Traveler's Backpack Upgrade Guide: Tiers, Smithing and Slots

Tier upgrades

Backpacks come in tiers. The base is Standard Traveler's Backpack, and higher tiers include Iron Traveler's Backpack, Gold Traveler's Backpack, Diamond Traveler's Backpack and Netherite Traveler's Backpack. The upgrade can be applied by placing it in a slot on the right side of the backpack inventory. Tier labels shown in the interface include Iron Tier Upgrade, Gold Tier Upgrade and Netherite Tier Upgrade.

Smithing Table tier application

Use Leather as template and combine with tier Traveler's Backpack in Smithing Table to apply upgrade. This is the smithing_transform route for moving a backpack up a tier. Bring the Leather template, the tier Traveler's Backpack you want to upgrade, and the target tier material into the Smithing Table.
