Each piece of elder rune equipment can be upgraded to +1, +2, +3, +4, and +5. Each level requires extra bars equal to the number of bars already used for the previous level. For example, a platebody (5 bars) can be upgraded to +1 using an additional 5 elder rune bars. The platebody+1 can be upgraded to a platebody+2 using 10 additional bars (because the platebody+1 needed a total of 10 bars), etc. The amount of experience gained scales up in the same way.
