Sharpening and improving equipment in Black Desert. Improving character and ship equipment How to improve equipment in The Witcher 3

A system for crafting and improving Artyom's equipment has appeared. Let's see how it works.

The hostile world of Metro Exodus constantly forces you to waste resources. Vital health kits, gas mask filters, and ammo are hard to come by, which means you'll need to create (craft) your own items from the materials you loot on your travels if you want to survive.

The developers at 4A have kept it simple to create, but there are all a few nuances and tricks to help you avoid wasting precious materials. Let's take a detailed look at how to create items, where to find components, and how to prioritize items for crafting.

What can you do in Metro Exodus

Every consumable in Metro Exodus is craftable, which means you can craft first aid kits, gas mask filters, throwables like grenades and knives, and ammo for all of your weapons.

There are four different types of conventional ammunition for firearms: for a pistol, for a machine gun, for a shotgun and for sniper rifle. Airguns have their own cartridges, as well as special options cartridges such as incendiary. You can make grenades, molotov cocktails, throwing knives and cans to distract enemies.

You can also upgrade your equipment - such as armor and helmet - in the world and deliver them to the workbench.

How to craft in Metro Exodus

There are two ways to craft items: you can open your backpack at any time, or you can interact with the workbench. If you use your backpack, then you can only craft first aid kits, gas mask filters, and ammo for your air guns, one of which you carry in the third weapon slot. If you want to craft ammo for your two regular weapons that you'll be using most of the time, as well as throwable items, you'll need a workbench.

Workbenches can only be found on Aurora, on the train that serves as your base, or in safe houses. To find safe houses, you will have to explore the landmarks marked with question marks on your map. Safe houses will be marked in green after they are discovered.

Whether you're crafting items from your backpack or a workbench, the interface is easy to navigate - you simply click the menu to highlight the item you want and press a key to create it. if you have necessary components, then the received items will be added to your inventory.

Just two crafting components

There are only two crafting components: materials, represented by a gear icon, and chemicals, represented by a chemical flask. You don't have to worry about the difference between the two, because most recipes call for a bit of both, and you'll find them in roughly equal amounts.

Where to find crafting components

You won't be able to miss them. They lie on shelves in buildings, on corpses in the middle of the road, around abandoned campfires - you'll find them anywhere that looks even remotely interesting.

However, they can be difficult to distinguish from other objects because they can look like old trash, so it's best to just look around for any likely locations. If the object can be assembled, you will be prompted to pick it up, which will give you between 1 and 10 components. It's hard to tell if you'll get materials or chemicals (or both) just by looking at the item ahead of time.

There are also special types of containers that you should always look for, and they will always have components, these are: small blue boxes and lockers that you can open.

There are almost always materials on corpses, so make sure you loot any enemies you kill. Don't try to loot monster corpses - you won't get any resources from them.

You should also inspect the weapons of the dead enemies. If there's ammo or upgrades there, you can pick them up, but if it's a duplicate of what you already have, you'll get components instead, which is very handy.

As a last resort, you can dismantle consumables into crafting components. You only get around 20% of the item's value, so only do this if you're desperate. It's usually more efficient to just explore the location.

What is preferable to craft

If you have a small resource pool (say less than 100 of each component), you should prioritize. First aid kits are extremely important. If you are in an area where you need to wear a gas mask, make sure you also have spare filters or you could die. It's good that you can make them from your backpack.

In the backpack you can only make ammo for your airgun. This ammo is cheap to make, but I would only recommend it if you're running out of ammo on your two main cannons, which are probably more powerful than the Tikhar. If you are well stocked with medkits and ammo, then save your resources because chances are you will need to make more medkits at some point.

