Upgrades

## About

Upgrading is a fundamental part of the experience on Atomix. Working to make your items stronger, durable, and better equipped with special perks and abilities will make the difference between subpar progress and over-the-top success!

Along with Enchants on items, you are also able to equip your player with Powerups that give you powerful abilities beyond just that of your enchants.

All upgrades on the server require Atoms, a tradeable upgrade currency that allows you to equip Enchants onto items and Powerups onto your player.

## Upgradeable Items

A majority of tools and gear on the server can be upgraded. Nevertheless, here is an exhaustive list of the items that can be upgraded and equipped with new enchantments.

To view which items can receive which enchantments, visit the Enchants page.

### **Upgrading Items**

Upgrading items is very straight forward and should make for a quick way to boost your level of play on the server. Follow the steps below to upgrade your items with new enchants:

```
**Step 1 -** Hold the item you wish to upgrade in your hand.

```

```
**Step 2 -** Type "/upgrade" to open up the corresponding upgrade menu.

```

```
**Step 3 -** Hover the upgrade you wish to equip your item with.

```

```
**Step 4 -** Click the enchant item in the menu to upgrade your item!

```

Upon upgrading your item, your Atoms will automatically be deducted from your balance and the enchant will be applied to the item.

**NOTE:** If you are unable to upgrade an item, hover the enchant you wish to upgrade and look at the bottom of the lore for the reason why!

#### **Increments Menu**

To speed up the rate at which you can upgrade items, certain Enchants come equipped with an increment menu that allows you to add or remove multiple levels of the enchant with one click.

To open the increment menu, use Shift + Left-Click:

### **Downgrading Items**

Downgrading items is just as simple as upgrading them! Instead of Left-Clicking to upgrade the item with +1 level of the enchant, simply Right-Click to remove 1 level of the enchant from the item.

If you wish to remove *all* enchantments from an item, you can use the Disenchanter menu.

#### **Disenchanter**

Collecting loot and harvesting it for Atoms is made much quicker and straight forward by using the Disenchanter menu. To open the menu, use the following command:

```
/disenchanter - opens a menu in which you can place items into to remove all of their enchantments.

```

Once you click the button to Disenchant, the Enchants will be removed from the item, and the Atoms will be refunded to your account at the corresponding refund rate for that specific enchant.

## Equipping Powerups

Upgrading your Powerups is very much like upgrading your items. Instead of applying Powerups to an item, you will be equipping them to your Powerup Bar.

Follow the steps below to apply a Powerup to your Powerup Bar:

```
**Step 1 -** Open the powerup hub using the "/poweruphub" command.

```

```
**Step 2 -** Select a category of powerups to equip.

```

```
**Step 3 -** Hover the powerup you wish to equip.

```

```
**Step 4 -** Click the powerup item you wish to equip to your powerup bar!

```

Like enchanting items, your Atoms will automatically be deducted from your balance and the powerup will be applied to your Powerup Bar.

### **Unequipping Powerups**

Like removing enchants from your items, unequipping powerups comes at the click of a button as well. To remove a powerup from your Powerup Bar, follow the steps below:

```
**Step 1 -** Open the powerup hub using the "/poweruphub" command.

```

```
**Step 2 -** Select a category of the powerup you wish to to unequip.

```

```
**Step 3 -** Hover the powerup you wish to unequip.

```

```
**Step 4 -** Right-Click the powerup item you wish to remove 1 level of the powerup.

```

```
**Step 5 -** Repeat Step 4 until your powerup is removed to your liking!
