Crafting, rerolling and upgrading

[simpetar 12]

I was really wondering about few things about crafted gear.

 

1. I craft a 640 epic, then reroll it for more favorable stats and then upgrade. Will the upgraded item respect the rerolling, or will they revert back to the original stats?

 

2. Is it possible to get role-specific stats on items that can have them via rerolling? That spirit and bonus armor on crafted necks, capes, or rings for healers/tanks. Or are the affixes limited to general stats?

 

Any insight or experience welcome

I haven't rerolled any myself but I would assume it would retain stats after the reroll and just upgrade.

 

Not sure about no.2 either!

im not sure but I have other issue I craft my own chest and have stats crit+haste and want to reroll them because ms is better for me .... i try it 4x and still has same stats but different numbers ( every reroll item change only numbers , not stats ) I dont know if should works like that or I have just bad luck.

That is just bad luck.  Rerolls will effect the numerical value of the stats and the actual stats themselves.  Getting 4 rolls and not changing the stat is horrid RNG!  But on a side note, all the servers I am on the Hexweave to reroll the stats sells at a 50% or more discount to the actual material costs to make the cloth into anything else for a Tailor.  So, if you can afford it, make something else to sell then by double the amount of Hexweave reroll items!

Yeah seems to really suck 4x?!

Another Question:

 

Are the essences to upgrade an item bound? Or can you sell them, send them to alts etc.?

[Peelyon 416]

Pretty sure you can sell and trade them - not looked tbh

Update: I just used 10 reroll things on amulet and boots. You can get role specific stats with rerolling. The amulet had "of the Noble" suffix, with mastery and bonus armor (I was in tank loot spec, not sure if it had anything to do with it).

 

Also, the amulet had previously an enchant on it and it stayed through all rerolls. So I HOPE it will not be touched even through upgrades and stats stay the same too.

Update 2, for anybody interested: Upgrading rerolled items will keep the stats you wanted. No need to keep additional reroll items.