• To save on ammo, take headshots - you'll kill enemies immediately, compared to four or five body shots.
• Avoid falling damage. Don't jump from anything if you're not sure, because you'll need to spend a first aid kit.
• If you're low on ammo, take a stealthy approach and conserve ammo. It's also safer, which means you'll use fewer first aid kits.
• Save throwable items. Generally, you won't need them in gunfights, and you'll want to save them up for random mini-boss fights in Metro Exodus. Molotovs will be especially useful.
• Move faster in places with poisonous gases. You'll likely have five minutes or less before you start to choke, so don't linger.

How to improve equipment

You can improve your equipment - body armor, gas mask, helmet, etc. - at the workplace. This does not cost resources, but first you need to find specific parts to improve in the game world.

For example, you can find ammo pockets for your vest, or armored glass for your helmet. These upgrades are unique, and you can only choose one: with the exception of, say, the Armored Glass Upgrade equipped at the same time as the Reinforced Helmet Upgrade.

When you encounter an upgrade, you will see a tooltip next to the icon of any item you are upgrading. These items can be found either during the main quests or at main points of interest such as bandit camps. After you get the upgrade part, you can upgrade your gear at any workbench.

And to effectively counter the enemy force. Let's see how exactly a character can provide himself with the most powerful equipment.

Upgrading the character's equipment

For weapons and armor, there are several ways to enhance that can be applied simultaneously:

• upgrade scrolls;
• Efenian cube;
• engravings;
• moon charms.

The equipment upgrade window opens either by right-clicking on the scroll, or by pressing the Equipment Upgrade button in the inventory. The first tab will allow you to improve the quality of the item, the second - to insert an engraving, the third - to cast a lunar charm.

12 item quality types

• useless item
• common item
• unusual item
• rare item
• unique item
• epic item
• legendary item
• relic
• wonder age item
• storytelling item
• legend age item
• subject of the era of myths

By using scrolls any player can improve the quality of their equipment, including jewelry. You can get them only through the game - using the profession "Printing". Crafting requires a shard of a certain type of true akhium and some parchment.

The improvement window shows the chances of a possible outcome after the operation. Depending on the type of item and scroll, you can increase the quality by 1 or 2 points, break the item (Relic rank and above), lower its quality, or leave everything unchanged. A catalyst may help a little to a successful ending.

You can also improve your equipment with efen cube. You can buy it from a merchant of useful little things for 1 gold coin or in the Soyuz Daru store.

With this item, you can improve the main characteristics of equipment (for weapons, this is attack power, spell power, or healing efficiency, for armor, resistance and defense) up to 9%. The value is chosen randomly. When upgraded with scrolls, the effect remains, you can cancel it with the Ephen Prism, which is sold in the game store, and then try your luck with the cube again.

No less interesting and engraving, which give a bonus to certain characteristics of the character, such as tactical training, blocking, attack power, and many others. The higher the quality of the equipment, the more slots for engraving are available. For example, a weapon of uncommon rank has 1 slot, a relic has 6 slots. Please note that insertion may fail.

Lunar Enchantment, in turn, are divided into two types. The first allows you to increase the main characteristics: strength, agility, endurance, fortitude, intelligence.

With the help of the second type of runes, you can add a special property to the equipment, for example, increase the chance of a critical hit or increase the character’s movement speed. Different runes of this type are suitable only for a certain type of armor, so you will have to choose the right one very carefully. In addition, it is impossible to insert both types of stones at the same time into one thing.

A skilled decorator can create engravings, and an experienced alchemist can create moonstones. The second option to obtain such items is to purchase for honor points from the quartermaster.

Upgrading the ship's equipment

Refitting ships is one of the most important elements of the game for those who love naval battles. The installed elements affect not only the appearance of the vessel, but also its parameters: health, stability, weight, ramming ability, side protection, movement speed, turning speed and buoyancy.

Equipment can either improve or degrade certain characteristics: for example, when using a sail that allows you to move faster, you will have to sacrifice maneuverability, and stronger masts will weigh more. All equipment varies in quality: from ordinary to the era of myths. Need to improve Shipbuilder's Scrolls, obtained by destroying enemy ships, monsters in the Storm over the Sea event, and some bosses.

