10 Unexpected Item Upgrade Tips

Throne and Liberty Gear Upgrades

Upgrades can sometimes increase the power of a piece and at times even add additional features. The value of these upgrades is determined by the levels of gear, their requirements, and the number of random augmentations can be applied.

The elite racial Shield Razortail for instance, is frequently upgraded to enhance its lightning absorption capability in PvP, and/or to provide additional defenses to missile-based designs in the PvM. This makes it more tradeable over the unupgraded version.

Reroll Tokens

Reroll tokens allow you to reroll an item you have acquired, such as armor, weapon or rings. The item is replaced by another of the same kind, but with different benefits. Reroll tokens are a cost-effective option to upgrade equipment. However, they do not retain the quality of the original item and any resources wasted will not be refunded.

The surviving players can acquire Reroll tokens in a variety of ways, including the Mistery Box and rare drops from skulled creatures. They can also be found in crates and chests, or purchase them from the store for $150 each. Reroll tokens can be used to alter the attributes of a piece equipment, for example increasing the damage it can cause.

Players can roll equipment with three aspects: physical power, spell power and health. Upgrades to physical power can increase the damage caused by weapons and melee attack, while upgrades to spell power increase the damage of mage attacks and the ring. Health upgrades give players an additional level of health.

Three types of reroll tokens are available in three categories: upgrade rare, legendary and rare. Each of these upgrades the item upgrade to higher quality. To make them, you'll need an upgrade level token to reroll. Upgrades require a regular item. Rare upgrades require items that are either unique or legendary. Legendary upgrades require three legendary pieces.

In contrast to other special tokens and markers that are placed on action spaces the reroll marker stays on the spot until the next success result is repeated. This allows you to avoid wasting upgrades.

Blueprints are envelopes that appear at the start of each Preparation phase. They can be opened using Interact by grabbing on to them. When they are opened, they show a description and icon for the Ingredient or Appliance. The restaurant's shop can swap blueprints for a new appliance or ingredient for a small amount.

This means that blueprints can be moved between the Staple Pool (which is the default pool) and the Non-staple Pool during a run. This affects which blueprints the restaurant's shop offers for rerolls and which are available in the Non-droppable Pool.

Growthstones

In Throne and Liberty, growth stones can be used to improve weapons, armor and other accessories. These are special stones that boost an item's level by increasing its stats and abilities. These items can be found by visiting Equipment Enchanting NPCs in the major towns. Contract Coin Merchants will sell them for a fee. These stones can also be obtained by players who complete daily contracts.

To upgrade gear, the player must first locate the item then click the "level up button". The menu will appear that shows the item's current status and what it will be after being leveled up, along with the required amount of Growth Stones to do so. The number of Growth Stones needed to upgrade a piece depends on its rarity. Typically, rare (blue) weapons require more than one green Growth Stone to reach their next level, while uncommon armor requires a single green or blue Growth Stone.

After deciding what to upgrade, players need to select the number of green Growth Stones they wish to use and pay the corresponding cost. When the requirements are satisfied, the user can then click on the upgrade button to apply the Growth Stones to the item. This will raise the item's level by a certain percentage. The upgrade process can last from a few seconds to several minutes, depending on the rarity of the item.

The upgrade process also is risk-free, and does not impact the longevity of the item. This makes the system an excellent way for players to get an advantage in combat without putting a strain on their bank accounts. Clicking on the "transfer tab", players can also transfer the experience and progression of an upgraded item onto a new piece of gear.

New players may find it difficult to obtain Growth Stones. However, there are many ways to acquire these stones, such as contract completion and purchasing them from the Contract Coin Merchant, defeating Abyssal Contract enemies, collecting them from the Equipment Stone Seal Book, or getting them from the reward chests of the Ancient Arena season. Additionally, players can take apart the higher-level Growth Stones to create multiple lower-level ones.

Leveling

Leveling is a feature that lets players increase the base stats of weapons armor, helms and trinkets. The Upgrade Station lets you combine an item with upgrade materials, and also pay a cost in Happy Tickets or Happy Stars. The process will use up the upgrade materials and give the item an upgrade level, giving the item an additional boost in that particular area. The process will continue until the item is at its highest level.

Items with upgraded stats will be displayed as a blue icon next to their slot. Contrary to enchantments upgrade components do not stack with each other, but can only be added to one item at a time. Each upgrade component will require the purchase of a certain amount of items and a minimum equipment level.

The Upgrade Station comes with two slots: the left is where players can place an item to be upgraded, and the right slot shows a preview of what the equipment will look like when it reaches its next level. Pressing the yellow arrow after is a player has enough resources will begin the upgrade process.

A piece of gear can be upgraded up to five times. Each time it is upgraded the base stats of an item will be increased by an amount of. The highest level for an item is 19.

When an item reaches its maximum level that it can no longer have the option of upgrading. When an item reaches a specific upgrade track (e.g. Veteran or Explorer), upgrades to the track will be offered at discounted prices.

Upgrade components are a form of equipment that is able to be inserted into weapons, armors trinkets, gathering tools and other trinkets to provide an additional benefit or bonus while the equipment is in use. They can be bought through vendors, looted or obtained through questing. They can also be traded between players. Upgrade components can be replaced with new ones, however doing so will damage the previous upgrade, excluding for glyphs, which can be removed and replaced freely.

Requirements

Upgrades to items give players the ability to boost certain attributes of armor and weapons that they currently own. The requirements to upgrade an item vary depending on its type however, you'll generally require Dilithium and an amount of Upgrade Tokens.

The upgrade items can be used to make sets and weapons for extra effects or a higher quality item. These upgrades can be gotten through a variety of sources in the game, including through crafting, purchased at the Trading Post or karma vendors or looted from bosses and raids, or dropped from dungeons. Once an upgrade component has been inserted into an item, it cannot be removed and substituted without restriction, however glyphs placed in gathering tools can be swapped out without restriction.

Upgrades to an item can increase its Mark Level and/or Rarity. Some upgrade components come with additional modifiers that can improve the item's stats.

The upgrade to the helm "Foundation of the Sun" for instance, increases the base defense and gives an additional 20% chance to block. The dps "Wildfire", however increases damage from weapons.

Upgrades can be beneficial to certain items, but they are not because they increase stats. They are more valuable for the players when they get a perfect roll. For instance, a perfectly rolled 200/6 504 armor set piece is highly valued in the melee PvP community and could be worth 20-50x the non-upp'd version.

The game will highlight the requirements when you select the upgrade component that goes into the item. The game will display the required requirements when you select an upgrade component to slot into an Best item upgrade.

The game will place an item upgrading in your inventory when you have fulfilled the requirements for an upgrade. The progress bar will then update to show you how far to completing the upgrade. You can also check the status of an upgrade by going to any item upgrader NPC.
