Mixing Table Addition

Now that the Mixing Table branch has been tested and approved. Let’s take a look at what to expect after the update.

As you can see from the image, the mixing table is larger than your typical workbench structure. Depending how you choose to build, you will need to consider this within your base layout. There are 2 ways to acquire one of these for yourself. Either purchase a mixing table from a Bandit Outpost for the sum of 175 Scrap or research one via blueprint then craft it using 300 metal fragments + 5 high quality metal pieces. Once you get past this first step we can look at the recipes!

Recipes

There are 7 different types of tea and each of these have 3 crafting tiers. These tiers are Normal, Advanced, and Pure. In order to craft any of the teas to a higher tier, you need 5 teas in order to do so. For example: 5 Normal Teas can be made into 1 Advanced Tea. And 5 Advanced Teas can then be made into 1 Pure Tea. Simple right? Well almost.
One crucial bit of information to keep in mind is that you cannot throw any ol’ berries into the pot, you need specific berries and they must be placed in a certain order. This also applies when you’re crafting explosives. Below is the current recipe list;
