Occurrences in Honkai: Star Rail's Simulated Universe is one of the most exciting features as players can get interesting upgrades from some of them. However, while most of these events have positive outcomes, a chunk of them can be harmful and useless for the players.

Cosmic Merchant (Part 1), for instance, is a terrible event to come across in Honkai: Star Rail Simulated Universe. Fortunately, the occurrence gets better in Cosmic Con Job (Part 2), and becomes excellent in Cosmic Altruist (Part 3).

Shopping Channel is one of the many events in Honkai: Star Rail Simulated Universe that has unknown outcomes.

Cosmic Merchant (Part 1) Event In Honkai: Star Rail

cosmic merchant part 1 simulated universe event occurrence honkai star rail-1

Choice

Outcome

Purchase a metal Wish-In-A-Bottle.

Consume 100 Cosmic Fragments and obtain a 1-star Blessing.

Purchase a silver ore Wish-In-A-Bottle.

Consume 200 Cosmic Fragments and obtain a Negative Curio.

Leave.

Nothing.

Cosmic Merchant (Part 1) in Honkai: Star Rail is a scam. The first option, metal Wish-In-A-Bottle, gives a mere 1-star Blessing for the "good value Blessing" gimmick. Meanwhile, the silver ore Wish-In-A-Bottle is even worse as the "surprising Curio" apparently means Negative Curio.

Cosmic Con Job (Part 2) Event In Honkai: Star Rail

cosmic con job part 2 simulated universe event occurrence honkai star rail-1

Choice

Outcome

Purchase an amber Wish-In-A-Bottle.

Consume 100 Cosmic Fragments and obtain a Normal Curio.

Purchase a supernium Wish-In-A-Bottle.

Consume 100 Cosmic Fragments and obtain a 1-3 star Blessing.

Leave.

Nothing.

Cosmic Con Job (Part 2) in Honkai: Star Rail has better outcomes than Cosmic Merchant (Part 1), but it's still quite a gamble for its 100 Cosmic Fragments price. By purchasing the amber Wish-In-A-Bottle, players will get a Normal Curio labeled as "enigmatic Curio." As for supernium Wish-In-A-Bottle, "dreamlike Blessing" ranges from 1-3 star Blessings. All in all, players who have plenty of luck can nicely make use of this Simulated Universe Occurrence, although in general, it's not really worth it.

Players can get Cosmic Con Job (Part 2) after experiencing Cosmic Merchant (Part 1).

Cosmic Altruist (Part 3) Event In Honkai: Star Rail

cosmic altruist part 3 simulated universe event occurrence honkai star rail-1

Choice

Outcome

Purchase a diamond box.

Consume 10 Cosmic Fragments and enhance 3 random Blessings.

Purchase an ore box.

Consume 10 Cosmic Fragments and obtain a 3-star Blessing.

Leave.

Nothing.

Cosmic Altruist (Part 3) in Honkai: Star Rail is 100% worth it. Both options lead to great rewards, where, for a mere 10 Cosmic Fragments, a "tempting reward" equals a free random enhancement to three Blessings, whereas a "tantalizing reward" grants a 3-star Blessing from the available options.

Cosmic Altruist (Part 3) becomes available once Trailblazers go through the Cosmic Con Job (Part 2) occurrence.
