does anyone know what essence is?? tyvm

You can use the transmutation box to extract Magical (or higher) Essence from magical+ items. Once you get essence, you can combine it with another magical+ item of the same tier to reroll that item.

- When you extract the Essence from an item, you have a chance to get from magical to the magical level of the item. For instance, if you extract an Angelic item, you have a chance to get Magical, Rare, Mystical, or Angelic Essence from that item.

- When you combine Essence with an item, it's important to try and match the magical of the item with the essence for optimal effect. If you combine an Angelic item with an Angelic Essence, you are almost guarenteed to get a rerolled Angelic item. If you combine a Magical Item with an Angelic Essence, you have a chance to get a Magical, Rare, Mystical, or Angelic rerolled item.

thank you for all that info (When you extract the Essence from an item) how do you extract??????????????????
but it still doesnt answer my question as to what the fuck essence is

It's an object, like a fish or glyph. It goes in those spaces at the bottom of your inventory and to get them you first put in one item into the mute box (a magical tier I is best to start with) and then click on the transmute and stabilize icons a bunch. You'll get the hang of it after you try it a while.

Then if you succeed with the single item you'll get an essence. Then take another item of the same tier and put that and the essence in the mute box and transmute those the same way. It will reroll the item that you threw in - but you can't get anything worth anything until you build up your proficiency a bit.
