	“Fragment chance 10–30%” is not a live per-depth guarantee. Item weight rises ~~with~~ depth and difficulty, then specialist / sensor / class bonuses.		“Fragment chance 10–30%” is not a live per-depth guarantee. Item weight rises up to depth 3 and with difficulty, then specialist / sensor / class bonuses.

			Past depth 3, each item type (relic pieces, monument pieces, nano boosts, tech boosts) loses '''2 percentage points''' of chance per extra depth, down to a floor of '''2%'''. For example, a 10% monument chance at depth 3 becomes 8% at depth 4, 6% at depth 5, 4% at depth 6 and 2% from depth 7. Types already below 2% are not reduced. The lost chance becomes an empty roll; resource, ship and cosmetic chances are unchanged.