In order to endow any item with new unique properties, Minecraft players resort to enchantment. This is a very important and interesting addition added by the developers to the main game. The Minecraft Enchantment mod allows you to cast spells on useful items such as weapons, armor or tools, increasing their strength and durability. We will talk about how to master the skills of magic in today's article.

Enchanting in Minecraft

This process can seem complicated, especially if the player is encountering it for the first time and trying to figure it out on their own. Therefore, we suggest that you familiarize yourself with our tips in order to spend a minimum amount of time and effort on learning the art of enchantment.

Spells are cast in a completely random way, however, by gaining a little experience and pumping skill, you can easily open several powerful methods. The enchantment table is the main item with which you can create magic. How to build it can be found in the next chapter.

Preparing for Enchanting: Building a Table

To build this important item, you need to get one book, two diamonds and four obsidian ingots.

• The book is made from one piece of leather and three sheets of paper. Another way is to destroy the bookshelves in the NPC libraries.
• For diamonds, it is best to go to the deposits of diamond ore, armed with an iron pickaxe (preferably two). It is worth remembering that this is one of the rarest ores in Minecraft, so you can only find it deep underground. Sometimes diamonds can fall out of random chests, so you need to look both ways.
• To mine obsidian, you have to craft a diamond pickaxe. To find the ore, it is not necessary to go to the lower levels, just dig to the lava and fill it with water.

Having received all the necessary items, you can craft an enchantment table. In order to get the best effect from future witchcraft, it is recommended to furnish the table with bookshelves. This is done in order to increase the level of items that will be enchanted. The process of casting spells is accompanied by a beautiful animation: nearby bookshelves release magical runes that carry a special energy. It is noteworthy that the enchantment book (in Minecraft, this is the name of the book that is placed on the magic table) always turns towards the player.

A little tip: to access absolutely any spells, we recommend building three tables at once and arranging them in a certain order - place one between the bookshelves, the second one next to them, and the last one to be placed somewhere to the side.

Bookshelf Secrets

We have already mentioned that in order to get the most powerful spells, you need to furnish the table with books. In total, fifteen shelves are required. They should be located two blocks away from the table, the level may be the same or slightly higher than the base. Only the correct placement will activate the runic animation we talked about above.

Details to pay attention to:

• The action of the bookshelves can be blocked by snow or torches. It is worth considering this feature when it comes to low-level.
• To create a shelf, you will need three books and six blocks of wood. All material is placed in the cells of the workbench.

Level 30

The strongest enchantment in Minecraft only works at level 30. You can gain experience by killing hostile mobs, mining, smelting metal and cooking. If there is no time to wait until the next monster attacks you, and you really want to pump, then you should try the following:

• Can be summoned hostile mod independently - a spawner is used for this.
• You can score points for pumping by breeding and killing pets. The best option chickens will become - they eat simple seeds and do not have a large supply of health.
• Having received a special potion that gives the character fire resistance, you can go to the Lower World. This location also gives a lot of room for fast pumping.

An interesting detail of enchantment in Minecraft: a powerful spell takes three levels from the character. The easiest way is to get to the thirtieth level right away, so that later you can spend only 168 experience points. If you conjure at the thirty-third level, then the number of lost points will increase to 216, which is not very profitable.

Enchanting Instructions

First you need to put one or another object in the center of the table. Due to the element of randomness, some items have a much higher chance of getting high level enchantments. This includes gold leather armor and wooden tools.

The next step is to add lapis lazuli. After the release of Minecraft 1.8, the use of this mineral became necessary for every spell. Lapis lazuli can be found underground and is more common than diamonds.

Hover your mouse over an item.

Perform the enchantment by choosing one of the options on the screen. Each item has three different upgrades.

To improve the received enchanted item, you can use the anvil. In order to build it, you will need iron in the form of three blocks and four ingots. With the help of the anvil, you can not only improve items, but also combine them with each other. Before that, you should make sure that their charms are compatible.

