Input stacks
Build the haul
The list is deliberately conservative: a crafting recipe alone is not proof that an item can be recycled.
Expected haul
Combined output
- Scrap
- 5
- High Quality Metal
- 1
Each resource is rounded down after the selected efficiency is applied. Condition-based losses and server-specific settings are not included.
Quick answers
Frequently asked questions
Why does the calculator list fewer items than the item database?
Only items with explicit recycle metadata in the current dataset are included. The calculator does not guess recyclability from a crafting recipe.
Why can a safe-zone recycler return less?
The calculator applies the selected recycler efficiency to eligible crafting ingredients and explicit scrap output, then rounds each output down.
Can several item stacks be combined?
Yes. Add each stack and the calculator merges matching outputs into one haul list.
