- All upgrades are on one page: Alt+B, main page, the Upgrades row, the "Open" button.
- Grade weapons and armor grow through levels Lv1-Lv5. Each upgrade gives the item of the next level and keeps the enchant.
- You enter a new grade at Lv1 with +0. Moirai, Vesper and Legendary need the Lv5 item of the previous grade, Dynasty needs a retail S grade weapon or armor. Details are in the article "Gear grades: Dynasty, Moirai, Vesper, Legendary".
- Talismans, Pendant, Bracelet, Agathion and slot items (Circlet, Cloak, Belt, Shirt) are upgraded in their own sections.
- The upgrade window shows how much of each material you need. The numbers change with the balance, so they are not listed here.

Page sections
| Section | What you upgrade | Buttons |
|---|---|---|
 Weapons | grade weapons, levels Lv1-Lv5 | for every grade: "Tier entry", "Exchange", "Upgrade" |
 Armor | grade armor, levels Lv1-Lv5 | for every grade: "Tier entry", "Exchange", "Upgrade" |
 Artifacts | Aden, Speed, Eva, Authority, Baium talismans, Pendant, Bracelet, Agathion, Venir, Hellbound, Epic jewelry | "Open" for every kind. "D-S exchange" trades a set of old world Blessed Scrolls for a regular enchant scroll of the current grade |
 Slots | Circlet, Cloak, Belt, Shirt | by item kind: "Simple", "Blessed", "Ancient". "Enchant" opens the scrolls |
 Craft | craft exchanges, slot scrolls, Stable scrolls, Epic belt, Greater Healing Potion | "Open" |
"Tier entry" gives Lv1 of a new grade. "Upgrade" raises an item to the next level: Lv2-Lv5. "Exchange" swaps the type of an item for another type of the same grade and level for Adena and adds no power.
What an upgrade needs

Lv5 opens on day 5 of the grade week and also needs the grade Core (for example, Core: Dynasty) and an old world craft material (for example, Mithril Alloy). Instance bosses drop the grade Core. The Upgrade Recipe limit is shared by the account: all characters of the account split it.
