I kind of like it, but I don't at the same time. I'll think about it.

Don't want to mess with damages, I feel like that would be a lot of work to code. I'll think about this as well.

Hmm, great idea, though maybe you could flip the leveling tier system. I understand what you mean by mythics needing the least amount of XP to level up, them being magically powerful and etc, but maybe have the mythics be the hardest to level up. Handling an item of extreme power can't be easier than some random unique!

Furthermore, a leveling chart describing the items specific buffs would be really nice.

Overall, this suggestion has some really good potential, though I wonder how this would affect item prices

Cool idea but I think that will be a huge update which may require tons of work.

If you like this, check out my most supported suggestion here.

Changelog:

Contributors:
- @EchoHatesLag
(Inspired me to add leveling chart and more leveling details)

Changes:
Added an update on top of the thread.
Added a link to a previous suggestion.
Added more details on how you would level weapons.
Added a chart to explain how much tier each would get

UPDATE:
I find a lot of people that don't support my idea. Yet, none of them give reasoning. With this, I decided to use the poll only to count supporters. I will acknowledge all constructive criticism, but I will not tolerate people not liking the idea without any reasoning.

Idea
A way to increase an item’s statistics through constant usage.

How would this work?
Every item would have it’s own personal level, the level-maximum would be set at ten. Leveling a item would mean that you use it frequently. The higher level a item achieves, the better the item stats. They would naturally increase as you level up the item, much like a horse. Re-identifying could still change the stats, but it would be even more costly dependent on the weapon’s level. I understand how much it already costs, but this could be a sure way of making your items better without any gamble involved.

+ Larger amounts of experience will be gained depending on the level of the mob you’re killing. Mobs higher than you will give more experience.
+ When you kill a mob, your item will gain the equivalent of the experience you get, however it will not be taken out of your ranking percentage.

How could this help?
For average items, you could potentially increase the stats up to maximum, it will take time and will require quite a lot of effort, but it will be cost efficient and will involve no risk.

How would experience work for different tiers?
This chart may be confusing, so let me explain. The standard a level will take for a Mythic tier would be, as example, ten thousand experience. For every tier below it, ten thousand experience will go further. For a mythic it may be a single bar, but for a legendary it may be a bar and a half.

Mythic - 100% (Normal experience amount)
Legendary - 105% (Slightly higher experience amount)
Rare - 115% (Even higher experience amount)
Set - 120% (Higher experience amount)
Unique - 125% (Even higher experience amount)
Normal - (Wouldn't have ranks since they carry no statistics)

Specific features?
- Natural item leveling; weapons, armors, and even accessories.
- A way to increase any item’s statistics.
- A reward to using the same item for a long time.
- Getting an item to level ten will allow you to re-identify the item once for free.
- Levels would be displayed above the statistics.

Questions and suggestions will be responded to on the main post, please do not say I should change something without giving a good reason.

Didn't rip you off, this is my idea. My idea is different than yours anyways. Your idea is a worst version of mine (if that). You abandoned yours immediately after posting it and it has little to no detail. As I have said, this system isn't unique to Wynncraft. You didn't think of it yourself, you got inspiration from another game. The idea of leveling equipment is not yours, don't claim it to be. Don't confront me for taking your idea when mine is more thought out and supported.

I would imagine. It would require a lot of work and coding.

The mythics would be the hardest. The graph could be confusing, but getting 100% XP isn't as much as getting 200% XP. The lower the tier, the higher the boost. Is that a bit more clear?

Ahhh, I get it now. I thought you meant it as the amount of XP you need to get for levelling your weapon, not the XP modifier. My mistake
