World of Warcraft - Item Upgrading
The item upgrade lets players boost the gear rating of an item up 700 points, and then give it a bonus. Items can be upgraded by keeping them in inventory before heading to the kiln.
Certain items can be upp'd for their unique stats (like a perfectly made breakpoint armour that can be rolled to use in melee PvP) and others, like weapons, don't change much post upgrade and thus aren't worth upgrading.
Weapons
Upgrades to weapons can boost their numerical stats, like attack damage, crit probability and PvE/PvP damage. Weapons come with a flat rate bonus that increases damage per second. In addition, many weapons have a set bonus which is activated when three or more of the same weapon are equipped on a single unit. This bonus can sometimes be more than the damage that a weapon upgrade alone can cause.
The cost of upgrading a weapon is contingent on its rarity and level. For example the weapon with a +2 rating will require two regular Smithing Stones to upgrade while a +3 requires four. The number of stones needed to upgrade the weapon will continue to rise until it requires a higher tier of Smithing Stones, at which the amount will be reset to one.

This means that a weapon will gain 33% attack damage when it is upgraded from an 8 attack damage sword to an 11 attack damage sword. However the 3% does not mean that it will be hit for 3 fewer times as it is an absolute statistic.
A weapon can be rerolled by pressing the green button with circular arrows within the item menu. This will reroll the item and alter its stats, but it won't reset the weapon's levels or tie it to the account status.
