From Dave: Hey all, I wanted to clarify something that I misspoke about. For many T5 named items, there is no need to upgrade them with umbral shards before the expansion. Any named items that we have updated to drop at GS625 post-expansion, will actually auto-upgrade to GS625 in your inventory. Note not all T5 named items will be updated to GS625 post-expansion, but most of the recent named T5s will. from nw yt channel
During the QA he also stated we should still upgrade them with umbral shards. So my question is: when they upgrade our purples to 625, do they go legendary or stay purple?
So now you need more mats to upgrade named gear and all the crafted and regular gear that we grinded for that is really good for the build we worked on for 2 years are useless. Nice
i wouldnt put the smooth bone ring in thumbnail, its very misleading. best way to describe this system is, if the item is named and is capable of going to 700, then you can force the 3rd perk and upgrade it to 700 edit: use NWBD in PTR section to search for 2 perk that you want, lock in attribute for your class (magnify is also a new attribute) and if it goes to 700, you can upgrade it later
So there are some named items that don't have the glowy effect. I think this is because some of them are older named items that didn't convert when they introduced the shiny effect in the game. Will these auto upgrade if upgraded with umbrals?
so lemme get this straight.. they are getting rid of umbral shards because people complained about then forever, but now were just getting a different material to essentially upgrade our gear again. so essentially all im hearing is dark matter is umbral shards 2.0. fuuuuuuuuun.....
@@scaroz2749 fair point, but seems stupid to remove one upgrade system and put in another one. Crazy idea here, and im just spitballing they could have just made it a little easier to get umbral shards instead of removing them? Idk the system sounds worse to me, get all your crafting skills to 200 to craft the materials you need to upgrade gear instead of just having a 590 piece that you can upgrade and take with you along your leveling process.
So basically any named items or legendary items prior the expansion just basically salvage them, there is no reason to keep any of them since you can't upgrade them right?
May have missed it, but I'm assuming this is only for purps, if you have a legendary(not 700) and its not working. I made a firestaff with materia, it rolled 700 and I can't change anythign about it.
hey matte , i ve got a doubt about th "gypsum (item slot) cast like [ gypsum ring cast] crafted on the gypsum kiln , what we do with those items , ive got mor than 100 of each , i should open it now reclaim the umbrals and take the legendarys or wait and open it after expansion?
Dunno if it’s just me but I’ve got loads of named items 650+ but they’re not showing up in the gypsum kiln, is it only certain named items or is my game buggin lol
Ok so I have named amulet that i picked up post expansion GS 648 and want to upgrade to 700 but it doesn't show up in named items list at gypsum kiln. It isn't equipped or in any gear set. What am I missing here? Update: in NWDB comments it seems this amulet (Lifering) is bugged for upgrading.
well I happened to have saved over 400 gypsum casts(weapons,jewellery, armor mixed)!! what to do with them ? open them to get 400 shards each and very few legendary ? Or does is have chance to give 700 gs items when opened after expansion ?
What is the benefit of upgrading an item to GS 700. Say it has the same stats but its 700 not a 600. How does this affect a lets say open world pvp? Does the higher GS with the same stats gives any advantage or not? I don't understand that part.
It makes no sense, some current items would still be BIS, but you can't upgrade it, so its useless. I don't understand the picking and choosing within AGS
Don't salvage your named items till after the expansion. Most will upgrade to 625 automatically. But ya in the end they will be scrap or sell for the transmog.
Are the matrixes able to be traded? I really dont want to bother leveling my tradeskills on my alts lol Lol NVM you answered in the video as I asked 😂 I'd assume it'll go at the cheapest like 10-20k per
are OPR chests giving 600+ rusher gear on the PTR right now? (if I have OPR chests unopened am I better to save them rather than open and upgrade with shards?)
Hi, do you think it's worth to conserve all expedition's chest from the season pass until expansion begin ? Like if I open chest in season 3 with the new max gear score, it can be helpful ?
Anyone please help answer me very confused What about the Slayer of enemies weapon with a gearscore of 625 can it still be used after the expansion or all the items we have now will not be used? and I just wanted to make purple clothing equipment with perk Mining luck and Luck whether it will be used after the expansion or make it later after the expansion.
That's weird - I've never been able to upgrade any non-named items (from invasions, major breach caches, or anything) between 590 to 599 to 600 legendary ever.
I have dropped an axe with 638 Gs and i cant upgrade it to 700. Called Swipe. Dropped Woodgrain gear under 600 but i can upgrade them to 700. any ideas why?
So you're telling me that I'm going to have to re-farm the majority of my named item, only so that I could get the exact same item in a post-expansion form before being able to upgrade it to 700 ? WTF is that madness ?
Also wondering this. My company are convinced all prepatch named items will be able to be upgraded to 700 (Smooth bone ring obtained prior to patch etc.)
Stopwatches will not have any crafting purpose, and like Umbral Shards, will just be something you salvage. What we get in return for salvaging them, AGS won't tell us :(
The only trade skill i have above 250 is leather work. Was thinking of just buying those matrix materials so i dont craft them, but then i realized i only have 10k gold 🤣
Of note, noticed you had artifact shield and a weapon. In the live release this won't be possible since it's actually a bug that shields are counting as armor.
@@BagginsTV thx baggins for the answer! I have another question: Is there a pattern how we get epic>legendary with the new gearscore? I mean before it was all named epic till 590>600 legendary ...do you know how it now works?
Why they don't made a complete new Xpac Ressource instead of Gypsum this is really annoying ofc it's for all stuff they should cut off base game stuff and go on with all new xpac stuff.
Damn seems like the game is screwed long wait times and new upgrade system i think this game is doomed mounts took too long and paying for dlc is bs when lor mmo comes out this game is totally done
Converting Umbrals to Gold is the most idiotic decision ever. The economy is already pretty fucked with a single BiS item costing Gold cap. People are sitting on hundreds of thousands of Umbrals, some millions...which will create such an influx of Gold. It really is a joke
well thius game its fueirht trashd if evryone its thinking about playing this indie game consider they blocked the transfer to 99% of server so you cant play with your firend and you cant ask a refound, max capicity of one server its 2,7k player. in 2008 a wow private server made ina teen romm was containing 10k player , all for sponsor this shit game and made amazon scam money luck you

