Entomologist Badge
Tier 2 Attack
Entomologist Badge is a Tier 2 trinket in Grounded. Its effect is Attack. In-game it is described as: "A badge from an ominent scientist, granting access to their specific department of work."
A trinket occupies a utility slot โ it grants a passive effect rather than raw armor or damage, so it competes with your damage and survival perks for that slot.
The effect it grants is Attack, which is what you are really equipping it for; the slot is better spent here than on a trinket whose effect you will not trigger.
It is found in BBQ Spill.
Verdict: Overall Entomologist Badge is a Tier 2 trinket best used when its Attack effect fits the fight ahead.
Where to find: BBQ Spill
