Boosts | Crafting Divinity: OS Guide
Last update: 14 June 2016
Nearly every weapon/armor can be upgraded with appropriate items/substances that improve on their parameters - the so called boosts. Thanks to this, you can obtain equipment that suits your needs and, additionally, increase its value. A good news is that you can apply more than one boost to a given piece of equipment. The below table presents the boosts, alongside with the effects that it provides. Of course,, by how much a piece of equipment is improved, depends on the crafting/blacksmithing level and on the character's level.
