Ok...do I finally have this right? - Guild Wars Forums

Alright..if I understand this correctly...

You can put 2 upgrades on some weapons.... bowstring and grip for bows....

But only 1 upgrade on others... hilt for swords etc

You can only put only 1 upgrade or rune onto a piece of armor, and they do cancel each other out.... for instance 2 minor runes of whatever = 1 minor rune of whatever

You cannot however put upgrades onto a shield.

Further...if you customize a weapon, you are much less likely to get the upgrade back from it...and you make it useless to trade or sell.

And...you will never be able to salvage an upgrade from a collectors or quest related object

Is that close?

You can put 2 upgrades on most all weapons I believe, save wands. You forgot pommels for swords. Runes do not stack, only the highest is counted. Shields only have their inherent qualities, such as -x damage (while enchanted). Not sure about the customization lowering the salvage %. You can't salvage collectors or quest items.

You can sell customised equipment...but only to a merchant.

Is there a list someplace where all the upgrades and weapons available in the game are listed??

Try the priest of balthazaar. He has all the upgrades I believe.

As I stated in another thread, in the June 1st update, they made collectors armor salvageable, put a rune on it, you can salvage it out.
