Gear upgrade maximum?

[Carlton BEaEnkEs, no E]

Is there a maximum level for gear upgrades? Like +20 or something?

[Noah Wan]

Most i have is a +10 atm and thats costing about 15k per upgrade. so if you going for 20 you gotta have a lot of gold. havent seen a cap though, it lets me go +11

There is no cap. The price gets ridiculous really fast though.

No clue if a hard cap, but I've noticed a dimishing craft return on some items.

That is, the actual stat increase (not the +1 etc name moniker) may go up each upgrade for a few upgrades, then it'll take two, maybe more as you go on, upgrades to see a (visual, text) rise, and so on.

I was guessing the % multiplication forumla (or whatever) that applies to upgrades sometimes is small enough for it not to make a noticeable on-item stat increase, just like the zero weight inventory items. EDIT: so you need to spend resources to upgrade 10 times (example) to notice a .1 text difference on the item

eg, yes, it can get really expensive to get past +5/+6 or so, most of the time.

Anyone know why i have the mats to upgrade but it wont let me upgrade, i have everything i need but it wont let me hit E

I have an item at +50 right now. Could have kept going but it was already doing crazy famage by then so didn't bother.
The gold upgrade cost does stop increasing at some point, but I can't remember at what level of upgrading that happened.
Just noticed that at some point that it was costing me a constant 60k gold each upgrade.