So now you need more mats to upgrade named gear and all the crafted and regular gear that we grinded for that is really good for the build we worked on for 2 years are useless. Nice
Yup. But getting BIS items are easier now. Once a week you get a item with the exact perks you want.
@@itgamer4143 you talking about crafting at the gypsum?
Is this your first mmo?
@@sebbo59 yeah. and even if you went into the expansion and already had BiS in all slots, what fun would that be?
i wouldnt put the smooth bone ring in thumbnail, its very misleading. best way to describe this system is, if the item is named and is capable of going to 700, then you can force the 3rd perk and upgrade it to 700

wait wait...... so anything 650 and up can potentially be BIS?
I've been deleting purple items - I had read somewhere it has to be a certain level. 😢
Glad there’s still a way to upgrade gear in the expansion! Not sure I’m gonna be doing it much due to the cost, but glad it’s there.
This answered so many questions for me. Thank you.
Still think that was a bad move is not being able to upgrade old gear they need to change that asap
been using gypsum incorrectly after the expansion... thanks Baggins! lesson learned
So there are some named items that don't have the glowy effect. I think this is because some of them are older named items that didn't convert when they introduced the shiny effect in the game. Will these auto upgrade if upgraded with umbrals?
I guess those are the 'old' named and dont count. We have to see
so lemme get this straight.. they are getting rid of umbral shards because people complained about then forever, but now were just getting a different material to essentially upgrade our gear again. so essentially all im hearing is dark matter is umbral shards 2.0. fuuuuuuuuun.....
But you can get dark matter in many more ways than Umbral shards. You are not forced to do mutations all over again.

@@mrgrinchsmokes117 another point is, Umbral was mandatory to get to the highest GS. But GS700 items are just dropping in the content you are playing.
So basically any named items or legendary items prior the expansion just basically salvage them, there is no reason to keep any of them since you can't upgrade them right?
At 9:50 you mentioned doing a full breakdown video on crafting matrix, did you ever make that video? I didn't see it in your catalog.
Where do the Armor Matrix come from or drop?
May have missed it, but I'm assuming this is only for purps, if you have a legendary(not 700) and its not working.
I made a firestaff with materia, it rolled 700 and I can't change anythign about it.
What is the point of all the different types of gypsum, sapphire , diamond etc?
Since the gear is upgrading to 700 with gypsum, but not becoming legendary, how do we upgrade it to legendary?
Im glad I can do purge on all my gear after 2 years of farming
HAHAHAHA SAME!
Is it better to open gypsum cast now or wait for updates?
keep it as gypsum shards is the best options. If you have casts, open now or after won't matter.
So what’s the money trick to do when the expansion arrives????
hey matte , i ve got a doubt about th "gypsum (item slot) cast like [ gypsum ring cast] crafted on the gypsum kiln , what we do with those items , ive got mor than 100 of each , i should open it now reclaim the umbrals and take the legendarys or wait and open it after expansion?
Does this mean I can safely salvage all the gear I hoarded since the release of the game? what will I do with all that free storage space xD
Fill your banks with spores now? 😂 MOAR SPORES!
What kind of armor are you wearing? Is it new?
Where did you find the heroic heavy headwear ? I can't find any info on it
Thx for the video btw
I still can’t understand why refining materials can’t be done at an armorsmith or outfitter
I dont have the option to upgrade named items at the kiln. I can only create new ones using dense expedition materia?
Dunno if it’s just me but I’ve got loads of named items 650+ but they’re not showing up in the gypsum kiln, is it only certain named items or is my game buggin lol
To upgrade item on kiln the item have to be in ur bag not equiped .
works for me
@@teemoofrivia6435 I know that mate but I’ve got 100s of named items in my storage not showing up as upgradable
have the same problem, many 650+ legendary named items in the bag and they're not showing in the gypsum kiln
Ok so I have named amulet that i picked up post expansion GS 648 and want to upgrade to 700 but it doesn't show up in named items list at gypsum kiln. It isn't equipped or in any gear set. What am I missing here?
Update: in NWDB comments it seems this amulet (Lifering) is bugged for upgrading.
sp do they always appear epic before crafting? also what turns them into legendary? or does it do that regardless?
I have about 120 gypsum orbs now. I saved them for a while after I reached 625.
I know this is an old video but can you upgrade to 725 now?
well I happened to have saved over 400 gypsum casts(weapons,jewellery, armor mixed)!! what to do with them ? open them to get 400 shards each and very few legendary ? Or does is have chance to give 700 gs items when opened after expansion ?

