Essence Transfer is a gameplay feature in Diablo Immortal. Inspired by the Kanai's Cube from Diablo III: Reaper of Souls,[1] it allows extracting the essences of Legendary Items. , from and inheriting them onto any Legendary Item for the same slot.
Extract[]

Essence extraction menu
The essence of a legendary equipment can be extracted and stored in a collection. Extracting essence destroys the equipment. Essences extracted for the first time are added to the collection.
Essence Mastery[]
Extracting an essence already in the collection adds to Essence Mastery, shown as a green bar at the top of the Extract menu. Filling the bar grants a level in Essence Mastery, up to a maximum of 4. Each level of Mastery improves the quality of all legendary equipments.
Essence Mastery is counted separately for each class.
Loyalty Bonus[]
Players have a chance to automatically receive a pre-selected essence whenever they extract another essence. The Loyalty Bonus (and the chance to get it) is shown on the bottom left corner of the Extract menu. Extracting essences increase the chance to be granted the Loyalty Bonus,[2] until a guaranteed chance after 400 extractions.
The chances of getting loyalty bonus are not reset by changing class.
Inherit[]

Essence inheritance menu
A legendary gear can be changed by inheriting an essence from another gear of the same same equipment slot. Any essence to be inherited must be in the collection of extracted essence. Inheriting an essence changes the Legendary property, name, icon, 3D model, and flavor text of a legendary gear.[1]
Transmogrify[]
Transmogrification is unlocked at an Essence Mastery of 1. Some legendary equipment also have a transmogrification option once their essences have been added to the collection. Transmogrification replaces the appearance of the player's attire with that of another legendary, but otherwise has no effect on gameplay.[3]
Transmogrified appearance replaces that of cosmetics, and vice versa.
