GRAIN ROT Grinder and Gold: Sell Only After the Outpost Decision Is Clear

Give the item one of three jobs

A recovered item can support the Outpost, enable progression, or become gold. Assign the job before grinding it.

If the direct use is unknown, hold the item until that uncertainty is resolved rather than treating every unfamiliar object as sale stock.

Use current values

Patch changes can alter economy and priority. Record the build with any Grinder value and avoid copying a table whose source cannot be reproduced.

The better comparison is net next-run value, not the largest visible sale number.

Review what the gold bought

After spending, note whether the purchase changed the next run as expected. Gold that sits unused or buys an untested option did not solve the Outpost bottleneck.

That feedback improves future sell decisions more than a universal loot tier list.
