Advanced Upgrades also Known as Blue Bar's can be obtained randonly during various modifications.
Any and ALL Blue Bars gained can not be removed once obtained.
Temper Blue Bars
Temper Blue Bars are gained Randomly while Tempering a Weapon. You can have up to 4 per stat (Attack, Damage, Defence, Life, Musou). Each Blue Bar will increase your Upgrade Stat +1
So if your Upgrade stat is (+40) and you gain 4 Blue Bars it will become (+44) and like all Upgrade stats it will be (+44) for each temper.
