World of Warcraft Item Upgrades Item upgrades are a way to boost the stats of an item. Based on the type of upgrade, it can increase an item's Rarity or Mark Level, and also boost other stats. Upgrading equipment in The War Within requires a set number of Flightstones and Crests Each item has an upgrade track. Each upgrade increases the cost of the next one by a set amount. Item Level The value of an item's basic stats increases as it is upgraded. This value is the total of all of its leveled up advantages (attack magic attack, attack defense). Upgrades to items can be costly dependent on the upgrader and the type of upgrade you choose to make. This is due to the variety of perks that must be modified to upgrade an item. The level of an item is a commonly used measurement of power and is visible on all tooltips of items. It also serves to limit how much PvP gear players can use since PvP is not available at a lower level. Players can view their average item level in their character sheet. The level of an item can help players compare the power of equipment when choosing to buy or sell. It's a measure of the item's condition and quality. The item level can also be used to compare items when evaluating a vendor's inventory. The level of the item can be checked by pressing the ALT key on PC or using the left stick (L3) on XB1 and PS4. This will display the item's full description, including ilvl. You can also find it by hovering over an item and typing /itemlevel into chat. There are a variety of theories on the method by which the level of an item is calculated. One theory is that the level is a number that comes from a formula that determines the amount an item's stats are worth. It takes into consideration the fact that various perks have different value and that sockets have gems that increase the value of the item overall. This could result in an item's ilvl which is calculated and is usually very close to Blizzard's real item level. However, this isn't the only factor that affects an item's ilvl, because the size of the area the item is dropped into can alter the value of its stats, for instance by adding a level to its haste or crit rating. This means that items that drop at higher levels will have more ilvl than those from lower-level instances. Item Stats Item stats are a big element in what determines the value of an item for players. The game makes use of them in various ways to encourage players not to limit themselves to a single weapon and to encourage players to explore other weapons. The stat mods of an weapon increase the base stats. These stat mods are then increased by a player's skill. Upgrades to an item may increase its stats. The cost of upgrades is determined by the rarity of the item. For instance, a grey or white item will only be upgraded once, whereas an item with the rare levels will be upgraded multiple times at higher prices. Affixes can also be used to alter the stats of an item. They are stat boosters that can be added by the player to an item. Affixes can be used to give the item extra damage, or add a unique ability to the item (such as reviving dead or decreasing the cooldowns), or make the item unique by giving an exclusive name to the item. All affixes are being re-rolled right now by selecting them in the upgrade window pressing the green button. This procedure will cost the player a certain amount of gold and items that can be added to the upgrade gauge in the same manner as the other rerolling options. Players can upgrade an item with a specific stat or reroll the affixes. The stat ranges are determined by the item's level. However every item will contain at least one stat in the same range, unless it's a unique item or an item that has a God Roll from a boss in a raid. Another thing that could change is the possibility to upgrade equipment without having to reroll attachments, or pick which stats to enhance. As with the base equipment, it would have to be done per item and the interface for item comparison will not show all possible stats at once. Item Luck The Luck stat of a player boosts the chance of finding items, the properties that are generated by loot, and the strength of these properties. It does not, however directly impact damage or the ability to upgrade item s. It gives the player an opportunity to get better gear earlier in the game. This is particularly useful in the early game, because players tend to put defenses and weapon scaling over raw damage gains. In addition to influencing item discovery, Luck also increases the chances of success when upgrading items with the Blacksmith. This is not to be confused with the Blacksmith's overall upgrade probability that increases with each level of the item and can be further increased by using an anti-material such as a Scroll of Strength or a Jewel of Blessing. Weapons, armor, and shields can be created or spawned using the Luck property, which has a default value of 40. These items can then be upgraded with golden ingots, spined leather or oak boards (depending on the type of material used) to grant a further +40 Luck or to increase the luck of an item, up to 140. Additionally some items, such as the Hollow weapon, which is infused with Hollow can be used to increase the damage of any damage-dealing skill by 5%. These items can be purchased in the shops or made using the right ingredients. Item Failure Upgrades to items are a costly process and not all upgrades will succeed. Cash shop items can be used to boost the success rate of an upgrade or to prevent players from losing their items if it does not work. When you upgrade an item, the success rate is displayed in the Honing UI. The percentage represents the chance of successfully upgrading the item and it can be increased by adding Additional Materials or Special Materials. The chance of success can only be increased by so high, and the probability that the upgrade will fail cannot exceed 100%. The Luck of an item may influence the success of an upgrade. Each item has an average success rate of 25%, and each item with Luck increases that chance by an additional 5percent. The upgrade overlays of the item are displayed above items in the inventory. This can block enchantment effects as well as other effects. If you wish to disable the upgrade overlays, the config option decoration.renderUpgradeOverlays can be set to False in the Item Upgrader CORE client config.
