Perfect uselessness. Need upgrade guide. - Guild Wars Forums

Aeon_Xin · Nov 02, 2006, 10:00 PM // 22:00

I've searched high and low, and I'm looking for a guide on what each upgrade is for each weapon( example axe haft of fortitude) and what specific numbers/effects it gives.

The games old enough to where people only mention the tops, and most people know what they do, but i haven't played in a year and was a real newb back then so I didn't even bother with upgrades.

For example, I know Barbed means extends bleeding, because I have a Barbed sword, but that's about all I know. Vampiric and the rest?

All I've been able to find is a list of each, with prices.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

www.guildwiki.org has everything on game mechanics.

Priest of Balthazar lists all upgrades available.

And, within seconds, on the mainpage of guildwiki, I find this nice little link:

http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Weapon_upgrade

It's not up-to-date yet, because new things were released with NF.

/sigh, Inde should place a pop-up box before people ask questions, and it should only ask 1 question: Are you certain this information is NOT on guildwiki.org? It'd save gwg alot of bandwith...

Or walk up to a priest of balthazar either in your guild hall if they have added him or on the battle isles and he will show you everything.
