# Upgrading
Each Class-Variant combination (e.g., Common-(null)) can only be upgraded to the next level up (e.g., Common-Enhanced). Superior variants can only be upgraded to the (null) variant of the next Class up. The ordered progression of upgrades, starting with the (null) Common is as follows:
* Common (null)
* Common Enhanced
* Common Superior
* Uncommon (null)
* Uncommon Enhanced
* Uncommon Superior
* Rare (null)
* Rare Enhanced
* Rare Superior
Players must combine quantities of the same Class-Variant Augment, along with a base amount of 500 Energy, in order to produce 1 same Family Augment of the next Class-Variant tier up. The necessary quantities for each level of upgrade is as follows:
| Class | Variant | Quantity Required to Upgrade to next Variant-Class | Energy Required to Upgrade |
|---|
| Common | (null) | 2 | 500 |
| Common | Enhanced | 2 | 500 |
| Common | Superior | 3 | 500 |
| Uncommon | (null) | 2 | 500 |
| Uncommon | Enhanced | 2 | 500 |
| Uncommon | Superior | 4 | 500 |
| Rare | (null) | 2 | 500 |
| Rare | Enhanced | 2 | 500 |
| Rare | Superior |

Genesis and summoned Augments cannot be upgraded.
