sure that you have all the components needed to complete the process. For those who want to acquire the required upgrade components you'll find them all over Hyrule, including shrines, merchants and even enemies. These are usually marked with a blue triangle or a gold circle and are found in huge numbers as you progress. They could appear randomly, but there is a chance that getting certain upgrades will trigger a quest that will reward you with more. It is also important to note that even though the amount of protection provided by each upgrade varies however, it's the same across all upgrades and will always be better than nothing. A full set of upgraded armor will give you a high-defense boost that can protect you from any kind of attack, except magic. This makes it a formidable weapon for any type of. Weapons If you'd like to make your guns unique, you can enhance them with a variety of special upgrades. They can increase the damage, alter the weapon's stats to cater to your build and even unlock new attachments, such as unique ammo types, enchantments and more aesthetic options. You'll need both the upgrade component as well as the weapon itself to upgrade it. The weapon should also be at or above a certain point for the upgrade to take effect and the majority of weapons can only take one upgrade at one time. There are weapons upgrade components scattered throughout the globe and even from enemies and can be bought from a merchant. The upgrade components themselves are a combination of components that can be put into armor, weapons trinkets, trinkets, or gathering tools to give an attribute bonus or extra impact while they're being used. They require equipment to be of a certain level to be able to take the upgrade. They can be upgraded in the same way as other items. Upgrades are a combination of Smithing Stones (a type of stone) and Runes. They are used to enhance the effectiveness of weapons and enhance their ability to scale with other stats. These upgrades are available from enemies in the open world, or from merchants. They are also dropped through combat. There are two NPCs who can upgrade your weapons: Blacksmith Hewg in the Roundtable Hold hub area and the Smithing Master Iji in the Road to the Manor hub area. Both of these NPCs will accept your Smithing Stones and Runes in exchange for a more powerful version of the weapon as well as an upgrade. It's important to prioritize upgrading your best-in-slot items first, then items that you won't need to replace soon. Upgrade your weapon first, then upgrade your shoulders, chest, hands, and feet when you are planning to play in a melee-based build. The same principles apply to Magic and Utility Items, with the caveat that certain items may be better than others depending on your playstyle. Similar is the case for Armour, with some reforges being better than others. Magic Items A character is able to upgrade only one magic item. If an upgrade project is cancelled and the next upgrade for that item will not begin. Upgraded magic items cost twice as much gold to make or purchase, however they may provide other benefits. A magical item is an item that has some special properties or effects. These are usually weapons, but they could also be shields, armors or cloaks as well as potions. They can also be scrolls, rings or other items. Some of these items are sentient. Most magic items can be upgraded to be equipped with additional capabilities. This makes them more useful to players or aid them overcome a difficult encounter. A weapon that is infused can provide bonus damage against a particular enemy type, for example. This is particularly useful for characters that have reached a stage at which they are likely to encounter the same type of monster repeatedly in dungeons. A ring infused by magic may provide immunity to nonmagical attacks that bludgeon or pierce or slash (excluding silvered attacks) until the character gets another long rest. This can be particularly helpful for combatants who are melee or anyone who wants to avoid the cost and hassle of purchasing a shield. Certain items with enchanted properties have special abilities that allow the character to cast spells in addition to the ones on their class's spell list. This can be useful for characters who have difficulty maintaining their spell slots because of multiclassing. These enchanted objects require an Intelligence check (Arcana), and the spell is determined by rolling a table that is based on the amount of Intelligence points spent. Other objects with enchanted powers could permit the character's appearance to be changed, or they could even create a completely new one. They can be especially useful for those who have had to leave their home, or are in a location where they might not be welcome. A magical item can grant them invisibility or make them invisible for everyone, except for the chosen person. Utility Items Utility items are equipment that do not fit into the categories of clothing, armor or Weapons, and provide a range of different capabilities. Utility items aren't compatible with each other, as opposed to weapons or armor. The majority of utility items come with a passive effect that players can activate while using them. However, some have additional abilities that are activated by pressing a button or triggering the skill. Generally, the most common type of utilitarian item is the Flashlight that illuminates the surrounding area. Other utility items include the Helicopter Cap and Rocket Boots which allow the player float in mid-air while moving and the Jetpack that allows the player to accelerate in all directions when on the ground. Many useful items can be immediately manufactured in the Engineering section, while others are unlockable through research projects or experimental projects in the Proving Ground. In addition to the items available in the normal inventory, players can unlock the most useful items of utility by purchasing them from the Atomic Shop and also from seasonal Scoreboard rewards (such as the Shadow Goggles). Certain of these items can be upgraded to allow greater effectiveness. The majority of utility items provide the player with a navigational advantage or increase a specific combat ability. Sharpening stones, created by the Weaponsmith will increase power and Ferocity while Maintenance Oils, made by the Huntsman can increase concentration and healing power. Other utility items such as Writs or Theses made by the Scribe can be utilized to give the player an increase in Damage or Condition Damage. All XCOM soldiers can be equipped with a useful item at the beginning of the campaign. Eventually, an additional slot is made available by acquiring certain types of armor or completing engineering research or experiments in the Proving Ground. During the Alien Hunters downloadable content, additional slots can be obtained by equipping a Grenade Launcher. This permits the player to utilize the Smoke Grenade or Bomb while an offensive grenade remains in the main slot.
