Masterworking is an endgame level 100 crafting system to upgrade items and improve item affixes.
Ranking up Affixes
Players will be able to rank up item Affixes up to 12x, which slightly increases the value of all Affixes, including Tempered Affixes. The upgrade process is incremental at each rank but a single affix is randomly and massively buffed every 4th, 8th, and 12th ranks. Effectively, this means that have three chances to really improve an affix on an item.
The ranks at 4, 8, and 12 will show on the item tooltip as the following different colours to show how it has been improved.
- 4 = Blue
- 8 = Yellow
- 12 = Orange
Rerolling
These Masterworked affixes can also be rerolled at the Occultist for a different affix that will inherit the same increased rank. Resetting Masterworked upgrades will however come at a significant cost.
