Guides to Hellgate: London

[Jaknet]

I believe the patch allows you to upgrade 25 times per item.

25 is correct

25x item upgrades.

Maybe I missed something on the forums, but why don't any of these guide links work? Each one I click on or paste won't work. Same goes for the wiki site. Help!

We recently switched for .net to .com. I imagine all those links still have the .net addresses. Worst case scenario you can find most of those guides in the hellgate london/general forums.

Another thing that might be cool to add are skill trees. I just stopped playing WoW after 4 years and started playing HG:L in SP. Instantly fell in love with it. It would be great to get other players' ideas on some builds and stat allocations, particularly for nightmare/elite modes. Looking to be either a guardian or blademaster. Anyway this can be done?

I've a guide request: item upgrading.

I've not really seen a comprehensive how to on this.  Questions like:
What changes happen each time I use the nanoforge?
the item gets upgraded, increased by 2 levels.  weapon damage increased and armor protection/shields increase some
How many times can I upgrade?
it was 10 times, but i think the fun patch increased it, not sure how much.
How do nanoshards factor in and how to best aquire them?
u need nanoshards to use the nanoforge 1st time = 1 sharde, 2nd time = 2 shardes, 3rd time = 3 shards, etc.  U get shardes by breaking down items.  The best chance for a shard is with unique, and the worst is white items.
What upgrades/effects can I expect from the 3000?
the upgrade effects vary and r random for your faction.  could be skill boost to armor protection, to various damage increases, luck boost, etc.
How are mods affected?
Best strategies for upgrading and what not to upgrade.

There are bits and pieces laying about the web on the subject, like use limits listed here, but it's a chore to track them all down and some of the info has been outdated by patches.  And some of the finer points really aren't covered that well anywhere at all.

Another note about the Augmentrex 3000. Price of the upgrades and quality (what you can possibly get) are determined by the level of the item. The higher the level of the item is the better upgrades it can get and the more they'll cost.

I made these back during multiplayer days...

So they apply to the original game; not sure if anything has changed in quests or quest rewards in the mods.
