How to Upgrade Items in Pokemon GO

Upgrade is one of the most sought-after items of Pokemon GO. It lets trainers evolve Porygon into Porygon2 and gives them the chance to advance in their Pokedex.

This item is rare but it is available by spinning a Photo Disk at a Pokestop, or as a prize at special events. But what exactly does this item upgrade actually do?

Components

Upgrade components are objects that can be slotted into trinkets, weapons, or gathering tools to give an attribute bonus or extra effect while the item is being utilized. They are an essential element in the process of crafting. They can be obtained through salvaging or purchased from vendors. You can also find them as drops, either from enemies or item spheres. They can be used to upgrade weapons or armor by using an upgrade slot.

To achieve the highest degree of advancement in the game, it is important to use upgrade components to maximize the amount of experience gained from upgrading weapons and equipment. Incorporating organic components into an upgraded item will increase its experience multiplier, whereas mechanical components will decrease it. The best combination is a high experience-multiplier organic component followed by a low-experience-multiplier mechanical component. This will maximize the experience you gain and make it easier to reach the next level.

It's crucial to understand how the upgrade system works to maximize the benefits of your upgrades. The system works by keeping an ongoing total of experience for the component you're upgrading. Each component has an experience multiplier that can be negative or positive. When the total is at a certain threshold, it is reset to zero.

In addition, the amount of experience gained from each upgrade component is influenced by the rank of the item that is upgraded and its experience multiplier. This means that the higher-ranked items are more difficult to upgrade, while less ranked items are easier to achieve.

When a new hardware upgrade is installed, it's essential to remove all existing connections and fasteners holding the old component in place. Save them in a parts tray to make identification and storage easier. When the new hardware is installed, reconnect any wires or cables, and connect the power supply to the electrical power. Test the computer by turning on. If everything is connected correctly, the computer should boot up normally. This is an important step to ensure that the new hardware is compatible with your current systems and will operate seamlessly.

Glyphs

Glyphs are a fantastic instrument to improve your equipment but you must understand how to use them. Each glyph has a range of values it can improve a substat by, and higher-rank Glyphs have more powerful values. Make sure you choose wisely, since you can only upgrade glyphs once. Glyphs can also be used only once, so they disappear after you have used them on an object or artifact.

The best glyphs are those that increase the chance of affixing an affix to the desired tier. These are often found on the most expensive weapons, armor and other accessories. They can also be found on the Paragon Board. They are worth the effort, however they aren't always easy to locate.

Glyphs can be found in the Black Lion Chests, or purchased at the Trading Post. Some glyphs can only be used once, while others will remain in place. They are excellent for items that must be rerolled frequently. The Glyph of Hope, for instance, lets you increase the likelihood of acquiring a particular affix when you are enchanting items.

Some glyphs can also be used to modify existing affixes. This is often seen on gloves and boots. Each can host four different affixes. The Glyph of Insight for example, turns a prefix in an experimental affix. This is a great tool to have if want to maximize the damage output or you want to ensure you get a top-quality affix for a particular slot.

Once you've reached level 50, the nature of the game changes dramatically. Instead of being a reliance on the campaign, you'll have to navigate the intricate Paragon Board, Nightmare Dungeons, and new grinds to ensure that your game is as perfect as you can get it.

The most effective glyphs will be those that match your character's specialization, for example the Exploit Glyph which increases damage to enemies who are vulnerable. Control Glyph is another good glyph that increases damage to enemies who are stunned, frozen, or slowed. Each glyph has a radius and the radius grows as you upgrade it. This makes glyphs a great option to upgrade your gear later in the game.

Reroll tokens

Reroll tokens are upgrade items that allow players to change an attribute on an item. You can do this from the item's window by selecting an item and clicking an orange button with circling arrows. The cost of the reroll depends on the item's rarity.

Reroll tokens are available in the Mystery Box, as a rare drop from skulled creatures, or purchased from the Trader. They can also be obtained through Event Items or by receiving them from other players. They can be used for rerolling rings, armors, weapons and other items by increments of 2. Each rerolling token gives players the opportunity to roll an attribute that can be more or less than the previous roll.

In addition to being able to upgrade rerolls Reroll tokens can also be used to recycle items. The rarity of the item determines the number of points players will receive for recycling it. This is a great way to get rid of old equipment that hasn't been upgraded.

The rerolling token may be used to give the player a new weapon characteristic. The player is able to accept or deny these traits. The player can offer up to six items at one time and the options expand as the item's rarity and level increases. This option is accessible through the Upgrade tab on the forge.

A reroll token can also be used to reroll the set bonus of an item that is triggered when three or more items from the same set are installed on the unit. The set bonus is only available to units that belong to the same class. It cannot be applied to other classes.

There are also a number of other upgrade items in the game which can be rerolled like the recipe items. These are not offered by the shop or reroll, but instead transferred to the Non-droppable Pool when players choose a Food Card that requires new Ingredients or Equipment. The reroll token can be used to reroll these extra bonuses, but the base stats (including all upgrades), and level will remain the same.
