Someone please explain UPG 2.0 / 3.0.

[thatniqqa41]

UPG are the best weapons available in the game, they were sold on Item Mall forever ago. They came out with different versions at different times so that's why the names can get confusing. These items haven't been sold on IM in a very long time so the only way you can get one is to buy on EM.

typically they all give at least:
100% HP
60% Melee/ Magic / Ranged
60% DD
Bunch of other **** but that's the main stuff

First they sold Epics Upgs, Then 1.0 upgs. these are modeled like the Ancient Weapon right before glacial.
(Each weapon has different name, EX: Homer's Will is a dagger, Mano's Delusion is Katar)
Epics have less DD than 1.0, only 45DD but also have 35% mobility and 15% hp/mp absorption.

2.0 and 3.0 are all modeled after glacial weapons, so you can only tell them apart if you recognize the stats. There are too many variations for me to type but if you ask for a certain kind maybe someone can help you.

Typically Epic and 1.0s are cheaper because they have lower stats and do not have sockets to add Trans Stones.
2.0s and 3.0s can get really expensive but you need to be careful, while most 3.0s are the better choice its not always true. for example 3.0 Zhen and Club is very undesirable because the stats aren't that great, This is because GMs released **** without much thought.

The stats can get get even more confusing bc when it was sold on IM it was sold in 4 parts, so players had to forge it themselves. You don't see it that much but there are some partly UPG weapons out there which sum1 used only x2 or x3 Parts from IM, and used the last part with lower stats that they farmed themselves.

There was a crossbow going around at one point that was even 2 parts 2.0 and 2 parts 3.0 so its dubbed the 2.5 crossbow lmao.

it might take a while but you'll start to recognize them from spammers in CS and PA, and you'll be able to tell exactly what it is.
Like I said earlier there are too many to tell you all the stats but if you have a specific question, like which is the best upg for your class then I can tell you which one and why.
