## Upgrades

Upgraded Armors will grant greater protection, while upgraded Weapons will grant greater damage.\
Upgrades can be configured to require XP or Money (Vault required).

Shards are dropped with a configurable chance by mobs or mined blocks. Inserting an upgradable item (weapon or armor) and a shard inside an anvil you will be able to upgrade your item.

### Shields
