World of Warcraft Item Upgrades Upgrades to an item are a way to increase the stats of an item Based on the type of upgrade it may increase an items Mark Level or Rarity and also boost other stats Upgrades to equipment in The War Within requires a specified number of Flightstones and Crests and each item comes with an upgrade track Each upgrade increases the cost of the following one by a specific amount Item Level The value of an items stats base increases as it is upgraded This value is the sum of an items leveledup perks attack magic attack and defense Upgrades can be expensive depending on who you hire and what you do This is due to the variety of perks that have to be changed in order to upgrade an item The level of an item is a commonly used measure of power and is visible on all item tooltips It also serves to determine a gating condition when waiting for dungeons scenarios and raids as well as to limit the amount of PvP gear that a player can wear since PvP is limited to a lower level Players can view their average level of items on their character sheet When deciding to purchase or sell equipment players can evaluate the levels of the item Its an indicator of the items condition and quality The level of an item can be used to evaluate items when looking at the inventory of a seller On PC you can view the item level by pressing ALT or using the left stick on XB1 or PS4 This will display the items full description including the ilvl It can also be located by hovering over an item with the mouse cursor and then typing itemlevel in chat There are a variety of theories on how the level of an item is determined One theory is that the item level is a numerical value derived from a formula that calculates how much an items stats are worth It considers the fact that different perks have different worth and that gems in sockets increase the value of the item overall This process can result in a calculated amount for the items ilvl which is usually close to the actual Blizzard level of the item This is not the only thing that affects the value of an item The degree of the area in which the item dropped can also alter its stats For instance it can add a level to the items haste or crit score This means that items dropped at higher levels will have more value than items dropped in lowerlevel instances Item Stats The stats of an item are a major component of what determines the value of an item for players The game uses a variety of them in various ways to encourage players to play with a variety of weapons and prevent one weapon from being the best The stat mods on a weapon boost the base stats These stat mods are then enhanced by a players level Upgrades to an item can boost its stats The cost of upgrades is determined by the rarity of the item An item that is white or grey for example will only be upgraded once and items with rare tiers may be upgraded multiple times at higher costs Another way to change the stats of an item is through affixes They are stat boosts which can be added by the player to an item The affixes can be used to give the item extra damage add a special capability to the item such as reviving dead or decreasing cooldowns or make the item unique by putting an exclusive name to the item All affixes are being rerolled right now by selecting them in the upgrade window and pressing the green button This procedure will cost the player a certain amount of gold and other items which can be used to add to the upgrade gauge in the same manner as other options for rerolling Players can choose to upgrade an item to specific stats or reroll affixes The possible stat ranges for an item are determined by the item level but every item is guaranteed to have at least one stat within the specified range unless it is a unique item or the result of a God roll from a raid boss Another thing that could change is the option to upgrade equipment without having to reroll the attaches or select which stats to increase But as with base equipment this would need to be done on a peritem basis and the item compare interface wouldnt show all possible stats either lost or gained at the same time Item Luck The Luck stat of a player boosts the chance of finding items the properties that are created by loot and the intensity of these properties However it doesnt directly affect damage or ability to upgrade items It merely gives players the possibility to obtain better equipment earlier in the game and is therefore more valuable in early game runs as opposed to later ones because most players value higher weapon scaling and defenses over damage gains In addition to influencing item discovery Luck also increases the probability of being successful when upgrading items using the Blacksmith This is not to be confused with the Blacksmiths overall upgrade chances that increase with each new level of item It is also possible to be increased with the use of antimaterials like the Scroll of Strength and a Jewel of Blessing Armor shields and weapons can spawn or be crafted with the Luck property which has the default value of 40 These items can be enhanced with golden ingots spined leather or oak boards depending on the type of material used to grant an additional 40 Luck or to boost the existing Luck of the item up to 140 Certain items such as the weapon with Hollowinfused components can also be equipped to increase the damage of any skill that causes damage by 5 item upgrades are available from the shop or made using the correct ingredients Item Failure Upgrades to items are expensive and not all upgrades will be successful However there are some cash shop items that allow players to increase their chance of success or stop them from losing an item in the event that the upgrade fails When you upgrade an item the success rate is displayed in the Honing UI The percentage indicates the probability of successful upgrading an item This can be increased by using Additional Materials or Special Materials The probability of success can only be increased by so much and the chance that an upgrade will fail cant exceed 100 The Luck of an item can also affect the success of an upgrade Every item has an average success rate of 25 and each item with Luck increases that chance by 5percent The upgrade overlays for items are rendered above the items in the inventory This may block enchantment effects as well as other effects If you wish to disable the upgrade overlays the config option decorationrenderUpgradeOverlays can be set to False in the Item Upgrader CORE client config
