Item Recipes
3 items of the same rarity
A new item of the same rarity.

The tier level of the new item is the average between the three items.
This recipe works with both identified and unidentified items.

9 items of the same rarity
New item of improved tier.

IMPORTANT: This recipe behaves differently for rare items depending on whether there is an identified item.

9 unidentified rare items
Unidentified unique item of improved tier. The tier of the new item will be slightly higher than the average of the items combined.

9 unique items
Grotesque Endeavor unique item. Its attributes are the combination of the 9 unique items that are combined.



The Grotesque Endeavor has a maximum of 6 attributes. These 6 attributes are chosen randomly out of the combined unique items.

Some attributes can be stacked (eg. trap damage) for increased power, but some cannot. For example, having twice "Portal Guardian Attacks Ignites Target" does not make this attribute better.

Combining 9 Grotesque Endeavors creates another Grotesque Endeavor.

Like all other uniques, only one Grotesque Endeavor can be equipped at a time.
Rune Recipes
Basic Rune Recipes
3 runes of the same rarity
New rune of the same rarity.

9 runes of the same rarity
New rune of greater rarity.

Rolling 9 uniques will roll a new unique.

Advanced Rune Recipes
For these rune recipes to work, the runes CANNOT be unique.

5 unidentified Circle Runes
Unique Infinity Rune. 10% XP Bonus. Clearing a map with this rune will permanently increase the map's tier by one.


3 unidentified Triangle Runes
Unique Breeze Rune. 5% XP Bonus. 100 Additional Life.


Extra Notes
What are the item rarities?
  • Common (White)
  • Uncommon (Blue)
  • Rare (Yellow)
  • Unique (Orange)

Do tiers matter?
Yes! Tiers matter! Items of higher level tiers have higher potential numbers.

How do I get items of higher tier?
There are several ways to get higher level items:
  • Increase the rarity of items using items.
  • Play higher level maps
  • Rush waves to increase item rarity

Special Thanks

@ProphetPX non-permanent runes are lost when completing a map. The drop chance of runes is random as far as I know.

1. I loved making a Breeze +100 life rune but i lost it after playing 1 level. why?
2. I also lost my Hematopia double-life rune because i made a transmuting mistake -- how can i earn one of those back again?

Thanks for the excellent guide.

While the Grotesque Endeavor can have 6 slots, this happens very rarely and I'm often left with 5 slots instead with a perk missing. For example I combine the Dart and Bolt unique, which on my first go did end up having all 6 perks, but on subsequent combines it got downgraded to 5 slots with Dart rearm missing.
Any idea whats causing it to fluctuate?

@killeroid356: Only one Grotesque Endeavor can be equipped at a time.

@daler7: Thanks!

Question: can you equip multiple grotesque endeavors? because with other unique items you cannot have 2 of the same in your equip slots

5 blue circle = unique: permanently increase the tier of map by 1
3 rare triangle = unique: start with 100 additional life
