Upgrades to items are an essential element of enhancing your character. Upgrades increase the base damage and enchantments of items.

The upgrade button can be found on any item. Every item recycled adds a level to the gauge of upgrade.

Weapon

When a weapon is upgraded, it receives a base damage bonus, as well as a scaling factor which affects other stats. Some upgrade components have cosmetic effects, while others offer additional attributes. These upgrades can be added to weapons, armors trinkets, gathering tools, and trinkets. The majority of them require that the item has an upgrade slot and meets certain specifications. Once a weapon or armor piece is equipped with an upgrade component it, the item can be replaced with another, but the prior upgrade will be destroyed (except for legendary equipment and upgrades). Upgrade components can be found through the Black Lion Salvage Kit Ascended Salvage tool, or high-tier salvaging tool that is attached to an item.

A weapon can also be upgraded to include a Calibration attribute that increases certain stats, for example Weakspot damage or Crit Rate. This is accomplished through the Gear Workbench's interaction menu. Based on the level of the weapon it can be done up to four times.

Once the weapon has reached maximum upgrade, it can be rebuilt using a variety of different types of upgrades to increase certain stats or add bonuses and effects. All of these upgrades can be applied simultaneously and the effects vary depending on how rare the weapon is.

Two Blacksmiths can perform these upgrades in the game: Blacksmith Iji on the Road to the Manor Site of Grace and Smithing Master Hewg at the Church of Elleh hub.
