Overview
Pure is the 1.5x mutation in Storage Hunters: Open World — a common entry in the 24-mutation roster. Pure ties with Moonlit at the 1.5x common-tier sub-slot.
Clean white-glow gradient — the lighter visual counterpart to Moonlit's dark purple. Applied to a Scrap Dominus ($565 base, the canonical mutation-stacking example from the mutation-strategy guide), a single Pure roll lands the item at roughly $848 pre-stack.
In Depth
Pure applies a 1.5x multiplier to an item's sell price. The mutation is identified visually by its clean white-glow gradient, and per the entity record it is obtainable through normal play (`obtain: yes`).
Like every confirmed mutation, Pure contributes additively when stacked with other mutations on the same item. The mutation-strategy guide states the rule plainly: "When an item rolls multiple mutations, the multipliers ADD — they do not multiply." A Silver (2x) plus Gold (4x) item sells for 6x base, not 8x. Read Pure's 1.5x the same way — it contributes 1.5x to whatever the total stack multiplier ends up being, not as a standalone "1.5x on top of everything else" effect.
Concretely: a Scrap Dominus ($565 base) with a single Pure roll lands at roughly $848. The same Scrap Dominus with the same Pure plus a Void (35x) lands at ($565 × (1.5 + 35 − 1)) = $20,057.5 — the additive math is what makes high-base items the right place to chase Pure stacks, not low-base junk loot.
Mechanics
- Multiplier: 1.5x (numeric 1.5), applied at sell time.
- Tier: common — shares this tier with other mutations (Antique, Silver, Tiny, Moonlit, Cobwebbed).
- Stacking rule: additive (not multiplicative). Multiple mutations on the same item combine into a single summed multiplier, per the mutation-strategy guide.
- Visual identifier: Clean white-glow gradient.
- Area-agnostic: the mutation system applies to every item regardless of which area's auction it came from — Junk Yard, Back Alley, Farmyard, and Shipyard all roll under the same rules.
- Source confidence: multiplier value verified against existing entity data; drop rates and per-area odds explicitly NOT documented per the mutation-strategy guide.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- 1.5x contribution to any item it rolls on — meaningful payout when applied to high-base loot.
- Additive stacking means this mutation always contributes its full value to a combined stack — no diminishing returns.
- Light multiplier — still positive, and contributes additively to stacks even if it does not pay off massively on its own.
- Area-agnostic — can roll on items from any of the four areas, so chasing it does not lock you into a specific progression stage.
Cons
- Stand-alone value is small — a single roll without other mutations on the same item produces only a modest premium.
- Drop rates and per-area odds are not publicly documented — strategic planning relies on volume play rather than targeted chasing.
- Even at this multiplier, a low-base item does not produce a large absolute dollar gain — focus on high-base loot.
- Combining mutations requires repeated favourable rolls on the same item, which the public wiki does not document as a controllable process.
Quick Reference
| Multiplier | 1.5x |
|---|---|
| Numeric Value (for stacking) | 1.5 |
| Tier | common |
| Visual Identifier | Clean white-glow gradient |
| Obtainable | Yes (drop conditions not exhaustively documented) |
| Stacking Rule | Additive — combines with other mutations as a sum, not a product (mutation-strategy guide) |
| Source Confidence | Multiplier verified against existing entity data + mutation-strategy guide |
How To Use
- Use the Mutation Stacker calculator (/tools/mutation-stacker) to model Pure's 1.5x contribution against any item base price before chasing the roll on auction.
- Stack Pure with other mutations to maximise return — remember the additive rule: a 1.5x plus another 5x mutation lands at 6.5x total, not 7.5x.
- Target Pure rolls on the highest-base items you can afford to bid on — Shipyard machinery (Industrial Robot Arm, Hydraulic Press) and Exclusive accessories (Gangster Dominus class) pay back the multiplier most clearly.
- Do not waste Pure on low-base Junk Yard loot ($0.10 floor items); the absolute dollar gain on a $0.10 base is too small to matter even at 1.5x.
- Track which auctions and areas tend to produce mutated items in your sessions — public sources do not document drop rates, so the only meaningful data is your own observation.
