Grotesque Endeavor (Meta)

Grotesque Endeavor is the result you get from transmuting 9 unique items. It has a chance to take any trait from any item, but will not have two lines of the same trait. And if, for example, you transmute 9 of the same item, it will fill in the extra trait slots with random, arguably much less useful traits.

One strong strategy is to aim for the traits from Verdant Loops and Burning Gaze in your Grotesque Endeavor. You can actually use these items to focus your outcome.

For example, mixing 4 Verdant loops, 4 Burning gazes, and 2 strong items you like will almost always give you the effects from Verdant Loops and Burning Gaze as well as most of the traits from your other two items. This is because you are limiting the number of possible outcomes since Verdant Loops and Burning Gaze only have one trait.

Verdant Loops and Burning Gaze are also arguably the most powerful items in the game. Verdant Loops allows you to have more than one trap of each kind with a CD that’s a fraction of a second thanks to the Elite Skill ”Singularity“ while Burning Gaze essentially does 10% of each enemy’s max health as damage to all enemies.

Get those traits!
