Crimson Moon Gear & Purification Checker

Purification is the covered return of eligible gear to Sanctus Clypeus. When an eligible item comes back to Sanctus on a covered return—whether you return between missions, after death, or after successfully completing the full run—it is automatically purified. There is no Purify button.

Purification separates two things players often mix up: the found Tier, which belongs to the current run, and the permanent Collection unlock, which starts at Common for a newly discovered item. A higher found Tier does not set the permanent minimum quality.

A newly discovered item can be used at its found Tier during the current run. When it is purified, its first permanent Collection unlock starts at Common—so a Rare drop becoming a Common Collection entry is the verified mechanic, not a bug.

The found Tier never writes to the permanent minimum quality. Raising that minimum is a separate action: a permanent Gajov upgrade.

Returning to Sanctus between missions does not end the active run. Because the run is still active, the Loadout Station can remain locked until the run ends. The verified rules still allow gear swapping within the current mission/run context.

A between-mission Hub return (run stays active) and successfully completing the full run (run ends) are different states with different outcomes—the checker asks you to pick the right one.

An Innate Boon is fixed to the equipment at the generic mechanism level. A Temporary Boon applies only to the current run and should not be expected in the next run.

Item-specific Innate Boon details require verification on the item card in your current game version.

Buying gear from Gajov and permanently upgrading gear with Gajov are different actions. A purchase gives you the item at the purchased Tier for the current run, but its permanent Collection unlock still starts at Common.

A permanent Gajov upgrade raises the item’s minimum quality for future loadouts and drops. Exact costs, caps, and Legendary rules are not covered.

In the covered case, eligible gear—equipped, carried in your inventory, or in your stash—returned to Sanctus can be automatically purified, including the verified death-return case. Equipped is not safer than carried or stashed eligible gear on covered returns.

The higher Tier found during the run and Temporary Boons do not become next-run properties. Discarded or lost items, quitting mid-run, crashes, save rollback, and co-op disconnects are not covered.
