    Hi,

    I was using the Wikia page for info, but, it's not up to date now due to the big update so I'll go about this the old fashion way.

    The question is: How do you get your item to a higher tier than 7?

    Read through the forums that T8 items can drop from doing inf4, so that's settled, but what about T9 & T10? The mod post said that you can get a +/-1 tier. If that's true, how do you get a Tier 9 / 10 legendary for the augument craft?

    Thanks!

    There is no T9 or T10 at this time. When the mod said that you can get +/-1 tier, they were talking about for the difficulty you are farming in. If you are farming in T7, you can get T6, T7, or T8 (rare) drops. Until there is a T8 map, there won't be any T9 items.

    Really wondering if still exist a reasonable chance to drop T8 items. I found some of them in the earliest days following the release of R214, but after the nerf their drop seems to be lowered to zero :(

    What is your experience about the actual drop of T8? Just rare or totally inexistent?

    Ok, but why have I seen pics with weapoins upped to T10? :) And it's common knowledge in-game that items can be upgraded to T10, but no one says/knows how.

    People do have those type of items like our savior Traki has in test server.
    But there is no way to get them in live server currently.

    Don't spread misinformation ... I have only T8 items which I crafted like any other player on TS.

    Other players on TS have T8+ items because there was Infernal V - VI running for a short time on TS.
    I wasn't present on TS at that time.

    Winter Summit event map (plus the challenges maps) seems to be good for farming T8 items. There is good amount of monsters which drop item. All you need is to drop at least one T8 item of particular type and then craft it - put it into slot 1 or slot 2, fill other slots with items of the SAME type and craft/revert until T8 is crafted. If you are unlucky to drop T8 item of particular type (e.g. 2h weapon) and have some T8 spare items then you can also try following crafting (please be aware that it can't be reverted).

    This is the method I used to get my T8 weapon. I had 2x T8s drop for items that I had already made a T8 legendary, so I used them to craft the T8 weapon. It is worth noting that you could do 2x 2H weapons and 2x T8s, or you could do 3x 2H weapons and one T8 item. The odds are slightly better in the first case; 25% vs 18.75%.

    If that is "common knowledge," you need to check your sources. If this is the sort of information you get from them on a regular basis, I'd be scared to find out what other misinformation you think is fact.

    So there are no T9 and T10.

    I can confirm that T8 drops in paralel inf4. Just did, and I'm well on my way to upgrading my Q7 staff to T8.

    I'd say to take your pick of the long PWs, kill everything and then also do the secret lair. Q4, Q6, Q7, Q8, and Q9 are all on the long side, but I'm partial to Q9 since M'dusa is the easiest PW boss in my opinion. Just pray that you don't get the Poison Protector's Secret Lair... Any of the other T7 Protector's Secret Lairs I can solo with relative ease, so long as I use the HP buffs, but the poison protectors are just brutal!

    I used 1 lv 8 2h and 3 x lv 1 ih and i got it right away. The thing that bugs me is that the cape will stay lv 7 while everything will be lv 8....

    well, since thanks to the premium bonus codes i can try the event map with impunity, i shall try

    The only annoying limit is the fragment for infernal passage

    If you have spare materi fragments then you can purchase fragments of infernal passage with them.

    Here is another method, if you want to get a decent amount of T7 drops and don't want to spend any fragments of infernal passage.

    Use realm frags to buy 37 passes to a PW boss (160 Realm Frags). Kill the boss and enter the Secret Lair on T7. I used this to help a guildy that didn't have many frags, but wanted a T7 run. Worked like a charm.

    So, ultimately, it is one of these two:
    140 Fragments of Infernal Passage, 1 Secret Lairs' Offering (More drops, harder to farm entry)
    or
    160 Realm Fragments, 1 Secret Lairs' Offering (Less drops, uses RFs that many players have thousands of)
