The Recombinator is a crafting device that lets you combine two magic or rare weapons, armour, or jewellery of the same item class into a new item. It can be accessed via Gwennen, Rog, or Tujen. It is unlocked after completing your first Expedition, and requires artifacts found during the Expedition to fuel it.

Mechanics

Players can input two items of the same item category into the recombinator and select one or more desired modifiers from each item to merge into a new single item.

As more modifiers are selected, the chance of success decreases. Additionally, higher-tier modifiers have a lower chance of success. If the craft fails, both input items will be destroyed without creating an output item.

The output item will choose the base type of one of the input items at 50% chance each. The item level is the average of both items.

The Expedition artifact cost of the recombination depends on the category of item being recombinated, as well as the item levels of the input items:

• Weapons: Broken Circle ArtifactBroken Circle ArtifactStack Size: 20These can be used to trade with Gwennen or to combine items at the Recombinator.
• Armours: Order ArtifactOrder ArtifactStack Size: 20These can be used to trade with Rog or to combine items at the Recombinator.
• Jewellery: Black Scythe ArtifactBlack Scythe ArtifactStack Size: 20These can be used to trade with Tujen or to combine items at the Recombinator.

The recombination animation can be skipped by closing the menu; if the item would have succeeded, the base the output item will become will remain visible in your inventory greyed out until the animation finishes.

Restrictions

• If both input items have a modifier of the same mod group (e.g. any +# to Strength modifier shares the "Strength" mod group), only one can be selected.
• If three total prefixes or suffixes are selected from either input item, no more prefixes or suffixes can be selected.
  • This may be bypassable with certain base types such as Penumbra RingPenumbra Ring+2 Prefix Modifier allowed
    -2 Suffix Modifier Allowed
• Fractured modifiers cannot be selected. However, fractured items can still be used as an input item.
