Pokemon GO Upgrade Items and Components
A special item can be used to transform certain Pokemon. The Upgrade can be obtained by spinning a photo disc and can be offered as a reward in Pokemon GO events.
Upgrades can be used on armors, weapons trinkets, weapons, and gathering tools in order to raise their item level. The upgrade costs Flightstones or crests, based on the kind of item.
Upgrade components
Upgrade components can be added to trinkets, armors, weapons and gathering tools in order to provide attributes or other bonuses while using the equipment. Upgrade components are only available on equipment with an upgrade slot. Most upgrade components also require that the item being upgraded is at a certain level. Some upgrade items have special visual effects that appear when they are applied. Upgrade components can be obtained by crafting, purchased from karma merchants or traded with other players on the Trading Post or used to repair equipment, or acquired as rewards during games.
A variety of upgrade components are available, each providing a different bonus. Universal upgrades like gems and inscriptions are able to be applied to any type of equipment. They provide smaller bonuses than other types of upgrade component. Infusions are able to be used on legendary and non-amulet items, while enrichments are able to be used on back equipment that has been ascended. Injecting an upgrade component will cause the destruction of the previous upgrade. The exceptions are glyphs (which can only be used in gathering tools) and enchantments, which are able to be removed and put back in.
Insignias or enchantments, as well as prefix/suffix upgrades will appear in the hover display of the item and they will be added to the equipment's name (e.g. the word Radiant Insignia would change the name to Radiant Tyrian Armor). The tooltip of an item will show the number of upgrade components that have been added to it.
Glyphs
Glyphs are special characters that can be added into an OpenType font to add decorative or functional elements, like ligatures and ornaments, fractions, swashes registered trademark symbols, and ellipses. The Glyphs Panel lets you add and view these unique characters, along with regular symbols like em and en dashes as in registered trademark symbols.
Each Glyph gives a character a boost in primary stats. The glyph can also have up to four secondary stats that affect its radius on your Paragon Board. Secondary Stats are a percentage increase that is multiplied by other bonuses, excluding Speed Glyphs that directly increase the hero’s speed.
The Glyphs in your inventory can be activated by selecting them, and then clicking the "enchant" button. This will display a window with the Glyphs available to you. Be aware that only the correct type of Glyph can be applied to the item you are looking for and each weapon, piece of jewelry or armor piece may have an array of different Glyphs.
You can upgrade your Glyphs by finishing Tree of Whisper Quests or Nightmare Dungeons. The more difficult a dungeon is, the more Glyph experience you will gain. Once a Glyph has reached the level 15 it is able to be upgraded using the Glyph Upgrade Altar. The Paragon Board's radius increases by one node every 15 levels that a Glyph is upgraded.
Once a Glyph has reached the desired level, it is possible to activate it. Select it and click the "enchant button". The resulting glyph will offer its stated bonus and will also boost all the other nodes within its radius on the Paragon Board. It's crucial to place glyphs in the best locations to benefit your build, and that is why it's a good idea to prioritize Magic Glyphs early on. Rare glyphs could also provide double bonus if certain conditions can be met.
If you're having difficulty finding a particular glyph, click the cycle widget on the Glyphs panel to show the panel in a number of views. Each view will display the Glyphs using a different font. You can narrow down the selection of glyphs you want to see by selecting an option below "Entire Font". For example, punctuation only displays punctuation glyphs. Math Symbols restricts the choices to mathematical symbols.
Rerolling
Rerolling involves creating an account on a different account to increase your chances of acquiring a character or weapon you want. This can be done to help you level up faster or to get better loot, like the best weapon for your current character. Many players will reroll until they have the characters they like, regardless of their power. It could be that they like the design or the personality of the character.
When you reroll, it is important be sure that the changes you're making are clear. You should check locally whether the patch is approved by pre-commit and run a Core dev test. You should also upload the patch to an issue by using an unmodified diff (see What is an interdiff? ).
item upgrading can take days or even weeks to complete, based on your luck. To save time avoid enemy camps that are optional during this period. It is also recommended to avoid repeating quests which can be completed later in the game. This can save you time and energy.
Another crucial aspect to remember when rerolling is to make sure you are aware of the upgrade system. There are a variety of ways to boost your character's strength and appearance. Upgrades, rerolling characters and upgrading weapons are all options. It is also crucial to be aware of the limitations of the system.
Rerolling might not be necessary however it can be a way to increase your chances of getting a certain character or weapon. It can be helpful when you're trying to find the best character to play or if you're looking to test different builds and play styles.
Sets
A set is a collection of objects with common-2 attributes (like the number of eggs in a dozen or members of a class). Sets permit operations like intersection, union and distinction.
Upgrades can make a set better than it was before. For weapons and armor, this means it gains a higher base defense value, a lower strength requirement and a lower amount of requirement.
Upgrades can bring items that are popular from single sets up to the same level as those in higher-level sets. For example, upgrading Guillaume's Face Helm to Elite Spired Helm increases the defense from 217 to 321 while also reducing the strength requirement and level requirement to a more manageable range.
However it's important to remember that not all set items are candidates for upgrading. Some sets, like the FB Sorc Whistan's Shield, a spec's item or Naj's Puzzler staff are already exceptional and elite in their own right and do not require any upgrades. On the other hand, some items that are BiS and are used frequently (like Goldwrap) may benefit by being upgraded to boost their stats even more. For these kinds of items, it may be worth the cost to upp them.