im highly annoyed, all the Named heavy sets that still have refreshing ward cant be above 625.
So basically, we can salvage all of our named items that I've been collecting and saving over the past 2 years. That's sad.
It makes no sense, some current items would still be BIS, but you can't upgrade it, so its useless. I don't understand the picking and choosing within AGS
Well they would've been useless anyways with the new gear. Welcome to every MMO expansion ever
Don't salvage your named items till after the expansion. Most will upgrade to 625 automatically. But ya in the end they will be scrap or sell for the transmog.
You may be sad, but I have 4 sheds filled with gear, can’t wait to scrap it all.
you have no feelings@@TylerDull
What's that set at the beggining? it looks freaking awesome
It's the new Mythril heavy armor you can craft, it does look REALLY good!
Infused gypsum orbs have any use? It appears there are uses for normal orbs but not sure about if I should make infused orbs anymore
Are the matrixes able to be traded? I really dont want to bother leveling my tradeskills on my alts lol
Lol NVM you answered in the video as I asked 😂
I'd assume it'll go at the cheapest like 10-20k per
Alas, I do not think you can upgrade Smooth Bone Ring.
Smoothbone ring is named and it is pushed to 625. I'm pretty sure you can. Let me know.
Why are attributes on 700 gear the same as current like 600 gear? They scaled everything down i guess?
so is it more effecient to use up all your umbral shards before the expansion to max out your current gear, or best to hang onto them?
If you want power early, use up your shards. If you want gold for the longer term, hang onto them!
Should i save materia from dungeons or use it to level my professions before expansion?
i have 600 Gypsum casts saved up. Should I open them before the expansion so i get umbral shards or are they going to change what comes out of casts?
well i am glade i kept all shiny named items , if i needed them in future
It looks like they nerfed health stat. The current ones are almost 10% already and that one only said 7%
are OPR chests giving 600+ rusher gear on the PTR right now? (if I have OPR chests unopened am I better to save them rather than open and upgrade with shards?)
On the PTR they have new (Level 65) Outpost Rush boxes, so the old ones are being made redundant, from what I can tell
i dont have those options on my game do i need to buy the dlc or something for it to show up?
Can I change any perk in the item or is always the first one from the top?
Perfect video as always, but DAMN what is your skin at the begining of the video ? :o
It's the new crafted heavy armor, Mythril Plate! ptr.nwdb.info/db/item/shard_str_heavychest_platet52

How to Upgrade Items in New World's Expansion
Dude whats your computer specs you game look incredible *
LOL, thank the toilet I saw this video before salvaging all my gear. 😅
save your orbs..
Probably a dumb question, but a named 590 item, can it be upgraded to 700?
If its 590 its an old named and cant be Upgraded. The New named will drop higher than 590
It has the potential to be pushed to 625. From my understanding those named items that are now 625 can be pushed to 700.
Hmnmm so what about BoE named itesm
They should also "auto upgrade" I believe!
New world is looking soo juicy
What will happen to upgrading 590 gs to 600gs named items? How can we upgrade it after the patch?
And this is why I'm not going deep on new world. All the stuff I crafted is going to be useless.
didnt they make a post saying that named items you have currently would be upgraded to 650 automatically at the start if the expansion?
They said they will be automatically upgraded to 625, hence to help you while leveling to 65 and doing the story level expeditions
@@BasosySG ohhhh I see. And it needs to be 650 to be upgraded. Ok. Thanks for clearing that.
