World of Warcraft Item Upgrades
The upgrading of your items is an essential element of equipping your character. Upgrades boost the base damage and enhancements of items.
They also offer bonuses and enhancements. The Blacksmith is able to sell them to you.
Players can recycle any item by pressing the upgrade button on it. Every recycled item adds one level to the gauge for upgrading.
Weapons
When an item is upgraded, it gains an initial damage bonus and a scaling factor that influences other stats. The weapon can also gain a number of upgrade components, which provide additional attributes or effects and some even have distinct cosmetic effects. These upgrades can be added to weapons, armors trinkets, gathering tools, and trinkets. They generally require that the item has an upgrade slot and that it meets certain requirements. The upgrade component can be removed from the weapon, armor or trinket, but it is not replaced. (Except for legendary equipment). Upgrade components can be recovered with the help of a Black-Lion Salvage Kit or Ascended Salvage Tool, or by using a high-end salvage tool on the item the 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 done via the Gear Workbench's interaction menu. This can be repeated four times based on the weapon level.
When the weapon reaches its maximum upgrade it can be rebuilt to add additional effects and bonuses or to boost specific stats. All of these upgrades can be used simultaneously and the effects vary depending on how rare the weapon is.
There are two Blacksmiths in the game that can perform these upgrades: Blacksmith Hewg in the Church of Elleh hub area, and Smithing Master Iji in the Road to the Manor Site of Grace. Both require different upgrade materials: Smithing Stones for standard weapons and Somber Smithing Stones to alter the damage a weapon deals.
In general, it's best to improve your weapon's damage first. Then you can increase your armor defense, and then the secondary stats required by your build. In particular, it's common to see melee druids upgrading their weapon before any other gear, as this will increase DPS. This is particularly applicable to enchantments that increase a weapon's stats as well as damage.
Armor

They can also provide additional effects such as increased damage or cosmetic enhancements. Item Upgrades are available by crafting, purchasing from NPC vendors, through loot drops or as quest rewards.
Armor can be upgraded by visiting the Armorer NPC and spending appropriate currencies. The majority of armor upgrades to the next level following an upgrade. Most types of armor are upgradeable, however certain items (such as the armor used to start in Great Sky Island) cannot.
Most armor upgrades offer a small increase to the item's defense or strength. Certain upgrade components, however, could result in significant improvements in strength or defense. This is particularly the case when upgrading epic items.
Some upgrades provide specific abilities that can be activated while wearing armor. These abilities can be extremely beneficial in combat. For example they can boost the speed of attack or block. Certain upgrades provide passive effects that are useful, such as reducing damage while wearing armor or increasing the chance to dodge an attack.
Upgrades to armor could require several attempts, depending on the type of armor. If a player wishes to upgrade Steelclash armor to Dragonscale, then the first attempt will result in a brand new Dragonscale armor with an armor base defense of 59-67. The second attempt would result in a Dragonscale armor that has an initial defense range of 67-77.
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild lets players upgrade their armor sets to level 4. To do so, they must visit each of the four locations referred to as Great Fairy Fountains in the game. Each of these locations has a fair with a great power that can change the quality of an item of armor for you.
Contrary to popular belief it isn't a necessity in The Division 2. The fact of the matter is that certain armors provide significant increases in poison or curse, fire or magical damage reduction, making them invaluable for certain builds. There are other ways to increase the strength of armor apart from upgrading the armor, for instance using the engineer attribute to increase armor penetration or the challenger to reduce the weight of the entire armor.
Potion
A potion can be upgraded by putting it in an brewing stand in order to unlock new effects. The upgrade unlocks a brand new tier of potion effect, and can be repeated to get higher levels of potency.
