Upgrading means, transforming an item from normal class (like a Cap) into an exceptional class item (like War hat) and transforming the warhat into an elite item (shako)

You can transoform items using the horadric cube and these formulaes

(scroll down until you see the recipees for 1.10 ladder only )
