How to Upgrade Heirlooms in Ironforge

To upgrade heirlooms in Ironforge, you can purchase special items from Heirloom Curators, Scabbards, and Armor Casings, with the first upgrade item allowing your heirloom to scale up to Level 35, and subsequent upgrades enabling it to scale to higher levels, including Level 40, Level 45, Level 50, and Level 60. The process involves accessing the Heirloom vendor, Krom Stoutarm, located in The Library within the Hall of Explorers in Ironforge, and acquiring the necessary upgrade tokens, such as Awakened Heirloom Armor Casing or Awakened Heirloom Weapon Casing, which can be bought with gold or Timewarped Badges.