Enchanted items will be very useful when exploring the Nether.

If you do not want to lose experience points with each spell, you should contact the village priest. For enchanted items you will have to pay with emeralds.

Enchanting commands in Minecraft cannot be the same. If you combine "Defense 1" with "Defense 2", then only "Defense 2" will remain as a result, since its level is much higher. When you combine "Protection 2" and "Protection 3" you get "Protection 3", and so on.

Only one damage spell can be cast on a sword. Armor cannot have multiple enchantments at the same time with the name "Protection". For tools, there is also a restriction: it is forbidden to use the "Silk Touch" and "Luck" at the same time.

If you have already reached crafting diamond sword- you should be aware that this is not the final unit in the range of melee weapons. By building an enchanting table, you can improve the performance of almost any sword. The only exceptions are swords dropped from zombie pigmen - they can be enchanted with a 20% chance. Enchanting a weapon allows you to increase its power and add various positive effects. And the enchanted sword shines and shimmers beautifully.

The enchantment table is crafted on a workbench. To create it, you need 4 blocks of obsidian, 2 diamonds and a book. Three obsidian blocks are located in the bottom row of the crafting grid, the fourth one is in the middle of the second row. Two diamonds are set on the sides of the fourth block. A book is placed above the fourth block of obsidian.
An enchanting table is best placed near a bookcase - this will allow you to enchant armor and tools more strongly.

For,to enchant a sword in minecraft, you must place it in the cell of the enchanting table. After that, three different options enchantments generated randomly. Next to each enchantment option, the cost of the action in experience levels will be indicated. When enchanting, experience is not obtained, but is spent, used in the form game currency– the higher your level of experience, the cooler you can!!! Enchant a sword in Minecraft. You can choose any suitable enchantment option, if you have enough experience for it, and thereby give the sword a given set of properties. The level affects what enchantments can be obtained. Enchantments are multi-level, and with an increase in the cost of an enchantment, the likelihood of obtaining a more valuable sword increases. As a rule, the most expensive item of the enchantment options will allow you to give the sword the best combination of enchantments.

The maximum experience level that a sword can be enchanted to in Minecraft is increased by placing an enchanting table one block away from a bookcase. There is a formula according to which the level of enchantment increases with increasing bookcases around the table, but works only up to the 15th cabinet. There must not be any blocks or objects between the table and the cabinet - not even snow or torches, otherwise the corresponding block will not give a bonus to spells.

Enchant Bonuses and Effects

How to enchant a sword in Minecraft for the desired effect? Unfortunately, this can only be achieved by repeatedly placing the sword in the cell of the enchanting table, since enchantments are generated randomly.

There are six types of enchantment for the sword.- three combat and three special. Combat spells increase damage against mobs - the "sharpness" spell spreads its effect on all monsters, "celestial punishment" falls on all varieties of zombies and skeletons, and "arthropod scourge" deals additional damage to spiders, cave spiders and silverfish. The additional damage is determined randomly on each hit. These three spells are mutually incompatible. All three types of combat enchantments swing up to level 5. A level 5 "sharpness" enchantment can only be cast on a golden sword using a table, however, two identical swords of any material with a level 4 "sharpness" can be forged, thus obtaining a sword with a "sharpness" level 5.

Special enchantments give additional effects when using an enchanted sword in combat. "Knockback", of course, knocks back mobs when they are hit. The Aspect of Fire sets the victim on fire. This, by the way, is very convenient during the mass slaughter of animals on the farm - instead of raw meat, fried meat immediately drops, there is no need to spend resources on cooking. Thanks to the looting enchantment, you can significantly increase the drop from mobs, and there is also a high probability of a rare drop. "Aspect of Fire" and "Knockback" swing to the second level, "looting" has three levels of pumping.

