How to Upgrade Items in Pokemon GO
Upgrade is among the most sought-after items in Pokemon GO. It allows trainers to evolve Porygon into Porygon2 and also gives them a chance to advance in their Pokedex.
While it is rare, players can locate it by spinning an image disc at a Pokestop, or as a reward during some special events. What does this item actually do?
Components
Upgrade components are things that can be incorporated into trinkets, weapons, or gathering tools to give an added bonus or effect when the item is utilized. They are an essential element in the crafting process. They can be gathered by salvaging or bought from vendors. They can also be found as drops, either from enemies or from item spheres. They can be used to upgrade armor or weapons with an upgrade slot.
To achieve the highest level of progress in the game, it is important to use upgrade components to gain the most experience gained by upgrading weapons and gear. The multiplier of experience for an upgraded item is increased when it is combined with organic components, whereas mechanical components decrease it. The best combination is a high experience-multiplier organic component followed by a low-experience-multiplier mechanical component. This will increase your experience gains and enable you to move up the levels of weapon or equipment a lot easier to achieve.
The upgrade system is complex It's crucial to know how it works to benefit the most from your upgrades. The system works by keeping an ongoing total of experience for the item you're upgrading. Each component has an experience multiplier that could be either positive or negative. When the total is at an amount that is certain, it is reset to zero.
The amount of experience gained from every upgrade component can be influenced by the item's hidden rank as well as its multiplier of experience. The higher-ranked items are more difficult to upgrade while the lower-ranked ones are easier to obtain.
It is crucial to take off all fasteners and connections that hold the old component. Save these for later in a parts tray for easy identification and safe-keeping. After the new hardware has been installed, re-connect any wires or cables and connect the power supply to the electrical power. Then check the computer by turning it on. If everything is connected correctly the computer should start up normally. This is an important step to ensure that the new hardware is compatible with your existing systems and will work seamlessly.
Glyphs
Glyphs are an excellent tool to make your gear better, but you need to be able to utilize them properly. Each glyph can be used to improve a substat, and the higher the rank of a glyph, the more powerful it will be. You can only upgrade a Glyph once, so pick wisely. Glyphs are also one-time-use, so they disappear after you use them on an object or artifact.
The best characters are those that improve the chance of rolling an affix with the desired tier. They are usually found on the top weapons, armor, and accessories. They can also be found on the Paragon Board and are usually worth the effort, but they may be difficult to locate.
Glyphs are available in the Black Lion Chests, or purchased from the Trading Post. Certain glyphs are available for use only once some are not, while others are permanently. These are a great choice for items that have to be used frequently. The Glyph of Hope allows you to increase your chances of getting an affix you want by enchanting an item.
Certain glyphs can also be used to change existing affixes. This is often seen on gloves and boots. Each can host four different affixes. The Glyph of Insight for example transforms a prefix into an experimental affix. This is a helpful tool for those who want an affix that is of high-quality in the specified slot or need to maximize damage output.
After you reach the age of 50, the game will change drastically. You'll no longer be able count on the campaign. Instead, you will be required to navigate the Paragon Board, Nightmare Dungeons and new grinds to optimize your build.
The best glyphs will be ones that are compatible with your character's type, such as the Exploit Glyph that increases damage to enemies who are vulnerable. Other useful glyphs include the Control Glyph, which boosts the damage dealt to enemies who are frozen, stunned, or slowed. Each symbol has a radius and the radius grows when you upgrade it. This makes glyphs the best method to upgrade your gear in the late game.
Reroll tokens
Reroll tokens are an upgrade item that lets players alter one of the attributes of an item. It is possible to do this within the item window by selecting an item and then clicking a green button that has circling arrows. The cost of an reroll is determined based on the rarity of the item.
Reroll tokens are available in the Mystery Box, as a rare drop from skulled creatures or purchased from the Trader. You can also obtain them through Event Items or by receiving them from other players. They can be used to reroll rings, armors, weapons and other items in increments of 2. Each reroll token allows players to roll for a new attribute which can be either higher or lower than the previous one.
The reroll token is not only used to upgrade rerolls, but can also be recycled to recycle items. Recycling an item can earn players a certain amount points, which will be added to the gauge of level for the item, depending on its popularity. This is a great way to dispose of old, unneeded equipment that hasn't been upgraded.
The rerolling token could be used to give the player a new weapon characteristic. These are shown to the player, who has the option to choose whether to accept them or not. The player is able to offer up to six items at a time, and the number of options increases as the item's value and rarity increases. This option is accessible through the Upgrade tab of the forge.
Reroll tokens can also be used to roll the set bonus of an item. It is applied if three or more items from the same set are incorporated to a unit. The set bonus can only be applied to units that belong to the same class. It is not applicable to other classes.
There are also a number of other upgrade items within the game that can be rerolled, such as the recipes. These items are not available in the shop or through Rerolls, but rather are transferred to the non-droppable Pool when players select an item on a Food Card that requires new ingredients or equipment. The reroll token can be used to reroll additional bonuses that these items offer however the base stats and level (including all upgrades) will remain the same.
Leveling
In the game, you are able to upgrade your equipment by using upgrades to your items. They can be created by obtaining the necessary ingredients from NPCs that can upgrade items located in major cities. After an item has been upgraded, its stats will be enhanced. Certain affixes can be changed. This can result in an increase in an item's ilvl.
When an item is upgraded it will have an icon of blue in its top-left corner. The item will also display a number of upgrades below its maximum level. The maximum level of the item will increase if there are more upgrades. Players can upgrade items as many times as they want. This will let them hit breakpoints on gears, which increase the chances of rerolling certain affixes.
Upgrades to items give players the ability to improve the level of their weapons, helms, and armor. The process involves the purchase of items which are then exchanged by the item upgrader NPC to earn currency. The upgrader will show a preview of the item's new status, and will accept either Happy Stars or Happy Tickets to complete the upgrade. The item used for materials will be destroyed. However the upgraded item will retain Item EXP to upgrade it further.
There is no way to guarantee that an Upgrade will appear however, it is a very low probability of appearing during spinning Pokestops or Gyms. Players can even use an Upgrade on an existing Porygon to evolve it into the form of a Porygon2, which will consume the item.
