yep looks like u have to use 250 Cataloged Researched "the currency" and upgrade any item to complete quest.

Comment by KodiakJedi

Kind of annoying that this forces you to burn 250 Cataloged Research to upgrade a 200 level item to 207 when I am already in all 220 and 226 gear. Would rather just hang onto that for later.

Comment by Comocosono

Yep that is the point. To force you to burn any you found doing the quest.
To be fair I guess this is only a "catch up" system for alts.
What sucks is that I can't complete the quest being 226 I immediately vendored my gear when I got it.
I refuse to waste an item recovery, last time one of Blizzard's asinine questlines forced me to use an item recovery I needed to use it 3 days later and couldn't

Comment by splunge

There is no follow-up, so you are not *forced* to complete it to continue any quest line. The only other thing I got was 100 'Rep' with the Archivists' Codex, so its honestly not a big of a deal if you put this off until you get the perfect gear to upgrade. Also, you can spend the 750 to upgrade a level 2 to a level 3 and it counts for completion. (That's what i did)

For some reason I can not upgrade items from level 4 to level 5 or six. I have purchased the books from Archivist Roh-Suir but the upgrade is still locked at level 4. It wouldn't hurt Blizzard to explain the process a little more.

Comment by rowain

I upgraded several items, none of which gave me quest completion credit. What did I miss?

Comment by Healeos

If you are having trouble completing this quest like me, for example I upgraded a weapon and ring twice without getting credit, this is what I did to complete it.

Abandon the quest

Comment by Saephire
