White Knuckle’s introduction of the Amalgamator instantly changes how players gather and create essential items. Pulling objects from up to 10 meters away, this device revolutionizes inventory management and crafting speed right when quick resourcefulness matters most.
Through the Amalgamator, players can forge critical supplies such as Rebar, Rope Rebar, Handgun, Cryo-Gun, Food Bars, Floppy Disks, Trinkets, and Artifacts without tracking down every individual piece. This flexibility significantly streamlines resource use.
Below you’ll find a comprehensive list of Amalgamator crafting recipes to help optimize your gameplay and ensure you never miss a vital combination.
How the Amalgamator Works
Activating the Amalgamator allows you to pull in items from the environment. Hold it open and aim towards the objects you need; they will be drawn in automatically. Its ability to attract items from a distance enhances efficiency in cluttered or scattered areas.
Once you have collected all necessary materials for your desired recipe, stop gathering more. The device requires about 2 seconds to complete crafting, after which the item appears. Interrupting this process by picking up other items or shutting the Amalgamator cancels crafting.
This timing mechanic is crucial because premature actions reset the build, which can be frustrating during tense moments. Planning your pulls carefully ensures smooth and successful creation.
The Amalgamator’s reach extends to items within roughly 10 meters. This range allows you to gather scattered resources without physically moving to each one, saving time and minimizing exposure to hazards.
Be aware that recipes have a fixed priority order. Sometimes a combination of items might produce an unexpected result because a higher-priority recipe triggers instead. This system explains why certain common recipes don’t always yield the outcome you’d expect at first attempt.
Additionally, the term Scrap in recipes refers to either an empty Bean can or empty Milk carton. These interchangeable containers make many recipes flexible based on what you find in the world.
For clarity, whenever you see the word Scrap in the recipes below, it means either an empty Bean can or an empty Milk carton.

You can interchange between a Power Cell and four Flares, which proves useful depending on your crafting needs and item availability.
Ammo and Weapon Recipes
10mm Ammo requires one Flare, one empty Bean can or Milk carton, and a choice among Ruby Roach, Gold Roach, Lemon Roach, or Platinum Roach.
Flare Gun can be produced by combining two Flares with two pieces chosen from Spear, Rebar, Rope Rebar, Bone Spear, or Explosive Rebar.
Craft a Handgun by merging one Flare Gun, two Platinum Roaches, and one Auto Piton, Grapple Piton, or Piton.
Creating the Cryo-Gun calls for three Platinum Roaches, one Handgun, Flare Gun, or Cryo-Gun, plus one Power Cell. Interestingly, the recipe also accepts a regular Handgun as an alternative.
Remember, the Cryo-Gun recipe is versatile if you already have a Handgun; it simplifies the upgrade path.
Floppy Disk Recipes
When upgrading data storage items, the Amalgamator processes Floppy Disks through specific tiers.
| Result | Ingredients |
|---|---|
| Tier 1 Floppy Disk | 1 Paper Note + 1 empty Bean can / empty Milk carton |
| Tier 2 Floppy Disk | 2 Tier 1 Floppy Disks |
| Tier 3 Floppy Disk | 1 Tier 2 Floppy Disk + 1 Gold Roach / Lemon Roach / Tier 1 Floppy Disk |
Notably, a simple combination of an empty can plus a note produces a Tier 1 Floppy Disk, the foundation for higher-tier variants.
Roach Recipes
| Result | Ingredients |
|---|---|
| Platinum Roach | 3 Gold Roaches / Lemon Roaches |
| Ruby Roach | 2 Platinum Roaches |
| Red Roach | 1 Ruby, Gold, Lemon, or Platinum Roach + 1 Flare |
Minor Artifacts
Rho Stone can be crafted by either 1 Blink Eye + 2 Bricks or by 2 Blink Eyes + 1 Brick. This flexibility allows adaptation based on available materials.
The P-Beans recipe combines 2 Blink Eyes and 1 Beans, creating a minor yet useful artifact.
For a Cleaver, combine 4 empty Bean cans / empty Milk cartons, 1 Rapier, Auto Piton, Cleaver, Hammer, or Wrench, plus 1 Blink Eye. This recipe optimizes your collection of spare tools and scrap.
Cleaver – 4 empty Bean cans / empty Milk cartons + 1 Rapier, Auto Piton, Cleaver, Hammer, or Wrench + 1 Blink Eye → Cleaver
Trinket Recipes
Carabiner requires 1 Auto Piton, Grapple Piton, or Piton and 4 empty Bean cans / empty Milk cartons. The Carabiner is indispensable for climbing and gear management.
You can craft a Head Lamp by combining a Scanner, Flare Gun, or Flashlight with any Roach variety (Ruby, Gold, Lemon, Platinum) or an empty can/carton. This fusion offers vital light sources in dark environments.
A Random Trinket is created by fusing 1 Blink Eye, 1 Paper Note, and 1 empty Bean can / Milk carton, ideal when you want a surprise boost or resource at hand.
Artifact Recipes
The Rapier is assembled with 2 Blink Eyes, 1 Auto Piton, and 2 Platinum Roaches, making it a precise weapon for skilled combat scenarios.
A Remote combines 2 Blink Eyes, 1 Tier 2 Floppy Disk, and 1 Platinum Roach. This device expands range and control in key situations.
To craft a Spear, use 2 Blink Eyes, 3 items from Spear, Rebar, Rope Rebar, Bone Spear, or Explosive Rebar, plus 1 Ruby Roach and 1 Flare. This formidable weapon balances power and accessibility.
Translocator requires 3 Blink Eyes, 3 Gold or Lemon Roaches, and 3 empty Bean cans / Milk cartons. This artifact is critical for advanced movement strategies.
The Timepiece demands 2 Blink Eyes, 2 empty Bean cans / Milk cartons, 1 Platinum Roach, and 1 Tier 1 Floppy Disk. It serves as a multi-functional tool in exploration and timing.
Tier 3 Scanner
You can create a Tier 3 Scanner by combining:
1 Cryo-Gun, Flare Gun, or Handgun, 1 Trinket (not a Strange Disk), and 1 Gold Roach or Lemon Roach.
The restriction against using a Strange Disk for the Trinket slot means you need to carefully select your components for this advanced scanner build.
