Thanks for that.
I remembered (wrongly) Longzhus don't work for +Alien stuff, but turns out that modifier is checked only for devices, and +EnergyWeapon is the only restriction for weapons. :roll:

I took a look at the Chart on the wiki, but it still makes no sense to me.
One question: how do I replicate M5 Nemisis Missiles? they are the rarest
human ammunition in the game.
If Transcendence was made in 3D, I would die of Happiness.

WARNING: Spoiler-ish

M5 Nemesis is level 10 ammunition. The fabricator needs 10 material and 10 energy to replicate M5 ammo. No disposition is required, so no food is necessary. Steps:

1. Drop enough fuel into the pit until the total level is at least 10. Depending what you feed it next, you may need more fuel. If you have pteracnium fuel, just drop two in for 14 energy.

2. Drop enough armor or non-fuel ore until material is at least 10. If you do not know which ore increases what, just feed it armor. If you feed it armor, each armor item reduces fuel by 1. For example, two level VI blast plate is worth 12, and reduces fuel by 2. If fuel drops below 10, feed it more fuel.

3. Drop an M5 missile into the pit. You will gain from 8 to 12 missiles back.

Note: There are other items you can substitute for feed, but this should be simple enough.

Thanx, PM. Now that I see the power of the Fabricator, My question is,
WHY DOES ANYONE PLAY THIS GAME WITHOUT USING IT!?!!??
It is spectacular! I only got M2/Vulcans last playthru, but it is still awesome.

A player will not use the fabricator effectively unless he spoils himself with the tables and stashes plenty of items in various places near a fabricator. Fabricators also appear late, which means the player will need a jumpdrive or gems of despair if he wants to fabricate stuff around midgame.

Yes, But Thor's and AO's carry Jumpdrives. And one Gem can get you enough
Fabricated stuff to effectively Skip the entire Midgame.
