Evidence methodology

How to Test Cosmic Mart Item Interactions

Use controlled observations before publishing a best-item claim, multiplier, stack rule, or synergy recommendation.

Record a baseline

Capture the mercenary, visible item description, room context, and result before adding another variable.

Change one variable at a time

Avoid changing mercenary, room pressure, and several items simultaneously.

  • Record exact in-game names.
  • Keep screenshots of descriptions.
  • Repeat the interaction in more than one room.

Assign a confidence label

Use observed for one visible result, repeated for a reproduced result, and confirmed for an official statement or stable multi-run finding.

Avoid unsupported precision

Do not assign exact multipliers, drop rates, or tier positions when the evidence only shows that two effects appear together.
