Transmutation

Transmutation converts items into other items through timed recipes. It runs inside your Refinery, and is unlocked by the Transmutation Research node.

How it works

• Commit the input items for a recipe, wait for it to finish, then claim the output.
• It needs an active Refinery Module. Speed grows with your Refinery's total Module levels and the Transmutation Speed upgrade.
• Transmutation makes no heat and ignores the Refinery's operating mode.
• Recipes cost only their input items, no Salvage. Conversions can lose value, so compare inputs and outputs before committing.

Recipe groups

Group	What it does
Gemeralds up and down	Combine lower Gemeralds into higher ones (up to Pluperfect), or split them back down
Action boosts	Upscale high-tier Personal Boost items, or convert between actions. Uses Pluperfect Gemeralds
Pet and farm boosts	Upgrade pet and farm boost items

Boost recipes take three times as long as Gemerald recipes.

Queue

With the Transmutation Queue Research node and the matching upgrade, you can line up several recipes to run back to back. Later steps can use the output of earlier ones.
