Augmentation

Fluxes give you a chance to add another re-identifiable attribute line to a piece of gear. The flux will state on it what it will augment. It will tell you if it is for the feet, head, weapon, etc; if it is for blue or purple gear; and what level gear it will work on.

Only certain armorers know how to augment. The one in the market does augment gear.

Talk to the armorer and choose Gear Augmentation to open the augmenting menu. Put the flux and the gear into the augment menu boxes and click the button.

You only get a small chance at success. If you do succeed, you will see a new "Added Attribute" (the attributes that you can re-id) on your gear. Whenever you re-id, this will re-id as well.

I have not tried to upgrade an augmented piece of gear, but have been told that these augments do stay when you do gear upgrades; unlike reforges - which do not.

You can get a guaranteed augmentation with a dragon scale refiner. The first augment is 100% and does not require a blessing.

Additional augments using the dragon scale are possible after blessing the gear with a Shylia's Fortune.

Additional augments are not at 100%. You can get these Shylia' Fortunes from orbs, AH, and from Second Otis for trading ToF or from the Treasure hunter for dumplings.