Enchanting Difficulties

How to enchant a sword in Minecraft correctly? The game has a certain algorithm for working with the enchantment table. Without going into technical details, it is worth noting that the base enchantment points are equal to the number of experience points spent on the process. To this are added bonuses from bookcases.

The imposition of certain enchantments depends on the availability of the required number of enchantment points. If you have a certain amount of them, enough to cast two or more types of enchantment, then the enchantment will be more likely to be enchanted by that spell, which has a greater so-called "weight". The most “heavy”, and therefore the most likely when trying to enchant a sword in Minecraft, is “sharpness”, which has a “weight” of 10. “Heavenly punishment”, “arthropod scourge” and “rejection” weigh 5 units each, and the “fire aspect” and "looting" - 2 units each.

A sword in Minecraft can be enchanted repeatedly using re-enchantment. If there is a sufficient amount of experience, the sword is enchanted, following the above algorithm, to the maximum possible level. This does not mean that the sword will immediately be enchanted, for example, with level 5 "sharpness" - there is a possibility of this, but most likely, two or more different enchantments will be applied to the sword.

In the English-language segment of the Internet, there are a large number of detailed enchantment tables, a calculator for the likelihood of enchanting, and other useful things.

After the implementation of the trading mechanism in the game, it became possible to enchant a sword in Minecraft for a certain price from the villagers.

The ability to enchant in Minecraft gives you many benefits. You can make your weapons stronger, your armor stronger, and your tools more efficient. How to enchant things in Minecraft, and what is needed for this? Now we will understand.

What you need to enchant things in Minecraft

• Enchanting table;
• The item you want to enchant (weapon, armor, tools, book);
• Experience levels.

First you need to make an enchantment table. The scheme of its creation looks like this:

Where K is a book, A is a diamond, O is an obsidian.

• sword from any material;
• tools from any material (axe, pickaxe, shovel);
• armor made of any material (boots, pants, bib, helmet);
• books.

The price of enchanting things in Minecraft is experience. It can be obtained by killing monsters, mining and smelting ore. Also experience is given for cooking, fishing and animal breeding or directly from experience jars that can be negotiated with villagers. To enchant one item, you may need a level from one to thirty.

Enchanting process

Set the table and click on it with the right mouse button. The enchantment screen will appear. Put the item in a special slot under the image of the book. Three will appear on the right possible options enchantment, where the green number is the price for this enchantment in levels. If you are not satisfied with the set of proposed options, you can remove the item and reinstall it in the slot. Then the offered enchantments will be randomly replaced with others. Enchant names are encrypted, so the result is random.

Increasing Spell Power

On the table, you can make an enchantment at a price from the first to the eighth level, this is not the strongest enchantment. The table can be reinforced with bookshelves. For maximum efficiency, you will need fifteen blocks of bookshelves. Arrange them around the table through one empty block so that letters begin to fly from the bookshelves to the table. If you want to reduce the level of the offered enchantments, it is enough to place a torch or any other block between the table and the bookshelf.

enchanted books

On the enchanting table, in addition to equipment, you can enchant a book. Books are used to carry and store charms. For example, if right now you do not have the necessary sword and you are afraid of losing levels, you can enchant a book and put it in a chest. Also, the book can be useful if you need to put specific, rather than random, enchantments on an item.

The transfer of enchantment from a book to an object is carried out on an anvil. Place the item in the left slot and the book in the right slot. The transfer will cost a few extra levels. With the help of books, you can enchant things that are not available on the table, or cast enchantments that are not available for this type of thing. For example, you can apply the "Indestructible" property to a bow, sword, armor, fishing rod, lighter, scissors, and hoe.

Now you know how to enchant in Minecraft and use enchanted books.

Every day, gamers discover something new and interesting for themselves in Minecraft. For example, an enchantment that will not only enhance any of your equipment and give it unique qualities. It will also help in the battle with the enders or in the last battle with the dragon. Why not speed up the learning process with our article?

