WoW Upgrades - The Item Upgrader

Upgrades provide a guaranteed boost to certain stats. Each upgrade increases item level by 3. Each upgrade also increases a random substat.

Upgraded gear is generally more valuable, unless it has low requirements by nature (like FB sorc shields) or a high stat variance (like Eth Titan weapons). The latter see less value from upgrading due to the need to roll for a perfect version.

Recycle Points

The item upgrader allows players to upgrade their gear by offering the currency to an NPC. Upgrades can be applied on any kind of armor or weapons. The item upgrader mod used to upgrade the item is discarded and cannot be used again. Upgrades can also be applied to enhancements.

You can upgrade your gear at any time by visiting the upgrader in any major city. To keep your gear up-to-date, it is recommended that you visit the upgrader each several weeks.

Upgrades can cost more based on the level of the item however, they are always less expensive than purchasing new gear. For instance upgrading a chest piece from Benthic to ilvl 385 will cost 20 recycle points while purchasing the same 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 bought by players through NPCs that sell upgrades to items in exchange for various currencies, and can be found in random treasure lists. Once purchased, an upgrade can be used on any tool, weapon, or armor. button, which will display a preview of the item when it is upgraded if the player has sufficient materials.

Upgrade costs differ based on the item slot, and the current item upgrader mod level. For example weapons cost more than gloves, bracers, or bracers. Each step costs 15 Flightstones and a variety of crests, with certain upgrades having a discount to lower the cost of the Flightstones or the crests used. Once an item has been upgraded to a certain amount, it can be downgraded and sold to the upgrader for a lower price.

A lot of locations offer upgraders for items, including the main Island and a few outposts. The NPCs provide both an upgrade coupon and the chance to obtain the latest recipe. The upgrade discount increases according to the number of items that are being upgraded. It is also possible to be boosted by having players complete some specific achievements or quests.

Icewind Dale does not have an upgrader for items at the start, unlike Cromwell from Baldur's gate II. The NPCs who can facilitate upgrades are only accessible through a variety of methods. This is both a benefit as well as a disadvantage.

In Season 3 the upgrade system has been altered a bit, with numerous new features added. After a player has upgraded to a certain item upgrader mod level for an armor slot upgrading other items to the same item upgrading level, will cost less. This is true even if those items are from an entirely different set of gear.

The amount of Valorstones required for upgrades is reduced, and the discount is available across all accounts. The amount of Harbinger Crests required for upgrades is reduced also, but is only available once certain milestones are achieved.

Crests

Players have a variety of options for upgrading their gear in WoW. Flightstones are an item level Upgrade that is available to everyone who wants to upgrade. Crests are more specific and are used for specific item level upgrades. Crests are the main component of the Dragonflight gear progression system introduced in 10.1 and are available in four ranks.

The first thing to note is that crests are only able to be spent on equipment of a particular rank, and each rank has different requirements for its upgrade path. The most basic and straightforward upgrade path costs 15 crests, while the more complex one requires as many as 20 crests based on the type of equipment being upgraded.

Players can earn crests by finishing content at the appropriate level, which means walking around and doing outdoor activities for gear of lower tiers, raids or dungeons with all difficulty for items of higher tier or Mythic+ heroic raid bosses and dungeons for endgame gear. Crests can be exchanged at an item upgrader NPC like Cuzolth in Dornogal, or Vaskarn in Valdrakken to get the appropriate upgrade routes and steps.

Using these new currencies isn't that difficult, but the system introduces some changes to the overall upgrade process. For instance, once a piece of equipment reaches the highest upgrade level of any rank (Explorer, Adventurer, Veteran, Champion, Hero, or Mythic) it won't need Flightstones to be upgraded. This is to allow players to upgrade their gear up to the highest level possible for all their characters instead of relying only on seasonal loot.

It's also important to use crests in a wise manner, as they are only used for one purpose. For instance it's best to make use of all your Whelpling-rank crests with the best gear you have available, and then keep Drake and Wyrm crests for the next batch of upgrades you're planning to create. This is especially applicable to rings and trinkets that fill multiple slots on the character, which can only be eligible to take advantage of the account-wide discount if all slots are full of high-quality equipment.
