In this part of the video, Gladius discusses item level breakpoints and how they help determine when to use aspects and upgrade gear. The blacksmith’s upgrading system is explained, where items have an item power associated with them that determines their strength. Upgrading items increases their stats and item power, with rare items upgradeable three times and legendary items four times. Item power breakpoints are important, as they determine the possible stats a weapon can have. Upgrades can help cross these breakpoints, affecting the range of stats a weapon can roll.

In this segment of the video, the key points discussed are:
– Waiting to upgrade items until you have the highest item level possible ensures you can use the item with the most powerful aspect.
– Once you reach item power 725 and above, there are no more item power break points, and you will only get a 10 upgrade for each gear upgrade.
– Upgrading gear is still worth it at this level, especially for Cutting Edge content where any upgrade helps enhance your items.
– When crossing an item power breakpoint, affixes on the gear get re-rolled, but the DPS of the weapon remains unchanged.
– Legendary affixes do not get re-rolled, but you can extract a better role on an aspect from another legendary item for an improvement.
– The occultist system allows for extracting and imprinting affixes on items.
– For more detailed information on the occultist system, viewers can refer to the guide in the video description.