To enchant an item, you need a lot of experience, which you can “stuff” by digging ore, killing monsters, or farming. The second thing you need is ultramarine, which is a product of lapis lazuli mining and is not a big shortage. And the third is an enchantment table, which is crafted from two diamonds, one book and four blocks of obsidian. To make it, first open the workbench table, then place obsidian blocks in all three lower ones, as well as the central one. On two sides you need to place one diamond each, and put a book exactly on top of the center. Useful advice: If you want the enchantment to become stronger, place bookshelves next to the table. They are crafted from six blocks of any wood and three books. To simplify perception, the picture below shows the schemes for creating objects. After you have crafted everything you need and gained experience, go to the enchantment table and right-click on it - a new menu will open. On the left you will see a cell where you should place armor, swords and bows, picks, shovels and axes made from any material, as well as a fishing rod, below you will see your inventory window. Three different enchantment options will appear on the right, each with a cost in experience levels. After choosing the one you want, click on it. The item that comes out will flicker magenta.

Now let's talk about how to improve the quality of the enchantment. First, it is worthwhile to properly place the bookshelves. They need to be placed one block from the table itself in a circle. If their number is more than fifteen, the maximum level of enchantment will become available to you - the thirtieth. Secondly, remove the snow cover or torches between the bookshelves and the table, extra blocks can "turn off" the cabinets and lower the enchantment level. Thirdly, if the enchantment you cast didn't suit you, you can re-enchant the item from a villager for emeralds.

There are other ways to enchant, but this requires an enchanted book. It can be found in various treasuries, fortresses, abandoned mines or a temple in the desert. It will also be possible to craft it, like any item in the second paragraph. Also, you will need an anvil. So step up to her and press right button mouse to open a window with two empty cells. In the left place the item of equipment, and in the right - the book itself, while the latter will be destroyed. The anvil is quite expensive to craft. To make it, you will need four iron ingots and three blocks of iron, in other words, you will have to wave a pickaxe. Now open the crafting menu of the workbench and place an iron block on the top cells, do the same with the bottom row and one central slot.

We hope that you will not have problems with the ability to enchant items, as this is one of the main options for improving armor and weapons in Minecraft.

The legendary series of books by A. Sapkowski "The Witcher" about the adventures of a monster hunter has long acquired an equally legendary line of games. In 2015, the last part of the series, Witcher 3, was released: Wild Hunt. She not only ended the story of the adventures of the White Wolf, but also became one of the most iconic games of recent years.

Even today, it is actively played due to the huge amount of content, non-linearities and a fascinating story. If you have not touched this masterpiece, then it's time to buy. If you've been playing for a while, then you're probably wondering the most interesting question: how to improve equipment? Let's figure it out.

What equipment can be upgraded in The Witcher 3?

The art of hunting ghouls, vampires, werewolves and other monsters requires you to constantly improve your equipment. In the game, in addition to the usual knightly armor and various things, there is witchcraft equipment - unique armor and weapons designed specifically for hunters. There are 6 equipment schools in total:

• Snake;
• Griffin;
• Manticore;
• Bear;
• Wolf.

They differ appearance, characteristics, bonuses and so on. But the process itself, how to improve equipment in The Witcher 3, is identical for everyone: finding a recipe, collecting ingredients, contacting a blacksmith (swordsman or armorer). Almost all types of equipment have several levels, the maximum of which is grandmaster.

Gear Upgrades in The Witcher 3

We got it right in the schools. You know that there are the following types of equipment: boots, armor, gloves, pants, two swords. Now we need to figure out how to improve witcher equipment in The Witcher 3. The procedure is always the same:

• find a recipe (most often found in some abandoned castles or other places that you can learn about from merchants);
• collect the ingredients;
• place an order with the blacksmith.

At the same time, remember that in order to upgrade a weapon or armor to the next level, you must have a copy of the equipment of the previous level. In addition, do not forget about Geralt himself. Once you make new equipment, you will only be able to wear it if you match the level. And if not enough, how to raise the level? Complete side missions.
