Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is an action RPG, and like every RPG, there's a progression system. Defeating enemies will get you Genuine Qi (XP), which you can spend to level up your character and become powerful.

Although you will get a ton of high-level weapons and armor in the game, you can also upgrade your existing gear if you fancy. If you're new to souls-like games, you may have difficulty figuring out how this process works. As such, here's our guide explaining how to upgrade your weapons and armor in Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty.

How To Upgrade Weapons & Armor In Wo Long Fallen Dynasty

You can upgrade your weapons and armor at the Blacksmith in Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty.

Thankfully, you will meet her in the first mission of the game. She will be around in every mission at different places until you unlock the Hidden Village safe hub.

From here on out, you will always find her in this safe hub. Talk to her, and you will see the option to upgrade your gear among other things.

To upgrade your armor, you will require Leather, whereas to upgrade your weapons, you will require Steel.

Additionally, every upgrade will require a different level of that resource. For example, to upgrade your weapon to level 2, you will need level 2 Steel. 

You can find these items while exploring the world or get them as rewards for completing missions. Sub Battlefields are a great source of Steel and Leather as well.

You can check out the rewards section of every side mission before starting to see whether it offers the resource you need to upgrade your gear.
