This seems to either be a joke item or an early debug tool used for testing crafting. It appears that this book does not count towards the lore book achievement.Įxactly what the name says, you can find a couple of these buried near the chicken coop in Ranger HQ. When fused together, they create a lore book describing part of their relationship.
One is close to the clothes store, the other is near the dumpsters to the right of the nightclub entrance. The sound doesn’t seem to last very long, though.īrandi And Troy – A Love Story of Dueling Diariesīoth can be found in downtown Colorado Springs, in snow piles. This plan is only learned after crafting the working mix tape. The mix tape can be crafted by obtaining through a small chain of crafting involving the “Denver Ordnance” bunker in the east of the map. Note that most of the resources for these items are still classified as “junk” by the game, so be careful if you intend to craft them. It seems that these do not have any skill requirements. The item you are crafting only becomes revealed once you craft it for the first time. They generally require very specific materials, and you learn the recipe for a “mystery item” as soon as you pick up one of these materials. These recipes are less certain at the moment. As far as I have been able to test, they only unlock from raising one skill there are no recipes that need a specific perk or multiple different skills.Īs of now, the only skills that give you crafting recipes are armor modding, automatic weapons, explosives, first aid, mechanics, small arms, sniper rifles, weapon modding, and weird science.ġx Viscoelastic Plates, 1x Icy Carapace Shardġx Targeting Processor, 1x Combat Analysis Processorġx Polyxylylene Barrier, 1x Combat Analysis Processorġx Long Mag WARNING: This appears to be uncraftable right now, as it requires the recipe for a long mag, not an actual long mag.ġx Rubber Grip WARNING: This appears to be uncraftable right now, as it requires the recipe for a rubber grip, not an actual rubber grip.ġx Icy Carapace Shard, 1x Remote Control Chip
This also works retroactively logging in to an old save from before the update will immediately teach you all the skill-based recipes for which you are eligible. These recipes are the most basic – level up your skills high enough and you automatically unlock the recipes. Please note that this guide is composed of information I personally gathered, so in its current state it is far from complete and will be updated as time goes on. I try to keep spoilers to a minimum, but some spoilers are unavoidable when talking about unique gear and plan locations. Playing on the harder skill checks option does not affect crafting requirements or the skill levels at which you learn recipes.
Some mod recipes can only be learned from blueprints instead of leveling up the modding skills, too.
It is unknown whether this is due to bugs/oversights or if the developers intentionally left some mods uncraftable for balance reasons. Some mods can not be crafted or upgraded. Note, however, that this system is NOT exhaustive.
Weapon and armor mods basically allow you to pay scrap in order to upgrade your mods.Be wary that many of these items are still labeled as junk in your inventory and not as crafting components, so be mindful of what you sell once you find a recipe you are interested in. Pretty much every normal item requires scrap to craft special items do not, and instead use various junk items.However, this should be a last resort, as crafting such items costs the same amount of scrap as it would cost dollars to buy the same items without any barter/reputation discounts.
In what has been discovered so far, certain trends have emerged: The more complicated part is getting recipes, and that’s what this guide primarily focuses on. Some of these are pretty intuitive (crafting medical kits with first aid) and some are not (you need weird science, not big guns, to make flamethrower fuel). It seems that, for the most part, crafting is meant to complement your builds.
If you have any suggestions or corrections to make, feel free to leave them in the comments.Ĭrafting in this game is fairly simple as early on as in the tutorial, you can craft things by going into your inventory and clicking on the craft tab near the bottom. I will update the guide as more information becomes publicly available and/or when I progress further into my new playthrough. All of this information was collected by me in this current version of the game it might change with future patches, and it is definitely incomplete as of now. As the title says, this is a detailed composition of currently known information about the recent 1.4.0 update’s new feature, crafting.
