There are various ways you can upgrade your gear in ESO.
Imbue/Embed/Infuse
Resonance/Re-rolling
Soul Charge
Destroying
You can imbue, embed or infuse your gear. Imbuing your gear typically increases your gear's main statistics, such as Strength and Intellect for weapons. Embedding your gear allows you to put power ups into your gear that will give it more statistics such as intellect. At higher levels you can even infuse your gear using advanced items to make your gears even stronger.
To imbue, embed or infuse your gear, talk to Qioz - Blacksmith in Pokari and choose either "Embed/Imbue/Infuse gear" or "Gems Embed/Imbue/Infuse." The first option will use your gold, and the second option will use your Gems.
Once you click on one of the options, you can begin to imbue or embed your gear. Put your Gear in the "Gear" box and put an Etherelic in the "Relic/Gem" spot. Different level of gears requires different types of relics / gems.
Imbuing your gears
Both Weapons and Gears can be Imbue ; as result it will increase the Statistics for witch they are related too (Imbue to give :)
Mostly, Weapons are Imbue to increase (Strength) and Intellect (when it says "mana" instead of Intellect, it still will raise the Intellect)
Gears are divide in two class:
- Imbue to give Defense and (Resistance);
- Imbue to give Health.

Imbuing your gears is not guaranteed. If it fails, your gear will decrease in level. You can put an Auxiliary item in the "Aux." box to help your chances of upgrading your gear. You can obtain Auxiliary items from the Npc Shop or from other players who may be selling them.
Embedding your gears
You can embed Jades into your gears to add stats such as Intellect, Strength, Defense or Resistance. Prior to being embedded, your gear must have the appropriate number of empty sockets. You can socket your gear at Qioz by using Hand drills (obtained by killing monsters).
If your socket fails, your gear will be destroyed. You can use an auxiliary material, obtained from the Heaven Repository or from other players to increase the chances of success, and it your gear will not be destroyed if it fails.
You can also refine the Jades that you embed into your gear by combining them at the Ancestral Forge. Keep forging them until you have a Refined Jade!
Note: You can only put gems of the same TYPE and the same LVL in One piece of equipment that have more than 1 embed.
