Upgrade components
A level upgrade in Guild Wars 2 is a procedure that can improve the power of your armor and weapons. This can be done through various methods that include the use of upgrade components and also upgrading an item's mark levels or rarity. Additionally there are many items that can be reforged to increase their stats.
Upgradeable items are available throughout the game, both around the world and as rewards for missions. Players can also make them. The most common method of upgrading equipment is through the use of upgrade components which are the items that can be inserted into equipment. Most equipment has upgrade slots, and the majority require a certain level of upgrade. Certain upgrade components provide specific bonuses, while others offer a general bonus.
There are upgrade item of upgrade components in the game, such as universal upgrades, inscriptions, and jewels. Universal upgrades, like gems and enchantments, are able to be placed in any kind of equipment and provide smaller bonuses than those that are type specific. Glyphs are only available in gathering tools. They offer a range of bonuses, ranging from boosting the speed of an item's gathering to providing extra crafting material.
Select the item in your inventory, then open the Upgrade window. The preview will appear on the right-hand side of the screen. It will show the expected statistics after the upgrade. The Upgrade button at the bottom will read Blocked if you don't have enough of or.
The amount of upgrade components required for a given item can be seen in the upper-right corner of the window for upgrading. The cost of upgrading increases with the level of the upgrade and its rarity, but it can be reduced by various methods, such as buying upgrades at a merchant or trading them to other players.
Nearly all weapons can be upgraded with an upgrade to a prefix like an insignia, or a rune, and many can be upgraded using a suffix upgrade. These upgrades change the name of the item to add an adjective, like 'Radiant' or 'Minor Vigor. The only exceptions are the noninscribable wands, foci and shields from the Prophecies and Factions campaigns, which cannot be upgraded with any mods.
Glyphs
Glyphs are a powerful tool to communicate visual information. They animate to capture the viewer's attention and spur curiosity in the brain. The glyphs' animation mimics the body language and makes them more effective in communicating a linguistic barrier-crossing message. Glyphs also create a sense of familiarity in the brain, thereby increasing retention of the message.
Each glyph increases the value of a stat by a certain amount. This is displayed on the item when you open it in the Glyph Storage. This is the maximum value that the glyph can enhance a stat by but not the amount it actually improves the stat by. The actual value of the glyph is determined by the quality and tier of the item you are enchanting it to.
The majority of upgrade components that are slotted into items cannot be replaced or salvaged without dismantling the gear in question, except for legendary equipment and upgrades. If you do have a non-useful rune or glyph that has not yet been added to your equipment, you can transfer it to a different piece equipment by using the Upgrade Glyphs context menu on the Glyphs panel. This will create a new Glyph Set with the selected glyph.
If you wish to remove a glyph from a piece of then you'll need to salvage it using a Black Lion Salvage Kit or Ascended Salvage Tool. The item will be destroyed within which it is placed, but you can recover the upgraded item using the glyph and its shards, therefore, it shouldn't be considered a loss.
The addition of a glyph to an item can cause it to become unstable, and the shards of the glyph will disappear from your inventory once you dismantle the item. You can also apply a glyph on your equipment to provide a bonus. Deferred Damage, for example can be used to store damage and then be dealt slowly to the wearer instead of all at once. This is useful for those who take many hits from enemies but don't want to be overwhelmed.
Reroll tokens
Reroll tokens permit players to change the affixes of their weapons and equipment and can be found in a variety of ways such as in mistery boxes or as a rare drop from skulled creatures, or even from killing bosses. Each reroll token grants the player a new random affix, which is typically superior to the original. Reroll tokens can also be used to upgrade weapon stats to cause more damage or bonuses.
Rerolled items don't appear in the menu of upgrade options, however they are still able to be upgraded. These rerolled items are able to be recycled by pressing the "upgrade" button which alters the layout of the item window and allows up to six items to be selected to recycle. Recycling an item adds small amount of points to its gauge of level. This amount is determined by the rarity of the item and its level, which means higher-level items are more useful to recycle than lower-level ones.
In addition to reroll tokens players can also make use of Star Remnants and Reroll Tokens to roll the weapon traits of an upgraded unit. Rerolls roll the % chance of a particular weapon trait; if it rolls higher, the weapon will be upgraded, and if it is lower, the weapon remains the same. Weapons can be upgraded up to three times.
Rerolling is a great option to upgrade an item. However, players should be aware of the fact that the total ilvl will be diminished by the number of that it took to reroll it to the final level. This reduction effect is most effective with ring items and Diadems that do not have any competing ilvl-raising options.
Some players have complained that the reroll system is too expensive. It's more fair to allow players to pay for it with money or food items which would allow players to make adjustments to their builds without having to spend too much time. However the paid rerolls aren't something the developers want to incorporate at this point in the game's development. They plan to add an ingredient that allows players to change their race in the near future.
Leveling
There are a variety of ways to upgrade an item. The first way to level up an upgrade for an item is by increasing the amount of upgrade. This boosts the value of an upgrade for a stat. The second is to boost the effect of an upgrade which increases the healing or damage of a particular stat. Additionally there is the possibility to upgrade the base item to a higher upgrade type. After this the new item will maintain its iLevel but it will benefit from the upgrade effects of the upgraded type of item.
It is crucial to keep in mind that upgrades can be random. Most of the time, a better roll will come from the glyphs, but there are also opportunities for greater or special rolls. Additionally the iLevel of the upgrade will be determined by the type of item which means that when you upgrade a rare or unique item to an extraordinary type, it will have a chance to gain an iLevel that is higher.
Upgrades can be expensive, especially if you are upgrading equipment from the standard track to the legendary. The cost will depend on the item's iLevel base and the number of upgrade levels it comes with. In addition, some upgrade tracks require crests in order to get to the next upgrade level.
If you're lucky the upgraded item will be at the maximum level of its upgrade track and gain an additional bonus effect. This will increase the item's upgrade value. The bonus effect changes with each upgrade level. Generally speaking the effect of upgrading is increased by a value of +3.
Depending on the item's level of base and upgrade process, the iLevel for the upgraded item will change as well. For example the weapon that has been upgraded from a unique or rare to an exceptional item is likely to get the Enhanced Defense of the new base item type.
