How to Upgrade Items in Pokemon GO
Upgrade is one of the most prized items in Pokemon GO. It lets trainers transform Porygon into Porygon2 and allows them to advance in their Pokedex.
Although this item is rare, players can locate it by spinning the photo disc at a Pokestop or as a reward for special occasions. What does this item actually do?
Components
Upgrade components can be added to weapons, trinkets or gathering tools in order to give them an additional benefit. They are a crucial element in crafting and can be gathered through salvaging or purchased from vendors. They can also be found in the form of drops, whether from enemies or from item spheres. They can be used to upgrade weapons or armor with an upgrade slot.
To get the highest level of progress in the game, it is essential to use upgrade components to maximize the amount of experience gained by upgrading weapons and gear. Adding organic components to an upgraded item will increase the experience multiplier, while mechanical components will reduce it. The best combination is a high experience-multiplier organic component followed by a low-experience-multiplier mechanical component. This will maximize your experience and allow you to progress to the next level of weapon or equipment more accessible.
The upgrade process is complicated It's crucial to know how it works in order to maximize the benefits of your upgrades. The system operates by keeping a running total of experience for the component you're upgrading. Each component has an experience multiplier that can be negative or positive. When the total reaches the threshold then it's reset to zero.
The amount of experience gained from every upgrade component can be affected by the item's hidden rank and its experience multiplier. The higher-ranked items will be more difficult to upgrade, while lower-ranked items are simpler to obtain.
If a new version of the hardware is installed, it's important to remove all existing connections and fasteners that hold the old component in place. Keep them in an inventory tray for easy identification and safe-keeping. When the new hardware is installed, reconnect any cables or wires and connect the power supply to electrical power. Test the computer by turning it on. If everything is connected properly the computer should start normally. This is an important step to ensure that the new hardware is compatible with your existing systems and will function seamlessly.
Glyphs

Each glyph has a variety of values it can improve the substatus of and higher-rank Glyphs have higher-quality values. Make sure you choose wisely, as you can only upgrade Glyphs once. Glyphs are only available only once, and they'll disappear after you have used them on an item or artifact.

They can also be found on the Paragon Board and are usually worth the extra effort, but they can be hard to get.
You can find Glyphs in the Black Lion Chests or purchase them from the Trading Post. Certain glyphs are available for use only once, while others are permanent. They are a great choice for items that need to be re-rolled frequently. The Glyph of Hope, for instance, lets you increase the probability of acquiring a certain affix when you are enchanting items.
Certain glyphs may also be used to modify existing affixes. This is most common on boots, gloves and belts, which are is capable of holding four different affixes. The Glyph of Insight, for instance, changes the prefix to an experimental affix. This is a useful tool if you are looking for an excellent affix for the specific slot or wish to maximize the damage output.
Once you reach level 50, the structure of the game shifts dramatically. Instead of relying on the campaign, you'll have to navigate the complicated Paragon Board, Nightmare Dungeons and new grinds in order to ensure that your build is as perfect as you can get it.
The most effective glyphs are ones that correspond to your character's specialization, for example the Exploit Glyph which boosts damage to weak enemies. Control Glyph is another good glyph that can increase damage against enemies that are frozen, stunned or slow. Each symbol has a radius and the radius grows when you upgrade it. This makes glyphs the most effective way to improve your gear in the late game.
