Upgradable 4 > times, to 551. Very nice gear. I suspect they may have increased the drop chance, or RNG gods love me, or they are really really evil. Yesterday I got one from Vazuvius, OH JOY!! A short time later from Archierius, Oh Joy! So I needed more lessers to upgrade them, ground some frogs. That put me over for coins,bought another burden, oh Joy. But damn I want OFF this island. But really should grind more frogs now, I have a dozen luck potions to burn anyway. Today. Got enough to upgrade that one then when sorting junk to finally leave I found another, ?? joy ?? No idea where that one came from I should have noticed it, unless during all the 'greed' clicking in frog groups. Oh, sigh, more frogs. Now it happens, when they are nearly but not quite useless. Finally got 200, so off to the gamblers den to burn the last of the timeless coins. ...you guessed it..another burden. OH NO!! more frogs. And half a dozen monkey pets to fit 3 slots, run free little monkeys. my..goodness...I WANT --OFF-- THIS GOL DARN ISLAND :-) Still, the frogs now sometimes die as soon as I tag them, didn't take long at all. Finally I left timeless , I even ignored a dying rare on the way to the fp, just in case. As I flew away I looked back and I swear the clouds and mist looked like a huge evil grin.
