Gear Upgrades

By this point, a lot of World of Warcraft players have done a great deal of gearing up during Season 1 of The War Within, but there are still a lot of walls being hit by players at the high end -- achievements with some silly requirements, absurd amounts of crests needed to craft the highest tier of crafted item, and overtly punitive crest losses from failing a Mythic+ timer.

There's so much to do with each weekly reset in The War Within that it can get a bit confusing, especially for returning or casual players.

Dragonflight patch 10.1 instituted a new upgrade system for gear in World of Warcraft and the upcoming patch 10.2 will be making some tweaks to the system.

WoW Dragonflight patch 10.1 added new gear and currencies you can earn from new activities and use in conjunction with each other to upgrade the gear you get, so you can do the activities at a higher level, earn more currency and gear, and then upgrade your gear again...you see how this cycle goes.

On the patch 8.3 PTR, a new item popped up in datamining that could allow players to add a socket to any piece of gear that does not already have any sockets.

Patch 8.2 brought us a lot of content, and it can be a little overwhelming figuring out what exactly you need to do to be ready for the new raid and what is more optional.

As we head to Nazjatar to fight Queen Azshara and save our planet, we're going to need to upgrade our necklace -- the Heart of Azeroth.

Recently, Blizzard issued a hotfix that changed the cost of Argus missions that reward Blood of Sargeras.
