Introduction

# Description
Equipped armor gains experience by killing NPCs or using Upgrade Parts on it. When enough experience is earned, new perks unlock, and their color changes.
Armor perks have ranks that determine their strength and are mainly influenced by Item Luck.
Perk 1-3 The first three perks on tier 3 gear are always predefined. Some tier 4 items may have random perks even on the first three levels.
Perk 4 The fourth perk can be chosen via a dialog window once unlocked. However, if you level up your weapon using Upgrade Parts, this perk will be random.
Perk 5 The fifth perk is always random.
Legendary Perk The sixth perk, known as the "legendary" perk, is selected from a separate table of perks and only applies against NPCs.
Perk 7 Every weapon can be upgraded by Roger with T4 Parts / Cotsford in top left of Vegas with an Wattz Core to gain one additional perk.

Rerolling

Armor perks can be rerolled by Boyce in Junktown or Randal in New Vault City. The cost is in local currency and applies to a single reroll. Since the outcome is randomized, multiple rerolls will likely be necessary to achieve the desired perk configuration.

Level Experience
1 15,000
2 100,000
3 200,000
4 50,000
5 6,000,000
6 50,000

Armor experience

The total amount of gear experience (gear XP) required for Armor to level up depends on its tier, type, and current level.

Total XP needed for armor to level up = Base XP Requirement * XP Requirement Multiplier

Base XP requirement and Experience modifiers to get specific equipment to a specific level can be seen in tables below:

Base armor XP required to level up per tier
Tier I Tier II Tier III Tier IV Tier V Tier VI
Level 1 7 500 15 000 30 000 60 000 180 000 900 000

Itemized gear upgrades

There are two item types that can help your gear achieve the optimal perk configuration: upgrade parts (which provide an immediate gear XP boost), and gear mod upgrades (which have a chance of increasing the rank of your already unlocked perks).

Gear experience boosters

Found mostly in dungeon lockers, Upgrade Parts add experience directly to your gear. Note that any perks unlocked via this method will be randomized, even if you would normally be able to select the one you want.

To use Upgrade Parts on an item: (1) place the item on the ground; (2) click and hold the left mouse button on it; (3) from the drop‑down menu, select the bag icon; (4) in the inventory window that appears, click on the stack of Upgrade Parts you wish to use.

Gear experience boosters
Image Name Description
Upgrade Parts.png Upgrade Parts Adds 10,000 XP to a piece of gear
Upgrade Parts MKII.png Upgrade Parts MKII Adds 100,000 XP to a piece of gear
Upgrade Parts MKIII.png Upgrade Parts MKIII Adds 1,000,000 XP to a piece of gear

10 x Upgrade Parts can be combined into 1 x Upgrade Parts MKII, and 10 x Upgrade Parts MKII can be combined into 1 x Upgrade Parts MKIII via Fix-Boy, which may come in handy if you're planning to craft Water Chips.

Gear perk rank upgrades

If the rank of the perks on your gear could use a little tune-up, there are several items that you may find interesting, see the table below.

To use any of them: (1) place your armor/weapon on the ground; (2) click and hold the left mouse button on it; (3) from the drop‑down menu, select the bag icon; (4) in the inventory window that appears, click on the item you wish to use.
